Jamie Dornan loves to indulge in "opera baths".

The 'Fifty Shades of Grey' star has revealed he stepped up his bath time routine on the advice of a friend who recommended he should listen to classical music while in the tub and Jamie now treats himself to lavender bubbles, a bottle of red wine and chocolate while he gives himself a good soak.

Jamie told Vogue: " A very dear friend of mine was once round at our house for dinner, and when he went home, he said he was going to have an ‘opera bath’ and asked if I’d ever had one ... It’s quite self-explanatory, but you make the bath quite bubbly – I’m a lavender fan – and bring speakers in and listen to opera.

"Maybe bring in a little bottle of red wine and a bowl of M Ms too. I’ve done it a few times. It’s indulgent and ridiculous."

However, Jamie - who has three daughters with wife Amelia Warner - admits he can only really indulge his opera baths when he's away from home where he won't be interrupted by the kids.

He added: "It’s the sort of thing I do if I’m away filming, so my kids can’t come in and disturb me."

Jamie is a Global Brand Ambassador for fashion house Loewe and he stars in the company's new perfume campaign. He went on to reveal working on the fragrance adds taught him to experiment with scents.

He explained: "Loewe like to recommend a bit of mix and match, which I was a bit fearful of, but when I went for some dinner with friends the other night, I did a spritz of Earth and then mixed it with Escencia and they actually worked really well together. They’re all really beautiful."
