Gaga's fragrance to smell like "blood and semen"

Seems like something the Man Repeller would wear.

According to sources, Lady Gaga has requested that her first fragrance smell like "blood and semen."

Typical of Gaga to choose something so shocking and out there, knowing that her little monsters will support virtually anything she puts her name on.

Gaga's first fragrance with Coty will launch in Spring 2012.

Can't wait?

Would you wear "blood and semen" scented perfume?

We Canadians love Joe Fresh, the affordable fashion line designed by Joseph Mimran, available at our local Loblaw Cos. Ltd. superstores.

The move follows the successful launch of Joe Fresh's first stand-alone store on Granville St., in Vancouver, last October.

“We are excited to be able to reach many more of our loyal Joe Fresh customers in these great locations,” said Mimran.

Rumours also swirled around the blogosphere that Mimran was scouting a location on Fifth Avenue in New York City. The company has so far denied this rumour.

Bramalea City Centre will open its Joe Fresh store in mid April, followed by one in Vaughn Mills in late May.
