Beyonce brings her scent to Manhattan.
The mega-star debuted her new fragrance, Beyonce Pulse, at Macy's department store in New York.
The new mom-to-be kicked off the event by posing for photos in a cream Lanvin dress - that only showed a hint of her baby bump.
Once inside the store, the singer expressed her appreciation to fans.
