Movie-Inspired Fragrances

‘Sex Panther Cologne' from ‘Anchorman' Becomes R

— January 10, 2009 — Pop Culture
Plug your noses and prepare to head to the hills (or nearest toilet) as die-hard movie fans swoop up the real-life version of ‘Sex Panther’ cologne, inspired by the movie ‘Anchorman.’ Paramount Pictures gave Omni Consumer Products licensing rights to sell ‘Sex Panther,’ created by Romane Fragrance.

According to the Sex Panther website’s science section: 

Sex Panther. Scientifically engineered using space-age petroleum byproducts and animal parts. So you know it’s good.

Quantitatively, it is possible to calculate the level of awesomeness contained within a single bottle of Sex Panther cologne using the following equation
.

Photo #2 shows the equation. 

“It’s called ‘Sex Panther’ by Odion. It’s illegal in nine countries,” is the line from ‘Anchorman’ to describe the fragrance. The infamous line from the Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate film preceded one of the most hysterical segments of the movie: So appalling was the smell of ‘Sex Panther’ that co-workers were ‘scent’ running out of the building.

I hope Romane Fragrance did not use animal parts to make ‘Sex Panther’ cologne and were instead able to pull off the really foul odor via another method.

This disgusting scent in a bottle would make a great gift for the annoying ‘Anchorman’ fans in your life or even yourself. 
Trend Themes
1. Movie-inspired Fragrances - The success of Sex Panther cologne shows that there is potential in creating fragrances based on popular movies.
2. Humor-based Marketing - Using humor to promote and sell products, such as Sex Panther cologne, can create a unique and memorable brand image.
3. Unconventional Scents - Consumers are open to trying unconventional fragrances, as demonstrated by the popularity of Sex Panther cologne.
Industry Implications
1. Fragrance Industry - The fragrance industry can venture into creating movie-inspired scents to attract new customers and offer unique products.
2. Movie Merchandise Industry - Movie merchandise companies, like Omni Consumer Products, can offer more creative and unusual products, such as Sex Panther cologne.
3. Comedy Industry - The comedy industry can collaborate with fragrance companies to create unique, humorous scents that fans of certain shows and movies can appreciate.
