(AP) You don't have to bend it like Beckham to smell like the soccer star.
David Beckham and his Spice Girl wife, Victoria, now have their own brand of his-and-hers fragrances — Intimately Beckham.
"Why is this different from any other celebrity fragrance? The fact that (I) have spent a lot of time checking all the details," Victoria Beckham told Women's Wear Daily. "We are not just saying, 'We are celebrities, put our name on it.' I love to be involved with the whole process."
The scents, which sell for $25 to $55 and were introduced last week in Beverly Hills, will be available at department stores next month and at drugstores in January. Industry sources estimate the Beckham fragrance franchise, which also includes Instinct by David Beckham, will generate $100 million in worldwide sales this year and twice that next year, according to Women's Wear Daily.Photos: Party With The Beckhams
The British couple and their three sons moved to Los Angeles last month after David signed on to play Major League Soccer with the Los Angeles Galaxy. Victoria Beckham, who describes herself as "a working mum," is also developing a signature line of clothing and sunglasses. She will appear with the Spice Girls during the group's reunion tour in December and January.

"We are starting to say trunk instead of boot, trash instead of rubbish," Victoria Beckham said. Added her husband: "We are starting to get it, slowly."

Victoria Beckham is a sexless toothpick. Does she ever eat anything? What does he see in her?
He's a lot better looking than she is. Especially if he got rid of his silly tattoos.
Posh seems to be obsessed with being trendy &
looking like she just stepped out of a fashion mag.
Victoria Beckham looks like a manequin to me.
Saw him in a suit sitting on a bench during a recent LA Galaxy match vs Toronto. You could see the stupid tattoo on his neck. So tacky & cheap.
Easy to tell who rules the House of Beckham.
