Justin Bieber’s New Perfume, Not So Original…



Justin Bieber’s New Perfume, Not So Original…Justin Bieber’s new fragrance for women was recently launched but the new addition to his product line nearly landed him in court. It has emerged that Marc Jacobs considered suing the Canadian pop star over the uncanny resemblance that Bieber’s new perfume bottle design bears to Jacobs own design for his fragrance Lola.

The fashion publication WWD, have quoted Jacobs on the topic, he apparently had a meeting with Coty, the company behind his own scents about whether to take action against Bieber;

“We just had a conversation about it. Coty said, ‘Do we sue them?’ and I said, ‘You know what? Let everyone else say what they want’.” Jacobs continues, “I received Google (Alerts) about people saying it was derivative. We’re not going to do anything about it… I look around the room and I look at the work we’ve done and a quote I always bastardise but I really believe in, is something (Coco) Chanel said: ‘He who insists on his own creativity has no memory’.”

The only thing going in Biebers favor on this one is that all proceeds from the sales of the scent will be earmarked for his favorite charities, including Pencils of Promise and the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
