Star Trek Fragrances

Submitted by veridicus on March 4, 2009 - 11:04am.

Genki Wear, known for its licensed science fiction jewelry and perfumes, has produced what might be the most unusual Star Trek product ever: Star Trek colognes and perfume based on the original 1960s television show. ... There are three fragrances planned for 2009 with the monikers 'Tiberius," "Red Shirt" and "Ponn Farr."

At Least It's Humorous

*squirts some "Red Shirt" cologne on himself*

You smell that? That's ambergris from the original humpback whales they used in Star Trek IV:The Voyage Home.

I will admit, though I hate the idea, at least the "Red Shirt" has some humor to it--the box has "Red Shirt: Because tomorrow may never come" on it. And the article subtitles the picture with "Live every day as if it could be your last, with 'Red Shirt' cologne." The hilarious marketing slogans basically write themselves though:

  • Be the first to investigate a hostile planet--and smell good doing it with Red Shirt cologne!
  • Let that blood sucking vampire cloud know how you roll with the wafting fragrance of Rid Shirt cologne!
  • Go out in style with the scent of Red Shirt cologne!
  • If they don't remember your name, at least they'll remember how you smelled--like Red Shirt cologne.
  • etc.
