I was in Macy's 2-nite & I asked if they had 3121 Perfume (for the fun of it). The woman said "oh the Prince perfume ... that's up front" and I was so happy because I thought Prince's perfume was doing well. Then when I went to find it there was none - no display -nothing. It was a one-hit wonder.

LOL yeah the perfume has been about as successful as Chelsea Rodgers, the CD, the Verizon deal.....

He seems to be dashing a lot of opportunites.

Why would the woman say it was "up front" if there wasn't any there? It never did reach all the Macy's stores by the way.

Maybe I'm reaching with this one but maybe..... just maybe "THEY RAN OUT"! But like I said just reaching

KidaDynamite said:

probably reaching as well....but if they did run out it was probably because they weren't expecting it to sell and only ordered a small consignment.


if you don't reach for it, you will never attain it.

If you want some then I'm happy to send a (barely used) bottle. I tried to like it, I really did, but it's made for a sophisticated 50-something white woman in a 1920's ivory suit, not a slightly odd late 20's mixed race woman in black!

Awww Lawd!

ladycat said:

Say it ain't so. I wanted to get it, but it doesn't sound like it gonna suit me. Sophisticated! 50-something (not even close) White! (er Nah!)....damn, at least the bottle is pretty I can put it on my dresser.

I tried to give it a fair shot but the stuff smells like Big Foot's dick. What was he thinking?

It'll be in the $1.00 store by Christmas

Sad but true.

It was a polite way of telling them to leave the store.

JuliePurplehead said:

WTF!

I was in MACY's a feww weeks back and asked for 3121 perfume. I was told they sold out.

So, I don't know what's up???!!!???

ladycat said:

I don't know about the sophisticated, nor the white suit.....

I checked at the Macy's nearby, and they didn't even know who Prince was! I kept saying: the musician, the musician. Plus no perfume. And these were women younger than myself, 40ish.
(When I mentioned the superbowl, there was finally a connection.)
I walked away asking myself "What is this world coming to?"
I can't assume people in their 30's and 40's know who he is.


Anyhoooo...I just bought the purple velvet gift set on the 3121 site.
I was wondering, based on the description of the products, what is meant by "inspired by prince". I thought he was involved in the making of the fragrance.

I actually really like the perfume. I dont wear it but I like to spray it in my room. I have a few bottles that came with my MPLS tickets. I asked a rep at Macy's about it (because I wanted to see the display). She told me that it was only temporary and when it was gone it was gone... and that they sold out.

spontane said:

Maybe the perfume was never meant to be a permanent sales item...just temporary like many of Princes inspirations. Could be why the "International" shipping hasn't been an option for a while now. If this is the case then I'm happy that I bought mine when I did because I love the perfume.

With any luck he'll open an online store and sell it there instead of the Macy's stores!

I went to a couple of Macy's in NY and they don't have it

i got them to spray a bit on me at the o2...it was a bit overpowering, and a bit girly...though i didn't realise that i (apparently) smelt of sasquatch cock!

Order away.....

A Macy's rep said they were a little surprised by the smell. She said they thought it would be a little younger but it is good and he is going after his age group.

I thought it smelled good. I also like spraying it around the house. I have a bad felling it isn't going to be around a long time but who knows.

It smells gross. Hope he doesnt smell like that.
Honest,its so bad.
Cheap old lady smell

xplnyrslf said:

But...when you click on "Order" at the bottom of the merchandise menu it says that international shipping is suspended...so I figure this means they are not shipping anywhere outside of the states.

Did they ever do a cologne??? I thought there was gonna be something for the dudes. Imagine the tang I'd get if I smelled like Prince

xplnyrslf said:

You're right, the end of the world as we know it must be near, if people don't know who our beloved Prince is!

Volitan said:

I think it's for women and men although it smells pretty girly to me. Yeah, chicks are not that into bug spray so you may not score too much poon with this one. You'd be better off with Stetson.
