Brooklyn Bunny Lettuce & Apple ~ new fragrances

Brooklyn Bunny Lettuce fragrance

Dresser Johnson, the team behind the Brooklyn Bunny Cam*, have launched two new limited edition room & body fragrances developed by Christopher Brosius of CB I Hate Perfume.

Brooklyn Bunny Lettuce is “a light and sweet scent as if you were cracking a head of crisp, fresh lettuce in your hands.”

Brooklyn Bunny Apple “smells like the moment you take a chomp out of a freshly picked apple.”

Brooklyn Bunny Lettuce & Apple are available in 150 ml Room & Body Spray (both in the CB I Hate Perfume water formula), and are $14 each at Brooklyn Bunny.

    I like the postcard that says “Brooklyn is hard. Bunny is soft.” :-)

    Great branding, but the last thing that comes to mind when I think of Brooklyn is apples and lettuce, with the exception of garbage days.

      I think they’re supposed to bring to mind the bunny, not the city :-)

    Robin, is this another one of those joke fragrances? ;)

    Ok, I guess I am just not hip enough to get this.

      Hmmm…CB probably already had both Lettuce & Apple in his accords series, I’d guess, so no, don’t think it’s a joke! Cute idea though to link them w/ a bunny cam!

      They’re cheaper than anything you can buy on the CBIHP website! Might as well buy ;-)

        I just did. Can’t wait to smell them. I love the smell of Chris’ water scents, and lettuce and apple have Summer 2009 written all over them.

        Thanks Robin for the little push. ;)

          I have the Russian Tea in the water-based room spray, and it’s fabulous. Lighter than the “regular” body perfumes, but cheaper. I just use it like a body spray (apply liberally)

      Mike, the lettuce sounds especially delightful to me!

      He does do a good smokey eye! ;) Who knew rabbits were so skilled with the kohl?

    Don’t need the scents, but that’s a great logo. Where were these people in the Bond No. 9 contest?!

      No kidding. It took me a while to see the bunny ears–I just saw the bridge. Very clever.

      The logo is fantastic. I think that’s what they do for a living, when they’re not running bunny cam.

      You just sent me back to the picture to see the bridge– all I saw at first take was bunny.

    Too cute! I do love their logo, and love the bunny cam! Had to email this to my friend who’s a bunny lover.

      I couldn’t get the bunny cam to do live updates…will have to check it again later.

    I can logically appreciate the light-tight bottle. I like the idea of the fragrances. It’s new and different, and totally a different direction from the pretentious “La francais incomprehansihable” type things. I’m also glad that CB is doing other things.

    But always with the critiques- here I go. Why is it that I can’t get my brain around the light plastic bottle? Every one that I see just screams “house cleaner” not perfume.

    I’ve tried to think of another carrier besides glass. Metal, maybe. But it would have to be shiny. Like a bright glossy red. But not plastic unless you’re going to sell these things for less than 8 bucks.

    My heart can’t get behind the plastic screw cap bottle, even if my brain would like it to.

    Are there any exceptions to my own ‘plastic sucks’ rule?

    • ggperfume
      Posted on 15 June 2009

      No exceptions at all, imo.

      Hmmm…in general I hate plastic bottles, but for the CBIHP line, it just never bothered me…they’re an indie line, & not “about” the packaging, and that’s ok with me. Also, unless I’m mistaken, he only does the room sprays in plastic — the water perfumes are in glass.

      • owengreen

        So maybe you could say if it goes on skin, it has to be in glass?

        Why?

        • Robin

          Not sure what you mean…you mean why does CB put one in glass & the other in plastic? I mean, the only difference IIRC between his room sprays & the body sprays is concentration…so presumably he just puts the room sprays in plastic to keep the cost down? Don’t know, you’d have to ask him!
