New Human Blood concept perfume ‘might make you a prey to vampires’
April 22nd, 2011 - 2:25 pm ICT by ANINew York, April 22 (ANI): A provocative fragrance line based on the four major human blood types- A, B, AB and O may soon have an ideal group of early adopters: vampires.
Italian entrepreneurs, Antonio Zuddas and Giovanni Castelli, which debuted Blood Concept, have claimed that the each scent is evocative of the blood type it represents.
“Blood Concept is just a celebration of human life through an interpretation of its evolutionary process,” AOL News quoted Zuddas as saying.
“To be more accurate, it’s an interpretation of the evolution of our most important element, the blood in our veins,” Zuddas added.
In keeping with the hematic theme, the four scents come in 1.35-ounce vials with red droppers, and the website includes background images of swirling blood.
While the Milan-based designers concede that Blood Concept may make some squeamish, they maintain that their perfumes have nothing to do with blood lust.
“No splatter, no vampires …,” Zuddas said.
And while the report quoted a self-identified vampire, intending to sample the fragrance line in the flesh soon, Meredith Woerner, a New York City vampirist and author of ‘Vampire Taxonomy’, has a hard time believing that vampires would go for such a gimmick.
“It’s cheesy. It’s chintzy,” she said.
“It’s not their style. I can’t imagine a real vampire would be that enticed by fake blood. In fact, if they detected the scent of it, it might make you more of a target for a mercy killing,” added Woerner. (ANI)
