She’s no stranger to wowing with an array of red carpet looks.
But while posing with the cast of RuPaul‘s Drag Race at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday, Taylor Swift offered insight into the scents that perfectly match her showstopping outfits.
The hitmaker, 34, who was the big winner of the night with seven gongs, posed for a fun group snap with a group of queens at the event and was asked by one which perfume she’d chosen for the evening.
In footage posted by the official RuPaul’s Drag Race account on X, Xunami Muse asks the star: ‘You smell so good. What is that?’ before imitating a perfume spray.
Taylor then replied: ‘Oh thank you! It’s Tom Ford!’ with Xunami replying:’Tom Ford!! It’s so nice!’

While Taylor didn’t specify which Tom Ford scent she’d chosen, the star is known to be a fan of the designer’s Santal Blush perfume.
In her Netflix documentary, titled Miss Americana, a bottle of the scent could be seen backstage.
The scent is also described as a textured scent with strong notes of sandalwood and exotic spices, made from ‘luxe ylang-ylang, warm cinnamon, and sumptuous woods,’ with a 50ml bottle costing an eye-watering £222.
Swifties have also previously speculated that Taylor is a fan of Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille scent, which boasts key notes of tobacco leaf, vanilla, and ginger.
Taylor had Swifties tearing up as she thanked ‘magical’ boyfriend Travis Kelce while making history by earning her 30th VMA in her career.
The megastar – who led the star-studded red carpet – made a rare comment about about her Kansas City Chiefs star beau, as she took home the biggest award of the night Video of the Year at the gala event held at UBS Arena in Long Island, New York.
She – who earned seven total awards this evening alone – was recognized for her collab with Post Malone titled Fortnight who also joined her on stage along with her team.
Taylor recognised her boyfriend of nearly a year during her speech, saying: ‘And you know, the things that this video seems very sad when you watch it, but it was like the most fun video to make and something I will always remember, is that when I would finish I take and I would say cut and we’d be done with the take.
‘I would always just hear someone cheering and like woo from across the studio where we were shooting it and that one person was my boyfriend Travis.

‘Everything this man touches turns into happiness and find a magic so I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I will always remember that. ‘
It was a history making night for Taylor as she became the most decorated solo artist ever by earning 30 VMAs. She is technically tied with Beyonce at that number but the Cowboy Carter artist had previously won 2 with her former girl group Destiny’s Child.
Earlier in the night, Taylor was the first artist to take home the coveted Moon Person as the megastar earned the win in the Best Collab category alongside Post Malone.
Taylor and the 29-year-old rapper earned the major win for their music video for hit single Fortnight.
As the award show landed on the 23rd anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Taylor did not forget to recognize that dark day when she began her acceptance speech
She said: ‘You guys, I wanted to say waking up this morning in New York on September 11th, I’ve been thinking about what happened 23 years ago.
‘Everyone who lost a loved one, everyone that we lost, and that’s the most important thing about today. And everything that happens tonight.’
Meanwhile, Sabrina Carpenter had the biggest upset of the night as she defeated her mentor Taylor.
The 25-year-old hitmaker earned the coveted Song Of The Year Moon Person over the pop megastar for her smash hit Espresso.
Taylor was nominated for her song Fortnight, which was a collaboration with Post Malone.
Beyonce ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’, Jack Harlow ‘Lovin On Me’, Kendrick Lamar ‘Not Like Us’, and Teddy Swims ‘Lose Control’ were also nominated.
