“Hello Daddy, Hello Mom I’m Your Cherry Bomb Killer”: New Teen Perfume

Indie Perfumers Maria McElroy of Aroma-M and Alexis of Scent by Alexis sat chewing Bubblicsious Bubblegum while listening to the Runaways one day in Brooklyn Bridge Park, and said, “Hey. This is a great idea for a teen perfume line- bubblegum color tag, sweet, fun, bakery scents!”

Inspired by dark clubs, hot summer nights sitting on the roof of the car, the East Village, cookie dough, vanilla cupcakes, gothic, dark wave, punk, glam rock, ripped clothes, animal prints, tattoos, doc martens, Cherry Bomb Killer perfume is available in two scents, "Rebel Angel' and "Truth or Dare."

 

TRUTH OR DARE.
Vanilla, brown sugar, honeysuckle. Summer nights, fishnets, dragonflies. Shy smiles. Lollipops, corsages, red lips, pink sweaters. Love songs.

REBEL ANGEL.
Vanilla créme puff, honey, magnolia. Ripped t-shirts, city lights, leopard prints, grafitti. Broken curfews, first dates, locked diaries. Old-school bakeries. Yellow taxis, neon smiles.

 

"Can't stay at home, can't stay at school
Old folks say, ya poor little fool
Down the street I'm the girl next door
I'm the fox you've been waiting for "

– Joan Jett and The Runaways"

Knowing the talent of the perfumers….  Cherry Bomb Killer will have us "grown-up" girls playing air guitar again.

 Editor's Note:  There was a movie…Recently. I didn't see it. But the legacy of Sandy, Joan, Lita, Cherie, and Jackie rock on to a new generation will live on.
