No, it's sold in the women's section at Macy's... the men's cologne is sold at Target and Wal-Mart I think... I think it's called Truth and something else... I forget. It's on the 3121 website...

Anyway... anyone buy it?

I bought it. I only wore it one time: I was chased by a homosexual.
So, I gave it to a girlfriend.

I was concerned with gay thing, but upon further thought, I think I would be flattered.

I love it. Its not too strong and the after scent is a soft flowery spring like scent. Quite nice.

Anyone try the body creme?

It's all right. Not really my sort of scent. If I were going to spend $70 on a perfume set, it would not be 3121.

I believe The Truth cologne is by Calvin Klein.

Not just any "straight man" can get away with wearing it. U've gotta already have a natural physical appeal. U'know, either pretty-boy or snappy dresser. I usually cut mine with Jean-Paul Gautier. Ladies love it...

I've had the priviledge of smelling it and it's a big ill. It's starts off one way and then morphs into something else and it's just too strange. Prince needs to leave all that colonge/perfume stuff to folks like Calvin Klein and Yves Saint Lauren.

Prince, you need to keep your day job. nod

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I've gone to the biggest MACYs in the tri-state NY/NJ/CT area and they dont have it either. Each time I've asked for 3121 fragrance they dont know what I'm referring to. (1 woman did, promised they would have it in a month, that was 4 months ago, nothing yet). I was only able to purchase at a MACYS in Minneapolis.

If you're comfortable shopping online go here - http://3121perfume.com or http://www.revelationsper...8_3121.htm

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm under the impression the perfume line is a licensed agreement between Prince's company and another. When I purchased the 3121 perfume gift set, there were other fragrances available, but clearly not representative of Prince. It seems as though it was a separate company.
I stopped going to the 3121 site, after problems with him here, so I'm not up to date.
I loved the 3121 perfume products, and my 19 year old daughter took everything, but the body creme. I was hoping for a body powder, as it's a good way to have a light scent on, especially when it's humid.
The men's line is news, but I'm out of the Prince loop! smile

In an attempt to obtain more info:
http://goliath.ecnext.com...-page.html

Revelations is a cosmetic company which specializes in "private label" perfumes. It appears to be owned by Goliath.
The perfume 3121, is advertised as "inspired by" Prince.
Need more? lol

I would say that is nothing to do with Prince otherwise you would see his name/image all over it as with 3121

I think it's a Revelations product "inspired" by Prince. Ha!
Revelations manufactures and distributes the line. I'm sure Prince had final say-so in the choice of scent for 3121. I don't know about the men's line.If anyone orders it, see what company is listed on the credit card statement. wink

Copycat

This thread is misleading because Revelations produced "Truth" prior to inking a deal with Prince for "3121 Perfume". Reportedly, the company's name and "Truth" piqued his interest. Finally, for all of the still confused men out there, "3121 Perfume" is for women.
