    Maybe I’m feeling extra cranky today, but everything about this turns me off – the cheap looking bottles, the cheesy name, the reference to the VIP list, the juice itself (another floriental?). I’m obviously too old (so is Karl for that matter!) to be part of the target audience, but a new KL fragrance shouldn’t make me think Justin Bieber.

      I don’t think you need to be cranky to find this a turn-off. Indeed, it is a hard thing to make me feel sorry for Karl Lagerfeld, but InterParfums has accomplished it 🙂

    Maybe Smelling the Fragrances Would alleviate some of the Disgruntlement… They may not set the world alight but certainly may be perfectly Fine and Nice Smelling… Is a name all that Offensive?

      It’s not just the name, although the name and the inspiration strike me as silly — like they’re copying the Carolina Herrera 212 VIP Club. But also, was extremely disappointed in what InterParfums has done under the Karl Lagerfeld name so far, they’re really just barely competent fragrances. I am not a huge personal fan of Karl Lagerfeld, but he’s a legend and deserves better.

        That’s what I thought, C H did this quite a few years ago. So embarrassing for Choupette!

    Not offensive, necessarily, but certainly cringe-worthy.

      Not sure I’d want to be a member of any ‘Private Klub’ run by an 81 year old who wants to celebrate youth and VIP guest lists

    I’m always amazed that the creative mind behind Chanel and Fendi lets himself down so badly with his own line – everything about this looks and sounds tacky. He has his own store selling his own brand clothes here in London and that is incredibly tacky too with the worst, naffest window displays I’ve ever seen – it looks like a discount store!

    He seems to curate the Chanel legacy with care but doesn’t give a damn about protecting his own name or reputation from tat like this.
