“Good golly, Miss Dolly!” That’s the name of the best Hannah Montana episode and what I said when I found out about Dolly Parton’s latest perfume launch.
After years of providing the world with affordable fragrances (and more recently, a line of eye-catching color cosmetics under her brand Dolly Beauty) , the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame decided to do something a little different and incredibly special this holiday. season. Dolly Parton’s Crystal Edition Parfum will be released on December 4th, an ultra-limited edition fragrance that “encapsulates Dolly’s charm, elegance and iconic sparkle.”
A more concentrated version of her Scent From Above Eau de Parfum, this luxurious fragrance features top notes of bergamot, Anjou pear, water lily and wild freesia. Jasmine, orange blossom, rosebud, crème de cassis, and dahlia take center stage, with a base of sandalwood, patchouli, and caramelized amber.
In true Parton fashion, the fragrance is housed in a crystal bottle and crowned with a rhinestone-encrusted butterfly cap, a nod to the rhinestone-encrusted hat she wore in the campaign. Similar to wings. (Guess which came first?) Due to the delicate nature of the bottle, special care instructions are included. Always turn the butterfly cap counterclockwise when opening it. However, you can appreciate it from any angle.

Priced at $500, only 1,946 bottles of the fragrance, named after Parton’s birth year, will be sold. Each one is individually numbered and naturally Dolly has Bottle #1. I’d like to think number 2 belongs to Miley Cyrus, but maybe it’s yours?
And while that price may seem steep, especially considering most of the brand’s fragrances cost up to $59.99, hear me out. This is Dolly we’re talking about. She’s never going to steer you in the wrong direction. Plus, can you imagine how these rhinestones will catch the light when placed on your vanity? Priceless.
“Sometimes I’ll be rummaging through old boxes or drawers or whatever, and I’ll find an old bottle of perfume, and it brings me back to that moment,” Parton told Birdie in a September interview. . “It just washes over you like water somehow. So it brings up your memories. Some aren’t necessarily good, some are good, but still, it doesn’t bring up your memories. Yes, there is no doubt about it.”
