“Hopefully it will be a more sophisticated interpretation of bubble gum,” says Candace Corlett, President of WSL Strategic Retail. “But I’m sure it will make people open the bottle to smell it just to see.”
So it’s no surprise, following news that Mariah Carey dropped out of Tyler Perry’s For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf, that she’s looking to boost her biz with a new trio of fragrances called Lollipop Bling. (Yes,wholesale new era hats, that is really the name.)
But if you’re not a tween,tapout hats, would you wear it?
“It means she needs an infusion of cash,los angeles dodgers hats,” says Jo Piazza,评论12, who writes the Celebenomics column for AOL’s PopEater.
Could Mimi be more biz-savvy than we give her credit for? Maybe “Lollipop Bling” is a bit of marketing genius.
“The inspiration for Lollipop Bling was Nick’s marriage proposal to me…He first surprised me with a Ring Pop,” Carey says in a release.
For Carey’s latest set of fragrances (she’s already got M by Mariah Carey,chicago cubs hats, M by Mariah Carey Gold,oakland athletics hats, Luscious Pink, and Forever),transformers hats, Elizabeth Arden, the company that holds Carey’s fragrance license,philadelphia phillies hats, partnered with Bazooka Candy Brands, a division of Topps Company,chicago white sox hats, Inc. which also makes Ring Pops.
Mimi’s always been a kid at heart (you’ll recall her fondness for all things Hello Kitty), so it follows that she’d relish a Ring Pop proposal. But perfume that smells like candy?
Launching a fragrance is easy money for celebrities with the right star power.
“In recent years, fragrances with novelty and fun packaging like Gwen Stefani’s Harujuku Lovers have been a big hit. As celebrity fragrances also tend to appeal more to a younger consumer, the affiliation with Topps Candy could,los angeles angels of anaheim, potentially,chras bromn hats, be a way to capitalize on the trend of a fun fragrance option,new york mets hats,” says Grant.
Elizabeth Arden is planning on marketing the scents–Honey, Mine Again and Ribbon–using gumball machine gift sets and a lollipop rollerball fragrance set starting this Fall. (The scents sans gimmicky packaging are $35 a pop (pun intended),detroit tigers hats, and will be available at department stores nationwide in July 2010.)
It’s a smart move, says Grant.
“With a celebrity like Mariah Carey,others hats, a fragrance can be a winning option,Propitious Mars Wasted,” says Karen Grant, vice president and global industry analyst, The NPD Group. “Based on NPD’s Celebrity Influence study,T-shirt Printing,the hundreds hats, she is ranked in the top 25 in terms of awareness among those age 13 and up, and among the top 20 that they see endorsing a fragrance.” |
