Five scents will be released in this line, all available in two sizes (10 mL and 30 mL) and in solid perfume form (as a set of all five). Each fragrance is molded after Gwen’s four real-life Harajuku girls (Love, [Lil’] Angel, Music, and Baby). The fifth scent shall represent their leader, “G.”

Gwen & her Harajuku Girls

The bottles are two-piece “dolls” that are molded according to their real life Harajuku counterpart, making displaying these on your vanity counter that much more fun.

Editor’s note: While some have chosen to prematurely criticize these upcoming fragrances, I can’t wait to sample each of them! Only a true perfume snob would pass judgment on a perfume [line] simply because of it’s designer, what the bottle looks like, the name of the scent, etc. I give Gwen credit in keeping things fresh and fun – her fan base may have a large demographic but a good part of it consists of the younger audience.. to simply ignore that aspect of your market would be pretty imbecilic, wouldn’t you say?
