Don’t get me wrong, I love Twilight (books and movie) but I really hate it when the marketing people go overboard on making random crap and then slap the name on it. Maybe it’s just me. It does however tend to make me like them less.

Yea, we had it at Borders. (Went really quick too, oddly enough) Ours was only $24 tho…..still a bit much for something they never even sent testers with. Don’t want to by perfume without smelling it…..

I give props to Twilight for making their own perfume. At least they could have picked a different bottle design instead of using the same one as Nina Ricci….which is an awesome scent by the way!!

Nope. I have never wondered what Edward Cullen smells like.. Not once.

Yeah, I smelled it at the Borders bookstore yesterday…

It smells like some really gnarly AVON SOAP from the 80s…stuff my lame aunt wore and made me gag.

They could have and should have made it smell better. Shit, I would have bought it if it smelled good…and I’m a 29 year old! hahaha…

It smells kind of alcohol-y, but you can get it for $24.99 at Borders book stores!!!!!!

Heh Trent was there any doubt that Edward Cullen/Robert Pattinson would smell anything less than divine? I doubt that :D

I agree this looks sooo much like the Nina Ricci perfume that I just assumed it was fake, even the box looks fake.

We’re all sick of everyone and their mother coming out with perfumes… but as long at Britney and JLo keep selling millions of bottles of their scents we will continue to see and (hopefully not) smell attempts to cash in on this market.

Trent, unfortunately it is very real. I saw tons of these bottles in stock yesterday at my local Borders. For the record, I thought it smelled like laundry detergent so if any of y’all are into smelling like that then go for it!

…looks like a photoshopped version of the Nina Ricci bottle, for sure. I’m not convinced just yet if this really is a genuine item of merch.

I know what Edward Cullen smells like! Or rather, I know what Robert Pattinson smells like as he was right up close in front of me signing autographs at the London premiere of “Twilight” and I straight away noticed his aftershave – VERY NICE INDEED!
The perfume idea is going too far with the merch ideas, though. Stick with the posters, t-shirts and all the usual stuff, but who’s going to buy a perfume? Will it actually take off or be a bad scent of a flop?

Ack!!! Bloody Hot Topic is desecrating my obsession with their relentless hawking of shite Twilight-themed products! Enoooough. I’m a total fan-girl but the only time I’d buy this is if it was in the £5 bargain bin. As it is, it’s not available in the UK, but i’m going to assume that it smells like diesel mixed with flowers. Not good.

I’d still like an Edward though…if Hot Topic started selling those off the shelves I’d be there in a shot.

I like perfume as much as the next gal but this is pretty silly debating over “rip-offs” – a perfume BOTTLE can’t be ripped off because none of them are patented or exclusive to one company or another… The perfume’s ingredients can be “copied” & is by those putting out generic brands I’ve seen in stores (generic name – based on Calvin Klein’s “Obsession”, etc.).

So just because the bottles are similar to each other, take a closer look & (if possible) sniff them both, but color-wise… Nina’s is rosy while Twilight’s is “blood” red. So they may be very different indeed. As Jared wrote: “it caontains a delicious lavender and freesia scented perfume.” – What is HER’S made from?

Granted, the Twilight guys could have gone with a more unique bottle design than Ricci’s… Hell, does a perfume company make their own bottles or get them from suppliers after submitting designs? Maybe the bottle should have been fired in the image of Robert Patterson WITH FANGS.

Would that be better?
