Glow by JLo is a women's fragrance endorsed by American entertainer, Jennifer Lopez, and released through Coty Incorporated. It was conceived as far back as 1998, when Lopez announced a lifestyle line that would include a fragrance. Contradictory to assumptions that it would be unsuccessful, it performed extremely well, becoming America's top-selling fragrance. Glow Industries filed a lawsuit against Lopez and Coty to not use the term "Glow", however a judge denied their request. Along with products from Lopez's fashion and lifestyle line, it brought in over $300 million by 2004. Subsequently, Glow became a successful woman's fragrance line.
Glow has spawned several flankers, with the first being Miami Glow, and most recent being L.A. Glow. In May 2012, she released her eighteenth fragrance, Glowing by JLo, which was described as the "evolution" of Glow and marked her 10-year anniversary working with Coty, Inc. Since Glow, Lopez has been credited with influencing other celebrity endorsements of fragrance, which has included Halle Berry, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and Madonna, among others.
On April 2, 1998, it was announced during a press conference that Lopez would be launching a clothing line, entitled J.Lo by Jennifer Lopez, in time for the holiday season. The line, which would eventually also include eyewear, swimwear, accessories and a fragrance, was backed up by an investment group led by Andy Hilfiger and Larry Stemmerman. Of the fragrance, Lopez said: "I wanted Glow to be fresh and clean, but still sexy and sensual – something that feels like you just came out of the shower and are the sexiest person in the world."Glow by J.Lo contains notes of: orange, grapefruit, jasmine, orris, irises, vanilla and musk. Lopez said the fragrance was created to fit what she would want to wear herself. The perfume is a combination of Lopez's favorite scents. The fragrance is packaged in a clear white bottle, with curvaceous lines to look like a woman's body. Lopez's "J.Lo" logo is written in rhinestones on the bottle. It comes with a complimentary chain inspired by Lopez's style.
