Avril Lavigne to Launch Her First Fragrance

Jason Kempin/FilmMagic

Britney Spears already has her famous family of fragrances, and Christina Aguilera will launch her first American scent soon — and now it looks like pop’s edgier princess is getting in on the fragrance game too. Avril Lavigne has just confirmed to WWD that she’s inked a deal with Proctor & Gamble Prestige Products to create a perfume line directed at her teen fans. “Creating this fragrance is a fun process and I am looking forward to sharing it with everyone,” she tells the paper. And while there’s no official launch date yet, the fragrance is expected to hit stores sometime during the second half of 2009. Tell us: Will you wear Avril’s scent?

Cassie

No way. I’ll probably puke at the slightest whiff.

Julian L.

She’s such a f’n loser. She wishes she were rocker, she just a pop flunky

Julian L.

Loser

Dawn

So she’s now like jessica and britney and christina.

Marie

No I will not.
Sorry, I’m good on perfumes.
I’m not so into wearing perfumes just because a star designed it.
Sorry Avril, I’m sure it will be a success either way.

gloria woodman

No I won’t wear it. It probably smells like a giant ego, Canadian bacon and desperation.

Cucumber eyes

tnx… but no tnx…

BEEG

Will it be called Punk-Poser for Teens? I would never give my money to a girl who long ago succumbed to delusions of Punk and/or Rock. And grandeur.

nah dont like her

regla

nah dont like her looks

AZ

SELL OUT!

maddie

Of corse i will! i really enjoy her spunkyness… i cant wait! :]

Kasey

if it smells good, ill buy it. who cares who its buy as long as its actualy good?

Misty

Yes I probably will. She is a far better role model for girls that Lilo or Brit.

Avril Rocks

I would, i love her music. Ya she sounds dumb in interviews. so what?? I would try it

MelROcks

Well… it depends on the smell…
but of course, if they try make it seem liek it’s for teens and they make it a cheap smell and stuff, then it’s degrading to teens like myself. I hope it’s not another mary-kate and ashley, that’s so raven fragrance. Teens like the nice kind!! Like Britney Spears perfume.

Maybe she can use that perfume to spray some talent onto herself.

Zoey

No.. she’s just a big poser

Stephen

It takes so much energy to hate someone, idiots.
I love Avril.

If I were a female I wouldn’t wear it, only cause Proctor & Gamble is CRUEL to animals.

[sighh]

Courtney

Why does EVERY singer now feel like they have to copy Jennifer Lopez and Britney Spears…WHAT CELEBRITY DOESNT HAVE A PERFUME NOW?

cassie

no way. it probably will be real skanky just like avril.

candie

yeah, Ill try it out, what the hell, just another teen queen trying to influence the world!

Rasha

Absolutely not.

danielle

hell no…she’s a freakin wannabe. I’m sure christina’s will be a million times better

xoxoxo

they are all haters….

hannah

yes!

Molly

i love avril, but she’s kind of…not as cool now.

i don’t know
a good smelling perfume is a good smelling perfume
i may see what it smells like
and if i like it, i’m not going not to buy it just ’cause it’s hers.

i still like her, but you know, she’s not as cool and edgy since her last CD.

Rachel

I LOVEE AVRIL!! =) i went to her concert once and shes AWESOME! she has an amazing voice, plays the piano, drums, and probably like every kind of guitar that exits, anddd she GORGEOUS!!! (if you get rid of all that makeup)

I will DEFINITELY buy her perfume! (if it smells good..)

AnnieJ

No. This has absolutely nothing to do with style.

San

uuuuummmmm, NO!!!!

Abi

didnt know that but way toooooo much make up gross shes too old for that much

Anonymous

haha and smell like sweat? no thanks.

paige

why is she doing this

Ceylan

who wants to smell like her?!?

who cares

I like Avrils earlier music, but now shes just a wannabe. And I dont like perfume, and even if I did, just because shes advertising it doesn’t mean I’ll buy ut.

GG

What, are they going to call it “SPIT” ?
I lost all respect for this gal once I saw that she liked to spit at people.

I definetely will not be buying any product she endorces.

Tricia

What’s with the mean comments people?? Just say no, or go on TMZ and write your nasty comments there. GO AVRIL!!

nikki

well if it smells good and is at a decent price, I probably will buy. who cares who made the product? If its good its good but don’t make your decision on the person who makes it just because you don’t like them.

Angelica

AVRIL ROCKS! I WILL DEFINATELY BUY HER PERFUME!

Bettina

I’m not surprised she would want to capitalize on her fame and launch a sub-par fragrance. It may be a decent seller among 8 – 13 crowd; however, it’s going to bomb with any other age demo. She has to compete with the likes of the Olsens, Hilary Duff and Miley Cyrus. (Olsens, Duff and Cyrus are popular among tweens, teens and even 20s and the gay population). She doesn’t have her image anymore so I’ll be surprised if her sales break even.

Quite frankly I think she’s an ignorant poser. She’s a wanna be version of Pink. (If you want to be a bad girl be a bad girl, if you want to sing pop and be a punk Pink does the best job).

Katelyn

Yeah, I’ll wear it. I love Avril Lavigne and i don’t care what anyone else has to say about her.

Karen

I think Avril is a much better role model that most of her peers, so I would totally wear it.

It’s a great idea and it only makes sense, since Avril Lavigne was the best selling female artist in the world in 2007, according to “World Wide Albums” Source: worldwidealbums*net/2007ye.htm

Cat626

Where’s the love y’all? I took my 12 yr. old to her concert this Spring and She is very talented. Songwriter, guitar player, piano player, and really good singer. She’s more than the typical fluff puff. As for her perfume, the answer is in the sniff, not her attitude. Lighen’ up.

Claire

Well… i wouldn’t. cause she is a liar. she lied on punk’d. she’s not worth it. and i can bet, it’ll suck.

Kelly

I’ll definately try it! She has incredible talent as a singer and as a song writer and has a definate style all her own. She isn’t going to make some cookie cutter fragrance like every other “star” out there. For everone that bags on her, check out how many of your favorite song by other artists, were written by Avril Lavigne. Then we can talk.

Shopping addict

She needs to be caught by What Not To Wear, she especially needs a makeover with the makeup! There is nothing about this loser look that makes me want to wear her (haha) fragrance…

who cares?

If you don’t like her, why bother viewing this article?! LOSERS!

kayla

if u guys freakin hater then y r u readin this? avril rocks and i will totally buy the fragrance

kayla

Annalisa

Well duh, of course I would wear it! I don’t know where everyone is getting their snooty little comments from, but Avril Lavigne is a great person!!! Plus she’s rich and I must say I’ve never smelled a bad smelling rich person.

narshelene

wel I would buy it but if it smells good I dont care if she’s a star or not It must smell good and I dont care if shes rich cuzz I am too

Leah Luvs Avril
