Would You Date A Guy Who Wears ... Star Trek Cologne?!?

This May will see the release of the latest Star Trek movie, directed by JJ Abrams and starring Chris Pine, Erica Bana, and ... Winona Ryder? Since Star Trek-loving nerds still abound, and what with a whole new generation of Star Trek geeks waiting to happen, a bevy of Star Trek related merch will be hitting store shelves when the movie premieres, in hopes of squeezing as many dollars as possible out of wannabe Trekkies.

Star Trek Uno, anyone? Perhaps you’d prefer a Vulcan cookie jar. Or maybe you’d like to buy your man some ... Star Trek cologne? Genki Wear is producing a trio of Star Trek inspired scents: Tiberius, Pon Farr, and Red Shirt. So, if you want your man to smell like Captain Kirk, go into a Vulcan heat, or get down like a red shirt, Star Trek cologne can make it happen. That is, if you’d date a guy who’d wear it.

Personally, I want to smell like a Klingon. Yes, I intend to remain single FOREVER!

eau de targ?

What does eau de red shirt smell like - fear, sweat, and urine, with just an undertone of phaser burned flesh?

I'm peeking at the board at work and I'm almost splitting my pancreas trying not to laugh out loud...

Pon Farr,

Ah yes, squirting Vulcan love juices on ones self will improve any occasion.

Posters, I get.

Action Figures, I get.

Trading cards, I get.

Even Star Trek Christmas ornaments, I get.

Anything past that is getting ridiculous....and must truly be aimed at the uber-geek crowd (see Geek Test elsewhere).

They must sell it over here already. I bumped into a friend of my dads today chatting about allotments, as you do, and he had a certain 'eau de Klingon' about him. Thankfully it was pheromone free so I wasn't tempted
Oh and yes, he was all on his own

I can easily see this spreading among the conventions like a plague. Soon instead of the smell of sweat, booze, and cheetos, we will have Tiberius.

On a side note, I can't wait to see how they promote this.

 

[Starbreaker]

I want one... strangely enough.

I agree. Star Trek is a show about space men and ray guns. Toy ray guns and the like are wholly appropriate. It's the commemorative plate crowd that makes me go WTF ? And now cologne?

Red Shirt? Really? Boy, that wasn't well-thought through, was it?

I can see it now.....
Red Shirt Cologne. When you need a way to tell that special someone that you'd rather he just drop dead.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner.

I'm sure the follow up cologne will be called something like Ensign Ricky.

So, for the ultimate in breaking up gifts this Valentine's day, you can give the man no longer in your life the ultimate in going away forever presents.

Red Shirt and Ensign Ricky
