Britney Spears Opens Up About New Song "Perfume," Says Ballad "Hits Close to Home, We're talking about "Perfume," a ballad from her upcoming album, Britney Jean.

"'Perfume' is incredibly special to me because it hits close to home, and I think the story is relatable to everyone," the pop princess tells me exclusively. "Everyone's been through an insecure moment in a relationship that's left them vulnerable and I think this song captures that."

The song is set to debut tomorrow on Facebook. Britney Jean, Spears' eighth studio album, goes on sale Dec. 3. Its first single "Work Bitch" dropped in mid-September.

"I have been through a lot in the past few years and it has really inspired me to dig deeper and write songs that I think everyone can relate to," Spears wrote in a recent letter to her fans posted on her website. "Working with people like Sia, William Orbit, and of course will.i.am has been an amazing experience.

They have listened to all of my ideas and helped me bring them to life. There are a lot of really fun, upbeat dance songs, but it was important to me that I show my strength, and my attitude, and my vulnerability. Of course, I also have some surprises for you guys ;)

"I want to show you the different sides of Britney Spears," she wrote. "I am a performer. I am a Mom. I am funny. I am your friend! I am Britney Jean."

In December, the mother of two will launch her two-year residency, Piece of Me, at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
