Ah, the smell of victory.

Nicole Kidman – who has been dubbed one of the most overpaid celebrities – was awarded substantial damages over a claim that she snubbed Chanel No. 5 by promoting a rival perfume, the Associated Press reports.

Details of the settlement were not disclosed.

Kidman's attorney John Kelly said Kidman had suffered considerable embarrassment and distress over a recent article in London's The Daily Telegraph claiming that Kidman had carried a bottle of a competitor's perfume while she was in London to promote The Golden Compass.

The Daily Telegraph said the source of the report made up the story.

Kidman plans to donate the money to Unifem, the United Nations Development Fund for Women.
