No I don't really think I would pay $40 just to smell like that. I would much rather go to Burger King to eat a whopper. I don't eat there a lot but I have once in a while in the past. It does seem crazy to have a burger fragrance but some people may like it though. I prefer to smell like vanilla or anything else that is sweet. I wonder what they will think of next.
What is the correlation between burgers and perfume?...i don't even have an answer for that, who came up with that idea anyway?
I recently just read that this fragrance is somewhat of a collectible, due to the fact that there will only be one thousand units made. Does that change the aspect for some of you?
It's a novelty, that's why it's only selling in Japan. BK doesn't EXPECT Americans to buy it, obviously.
I find it a strange association really, I don't like perfumes, but if I did I would not buy a burger smelling one, so it's a risky concept and idea.
Well as I said earlier this is probably just a marketing trick. And conveniently we are already on page 2 of this discussion, so at least on this forum it worked pretty well.
It's obvioulsy just some promotional stunt in Japan. Having only 1000 available will provoke a sense of desire in some people, who will be thinking they are buying a rare collectors item which will multiply in value over the years. It's unlikely to be the case though. This is just a marketing exercise, designed to get BK some extra media coverage.
I stay away from "chicken" sold by fast food burger joints - on the rare occasion I eat fried chicken, I'll usually either hit up Popeye's or a local joint.
This sounds funny. Maybe they're trying to experiment about the idea in Japan first and if it works they'd intoduce it to a bigger market.
