- Los Angeles, June 30 (IANS) Singer Jennifer Lopez has topped a list of making the most profitable range of perfumes, earning $80 million out of it.
The singer banked the amount from her range of 18 perfumes that she released in the past 10 years, reports contactmusic.com.
The 42-year-old defeated actress Sarah Jessica Parker and singer Madonna.
Singer Britney Spears' range which includes "Believe" and "Fantasy" was the fourth largest selling range. Singer Avril Lavigne came fifth, reports online beauty products retailer Escentual.com.
The company's founder Rakesh Aggarwal said Lopez's role as judge in "America Idol" helped her raise the sales.
