Lady Gaga is arguably this generation’s queen of controversy. The pop star can’t even walk the red carpet without purposely causing a stir, so when it was announced that she would be releasing a fragrance, it was expected to be kooky. And boy, is it. The scent is supposedly called “Fame,” which seems like an awfully demure title, considering its ingredient list...
Gaga released a sneak peek of the bottle today, which supposedly contains a perfume that has hints of semen, blood and “expensive hooker.” And, unlike regular fragrances, the liquid is black and changes color when applied to skin. Which actually sounds really awesome.
Despite the unusual blend of notes, Gaga says that the scent isn’t gross:
It was taken out of my own blood sample, so it’s a sense of having me on your skin. I wanted to extract sort of the feeling and sense of blood and semen from molecular structures, so that’s where [the rumors] came from. That is in the perfume, but it doesn’t smell like that. Actually, the perfume smells like an expensive hooker.
So, it’s supposed to smell like blood and semen, but not really. Nonetheless, it’s doubtful that Gaga would release a foul-smelling product, especially with all the buzz that surrounds this one. Even though I don’t usually wear perfume, I’ll definitely try this one on, if only for the joy of seeing it change color. [via Fashionista]
Will you be trying “Fame” out when it’s released this fall?

I understand the blood/semen/hooker thing, and I think its kind of poetic…artistic…something along those lines. I DEFINITELY have to try it!

I think J’Adore by Christian Dior smells like an expensive French hooker and I love it! I’m gonna have to try this.

@Erika_Steele@xanga - there was a really similar post, but this one seems to go a little more in-depth with explaining the whole blood/semen thing from Lady Gaga’s prospective

Uhm…..no offense I get that it’s gaga, but it’s kind of over the top trying to be different. why would marketing it as having infinities with semen and blood sound like a good strategies.

Sounds like a load of PR BS and attempts at sounding pretentiously artsy and interesting.

HIV parfum ? Herpes perfum
Who are the most stupid ? The women making it (and get money) or the one who’ll buy it ? That’s the question.
guest
I already smell like a hooker, thanks.
guest
Old news. Already been posted. Boring. *Sigh*.

I”m in that weird part of Xanga again…what did I just read?
guest
She’s trying way too hard to be “different” at this point.
guest
She hasn’t shaved her head and attacked a car with an umbrella yet, so I wouldn’t say she is “trying too hard.”
Haters gonna hate, but that’s alright, bad publicity is good publicity.
guest
for her ULTIMATE fans only. that shit is too creepy.
