This energetic and versatile woman has founded a charity foundation The Fleur de Lys, a branch of the Order of Fleur de Lys. Jun 18. in Zug (Switzerland) HRH Princess Elizabeth was nominated for the Award of worldwide movement for nuclear disarmament "Demirigus Peace International".

Several years after it was presented in the USA, the first fragrance by Princess Jelisaveta Karađorđević was highly welcomed in Belgrade. In 2002, the fragrance E HRH Princess Elizabeth, also known as fragrance of the four flowers, and "The Fragrance of the White Palace", was presented in the Pavilion Cvijeta Zuzorić at Kalemegdan. At that occasion the Princess said: "I have created a fragrance that has integrated four flowers which symbolize the four most important moments of my life. Each of these moments was marked by one flower. The first one I discovered in the garden of the White Palace, and then, when I was far away, I continued looking for it."

"E" was named after the Russian Grand Duchess Elena Romanoff, Princess Jelisaveta's grandmother Elena Vladimirovna Romanova. She was a daughter of Vladimir Aleksandrovič Romanoff, brother of the last Russian emperor Nikolai II. And one of the four flowers of this fragrant bouquet was devoted to her - orange blossom, the scent of which Princess Jelisaveta vividly remembers from the garden of Grand Duchess Elena Romanoff in Athens, in which the orange trees smelled heavenly. The four white flowers are the heart of this fragrance – jasmine, white iris, orange blossom and white hyacinth. Beside these, E has captured other white flowers, gardenia and lily of the valley.

"Mon Ange" gets a new appearance and name when presented by HRH Princess Jelisaveta, two days before the end of 2004. The fragrance was presented as Jelisaveta, and it was inspired by the optimism and spirit of Princesses' close friends, and devoted to all young women. At that event Princess Jelisaveta said: "I would like to present you the fragrance that wears my name. It brings the blend of essential scents of orange and lemon."

Jelisaveta is joyful and luminous, with dazzling freshness of citruses that seem to be dancing in the rhythm of Mediterranean. It is bright just like the spring time sun. Jelisaveta has captured a spring time bouquet of honeysuckle, orange blossom, linden blossom and jasmine, freshened with the dominant citrusy notes of orange and lemon.
