Heidi Klum’s Fragrance ‘Surprise’ Challenges ‘Project Runway’ Designers

Heidi took her hosting duties to a new level on the Feb. 7 episode of 'Project Runway' as she presented the designers with a difficult challenge -- to use her fragrance as inspiration to create an outfit Heidi herself will wear! What an honor! Heidi Klum, 39, brought the designers a pink "surprise" in the work room -- and as usual, the contestants were anxious to find out what their challenge would be! Heidi's fragrance "Surprise," which hit stores in Feb. 2013, was the muse for the challenge. They were told to use the fragrance, packaging and color scheme to translate the perfume into fabric! Keep reading for more on the challenge and her new scent!

Each team had to create six looks for Heidi to wear. The two winning looks will be featured in the advertising campaign and the other worn by Heidi at a launch event.

Heidi Klum’s New Perfume

“I love my new fragrance, Surprise, and I was so excited to share it with the designers for my Project Runway challenge this season. Fragrance is an extension of a woman’s style, so this was the perfect collaboration for the show. Surprise is really feminine and sexy, but with a little edge so I was excited to see what all of the designers would come up with.  I love the winning looks that we chose and I can’t wait for everyone to see the amazing ad campaign.”

Where You Can Get Heidi’s Fab Fragrance

The fragrance is affordable, ranging from $17 to $35 and available at department and drug stores. The notes in it are accentuated with “mandarin and pink pepper extracts, rose and magnolia, plus benzoin and milk of sandalwood.”
