The first pictures are emerging of Lady Gaga’s fragrance, Fame. The picture above was posted on Twitter by Lady G herself after various leaks appeared on the internet. The juice is black… something previously done by niche fragrance brand, Nassimato with their Black Afgano fragrance.. but no panic.. it turns clear on spraying. Working with Coty, Lady G apparently wanted the fragrance to smell like an ‘expensive hooker’ and wanted to extract ‘the sort of feeling and sense of blood and semen from molecular structures’. Bizarrely, this again has already been done by another niche brand, Etat Libre D’Orange with their ‘Secretion Magnifique’ who also have a hooker reference in their line-up with Putain des Palaces. And if that’s not quite enough, erm, hommage, to niche brands, Lady Gaga’s blood sample is somehow integrated into the fragrance- not dissimilar to Blood Concept, yet another niche fragrance brand, that lets you choose your scent by blood type.
Well, they do say there is no such thing as a new idea

With all that going on there should be an adult content warning attached to it. Can’t really see that description going down well at Christmas with parents!
And welcome to the worst case of Narcissistic personally disorder the world has seen so far. Anything to be contraversial and ‘original’.. yet as you say.. there is no such things as a new idea! Looks very cheap, and unappealing, there are ways to capture a hooker scent without going down the cheap packaging route. Yawn Gaga.
yawn yawn and yawn.
I do usually like Gaga but this seems like a bit of a rehash of niche brand ideas. And the bottle reminds me of Alien.
I kinda like that the actual perfume has a color… Aquolina should make a hot pink version of Pink Sugar 😉
I was just listening to the radio and the presenter said that the description of the scent sounded like an air freshener 🙂 made me smile!
I love lady gaga but this does seem a bit silly.
Would love to smell it though, I wonder what the odour of a hooker smells like?! Don’t you?
I can’t think what “niche” group of consumers this sort of thing appeals to. Bodily fluids don’t spring to mind when I think of fragrance.
Blood sample?! Ewwwwwww!
can’t think of anything that sounds as unappealing as this does. looks quite cheap too! I like the black perfume idea but its already been done so its nothing new anymore. But then she never was anything new..
Bottle is just like Thierry Mugler Alien!
I tried this today (from a Coty lovely) and have to say Lady Gaga has absolutely achieved her goal – it smells precisely as I’d imagine ‘an expensive hooker’ to smell.
Very commercial and synthetic, I reckon it’ll be a big hit with teen fans though, if they can rustle up the, no doubt, exorbitant price point.
Also think the bottle is reminiscent of Thierry Mugler’s Alien. Really intrigued by what it smells like
I know “Secretions Magnifique ” unfortunately for me…..it’s disgusting
i cant wait to see this tbh! :d i want it so badly haha
and people who are saying oh its bad for kids etc need to calm the hell down its a bloody perfume haha
