Have you ever wished that you could smell like Captain James T Kirk?
Of course you have.
And the good news is, is that now you can.
Yes. For realzies.
Firebox.com is now selling fully licensed Star Trek colognes that go – ask you might have guessed – “boldly where no other scents have gone before”.
For the ladies there is a new scent called “Pon Farr” which is named after the Vulcan mating cycle (who knew there was such a thing.). Combining the scent of water lilies, lotus blossoms, peach and mulberry. It sounds quite nice, non?
Then, of course for the boys (who probably don’t want to smell like a Vulcan mating cycle) there are two manly, Trekki scents.
The first is called Tiberius, named after you-know-who, which smells of citron zest, black pepper and cedar.
The second, is called Red Shirts.
(Stop snickering.)
Red Shirts is named after “the apparel favoured by the bold but stupid saps/extras who, with grim inevitability, always met a grisly end during away missions” and smells of bergamot, leather, green mandarin with hints of lavender.
I’m not sure if its their fancy descriptions or overall branding, but these fragrances sound amazing. You know, even if the lady one is named after an alien’s screwing cycle.
