A spokesperson from The Fragrance Shop, where the scent is being sold, described how each band member had contributed to the process.

'Aston loved the cheeky cassis note.

'Orits added the sensual black orchid as it is his favourite flower.

'Marvin adores Tuberose, and JB wanted the hypnotic scent of amber crystals lingering on the skin.'

The scent, priced at 13.50 for 30ml, is contained in a white bottle, complete with magnetic lid and each box comes signed with a kiss.

In a previous message, the boys told fans:

'We are very excited to announce that JLS will be launching a new female fragrance! more info will be coming soon! JLSHQ x.'

JLS follow a number of other music stars and celebrities with their own perfume range, including Nicki Minaj, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber and Katy Perry.

They have recently been in Las Vegas celebrating Marvin Humes' stag party ahead of his marriage to The Saturdays' Rochelle Wiseman later this year.
