Hilary Swank says she smells "really pretty". The Oscar-winning actress, who played a transgender teen in 'Boys Don't Cry' and a tough boxer in 'Million Dollar Baby', loves dressing up and putting on perfume and make-up.

Hilary - who is the face of cosmetic firm Guerlain and its new perfume My Insolence - said: "All those characters I'm well known for aren't as girlie-girl as I am. It's fun to dress up and smell pretty and have pretty compacts in your purse."

"I smell really pretty. I have a lot of perfume, so much that I could bathe in it. I've also been supplied with lots of make-up. It's so old Hollywood. It's in beautiful gold containers."

The 33-year-old star is happy as long as her boyfriend John Campisi likes the way she smells.

She said: "He does love the scent, so that's all that matters."

Later this month, Hilary will cut off her hair on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' and donate her locks to women who are suffering from cancer.

She said: "That's going to be wonderful. I've been growing my hair for months, so it's super-long and super-healthy. I've had conditioning treatments every four weeks. Everyone is commenting on my hair and how it's long and pretty and healthy and shiny. All the better for a woman in need."
