Tired with your old perfume? Has it lost its charm when picking up guys? Fear not, Square Enix saves the day! One of the product promotions for Final Fantasy XIII is a perfume (which is pretty pricey for just a 50mL bottle). Japanese fans can pick up the peach/rose scented perfume a month after the game is released.

When a major Final Fantasy game comes out Square Enix prepares toys and soft drinks. We’re used to those. They have one more tie-in product for Final Fantasy XIII – perfume.

A month after the game comes out in Japan, fans can purchase a bottle of Lightning eau de toilet. The aroma is described as a sweet peach smell followed by rose and then a feminine musk. Lovely.

You can get 50mLs of Lightning for a suggested retail price of 7,140 yen ($83).

      "What sort of crazy person would pay so much for so little" kind of works.

      Final Fantasy XIII also has drinks, but they're called Elixirs this time. =P

        Which give you the ability to take on flying cars, apparently.

    ...Seriously?

    I can't imagine anyone really purchasing this.

    and what could this scent be after? the smell of dust burning in your console?
