Nelly is set to join the mob of celebrities with their own fragrance lines. He is expanding his hit apparel company into a woman's fragrance franchise.
It will be called Apple Bottoms Fragrance and will include: perfume, lotion, and body wash. The rapper says that the new line of products is meant to serve as a complement to the lifestyles of the die hard consumers of his clothing company. The scent for the fragrance will contain: sandalwood, golden amber, velvet musk and apple blossoms. Also, there will be a touch of pink peony and citrus thrown in the mix as well. The prices from the products range from $20 - $60 and the line is scheduled to hit retailers sometime next month. This will put Nelly in direct competition with two of his fellow hip-hop peers with their own fragrances coming this fall too. Those peers are Akon and 50 Cent. And all three will join good company, as the likes of Jay Z and Kanye West already secured fragrance deals last year.
Well I am not real big on celebs and their fragrances. I feel like they are too expensive. I can smell just as good with a $5 bottle of lotion as I can with a $60 bottle of perfume. But I like to see rappers expanding and growing on the business tip. So I feel this is a good look for Nelly. I think it might be risky because there are so many other fragrance lines out there and they are steady coming out. But what's life without a little risk right? Plus it sounds like it would smell good and the prices aren't too bad. Never know, it just might be Nelly's new big ticket. He for sure needs one, cause his rap career is done. I still love him, just keeping it real, lol. -MinM
