What if you could capture, liquify, and bottle the essence of punk? Then you would be in the Sex Pistols: the most iconic band of British punk has teamed up with Fragrance and Beauty Limited to offer consumers a bold new fragrance that promises to "disregard aromatic conventions."
As is always the case when aromatic conventions are disregarded, there is protest. Snobby old-timers with ethics and a fractional sense of cultural history are already hating on the new perfume, which comes rebelliously packaged in what appears to be reused materials from a middle school girl's braces. But real punks like Johnny Rotten don't have to read a blog-dot-mom to know what the kids want. The disaffected youth of today will settle for no less than 50 milliliters of "unruly turbulence," "restless bite[s] of lemon," "in-your-face ambrette," and more amazing phrases from copywriters who tell their spouses that they work on the Old Spice account.
The "raunchy" new cosmetic product is exclusively sold online, a major bummer for anti-conformist shoplifters who aren't "adverse to create a little mayhem."

So random.
everyone has a perfume today... I want my own perfume damnit!
I'm... intrigued. Perhaps I'll order a bottle after I order my Vietnamese snake wine online.
There are times when the word "sellout" just won't suffice. This is as disappointing as finding out Dennis Hopper and Bob Dylan played golf.
Johnny wouldn't attend his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but he will release a fragrance? I agree with the sellout comment...this is as conformist as it can get.
