Square Enix’s Final Fantasy XIII is about to drop in a couple weeks and SQEX’s merchandise division, Square Enix Products is currently producing a ton of cool FFXIII collectibles such as action figures, die-cast key chains, business card holders, cups, and even an energy drink. The one item that caught my attention is the official Final Fantasy XIII Lightning Eau de Toile perfume. This is SQEXP’s first fragrance that they have ever produced that that honor goes to the pink haired heroine, Lightning of Final Fantasy XIII. This cool fragrance comes in a crystal shard-like bottle with Lightning frosted/etched onto the side. On top of that, you get a cool little charm of Lightning’s symbol. This perfume will be sold in a 50ml bottle and is described to smell like jasmine. Lightning Eau de Toile drops in the first quarter of 2010 and can be found in Square Enix’s online shop (not available yet) for a meer ¥6800 (about $77).

Ever wonder what a Cthulhu may smell like? What about a Nyarlathotep? Now you can! Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab presents their “Lovecraft Collection”. BPAL has produced perfume oils that features scents inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s horrifically fictional creatures and worlds of the “Cthulhu Mythos”. The collection includes scents of such cosmic entities and places such as Al Azif, Azathoth, Brown Jenkins, R’Lyeh, Y’Ha-Ntheli, Nyarlathotep, and of course Cthulhu. There are 16 scents in the collection and they will cost about $15 bucks for a 5ml vile. Each perfume oil is bottled in an amber apothecary vial. I wonder if the scents attracts the ladies… or does it attract fish?
