The ‘Steal My Girl’ hitmakers’ ‘You & I’ perfume is fifth on the list and will also see them bag another 240,000 units, giving them a combined total of £1.34m.
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Nicki Minaj and Katy Perry’s perfumes also made the top six of the best-selling list with Rihanna, Victoria Beckham, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga making the top 10.
Fragrance expert Rakesh Aggarwal of online beauty retailer escentual.com said: “It’s been a very strong year for celebrity fragrances and it’s all about the pop stars.
“Their perfume sales have put them up there with the big players in the market – the designer fragrances – and Beyonce is the ninth top selling fragrance of all categories which is remarkable.”
Escentual.com CEO Rakesh Aggarwal added: “Most celebrities earn around £2 per bottle sold of fragrance.
“Clearly deals vary in every case but generally it’s around 8 to 10% royalty on the profit, so with the huge number of sales for these celebrities in the top ten they are going to have a rather lucrative Christmas this year.”
