New Line Of Hippie Fragrances Announced

A group of world renowned fragrance makers has recently announced a joint venture that has as it’s sole purpose the creation of an entire line of hippie-themed colognes, perfumes and other toiletries. The consortium is known as Le Ranke and it’s members will come from 15 companies including: Calvin Klein, Hugo Boss and Liz Claiborne.

“Frankly, the public outcry for these types of scents has been enormous,” stated a company spokesman. “There is a large segment of the population that wants that chic, stale hippie smell without all the work that goes into it. Ask yourself these questions: Do I have time to protest the Iraq War for weeks on end? Would my spouse support me quitting my job, moving into my parent’s basement and smoking marijuana all day? The answer for you is probably ‘no’, as it would be for most people. So how do you obtain the desired effect? Leave that to Le Ranke.”

Some of the fragrances that will be offered include:

  • Repulsion
  • Essence of Ham Sandwich
  • Acqua di Cat Urine
  • Bong Water Noir
  • Stale Smoke #5
  • Eau de Chunky Soup
  • Le Ranke Signature
  • Taint & Bark Musk

A line of hair care products and bath oils is in the works and is due to be released in time for the Christmas season.

    Uh…. I find this highly offensive. At 2 packs a day I wear Stale Smoke #5.

    You cut me deep man.

    I’m an Eau de Chunky Soup man according to my wife. That’s what’s great about this new line of cologne- there’s something for everyone.

    You forgot Aqua Velva.

    Methinks I’ll blogroll your site. You might want to make sure your servers can handle the extra traffic. I have quite a large family.
