The New York Yankees baseball team will launch a new fragrance duo in April under arrangements with The Cloudbreak Group. According to a team spokesman,
We consider ourselves a top global brand and we pride ourselves on class and elegance.
New York Yankees for Her (shown) ~ a fruity gourmand with guava, plum, apricot, strawberry, tiare, sandalwood, vanilla and musk. In 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
New York Yankees for Him ~ a woody sports fragrance with bergamot, coriander, blue sage, ivy leaves, orange flower, geranium, patchouli, sandalwood and suede. In 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette.
The New York Yankees fragrances will be sold online, at the Yankees stadium, and at Macy's stores in the New York area.

As a member of Red Sox Nation this will never touch my skin
LOL!
I am a Yankee fan, and this will never touch my skin either.
Though, I did get a kick out of “We consider ourselves a top global brand and we pride ourselves on class and elegance.” Inflated ego, much. Since when are the NY Yankees in the same realm as Chanel?
I got a kick out of that too!
I’m not sure I can claim Red Sox Nation citizenship myself, but I live in a houseful of ardent fans. If I ever want to give my husband a heart attack, I know what to do now!
🙂
My husband would divorce me if he ever saw this in our house. We’re Red Sox fans too.
Hmmm, what’s next–WWF Smackdown? 😛
Gosh. That sounds familiar. Wish I could remember all the random sports fragrances that have come & gone…
At first I thought this was a joke.
It isn’t…is it?
xo
It rarely is!
I guess I sort of “get” a sports scent from a baseball team, although I’d expect it to be more along the lines of aftershave than good perfume. But the women’s scent? Really feels like a stretch!
If it sells, they won’t care if it’s a stretch 🙂
Hmm, aren’t they concerned about competing with Derek Jeter’s line of fragrances for Avon? Is this a not-so-subtle hint that it’s time for him to move on?
Can’t wait for a Chicago Cubs scent: ivy leaves, stale Old Style, and despair. (Go White Sox!)
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks this is ridiculous!
As a Die Hard Detroit Tigers Fan… this juice could be the 2nd coming of Chanel No. 46 and I would never even take a sniff of it… I LOATHE The Yankees… so this is totally off limits! 🙂
