While it is quite common for celebrities and other prominent figures in pop culture to come out with their own perfumes, now the Japanese band Perfume is releasing its own fragrance called 'Perfume of Perfume.'
The scent of the perfume was formulated around the actual aromatic oil that the trio uses to prepare themselves for a concert. It includes energizing ingredients like ylang ylang, grapefruit, lavender, rose and clove.
Creating a perfume has been in the minds of the band members for quite some time and now this dream is finally becoming a reality thanks to the department store Mitsukoshi Isetan. Rather than being sold in an extravagant bottle for one's vanity, Perfume of Perfume is being sold in the form of a compact stick for on-the-go use.
