Michael Jackson's DNA Used to Make Cologne

Michael JacksonForget about that sequined glove auction. Michael Jackson fanatics can get even closer to the late King of Pop with a new fragrance that's been created from his DNA.

Los Angeles-based fragrance company My DNA Fragrance has teamed up with John Reznikoff, who has the world's largest collection of historical hair, including strands of Jackson's coif, to formulate a new cologne called M. Using a special process, "DNA can be extracted from hair shafts with or without the follicle intact," the company's website claims.

Part of the company's "Antiquity" fragrance collection, M costs about $60 and comes in a three-ounce silver bottle shaped like one of Jackson's old outfits. There are no specific details on M's actual scent but the site promises that "this cologne is unique like not other cologne in the world."

The "Antiquity" line also includes fragrances made from Albert Einstein, Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe. M is currently available for pre-order and will sell in select shops in early 2010.

Wow, I am appalled at some of these comments! I mean, if you don't like the idea, great. But, why put someone down? Have a little respect.

I just have a question. Is this for a man? If it is for a woman, I would probably buy it for myself, but I doubt my husband would wear it.

Michael Jackson
1958-FOREVER
Rest in Love and Peace

Whoever is in charge of Michael Jackson's estate should be ashamed of themselves, but your not are you, you will carry on squeezing his corpse for every penny you can until his whole corpse is cut up and sold for money to all 4 corners of the empire, won't you.

I cannot believe his family are letting this happen even if his DNA is not actually in the recipe, it's implied your getting a piece of MJ in your cologne, unless they are on the pay roll too and getting there cut of the action, what a horrible way to remember a loved one, mind you, there has never been much love shown by his dad from what I’ve seen over the last 40 years. No I'm not a fan of MJ in any way really, but there again I would not want to make money out of a loved ones corpse either, whether I liked them or not, you sad lot, let the poor man rest in peace. Whether or not MJ was guilty of child abuse allegations, he has now passed away and should be left to rest in the peace that he could not find here on earth. Making money out of MJ or anyone else for that fact when there dead is just plain and morally wrong, unless it is his wish and mentioned in his last will and testimony,

MJ was a very private and shy person, genuinely child like man who I think would not wish other people to have his DNA code, MJ thought he was unique and he was in many ways, but would he want to share his hard earned uniqueness for a lousy $60, I don't think so, it nearly killed him being forced to sell Never Land so I don't think he would want any tom dick or harry spraying his uniqueness under there arm pits after a shower. I think his biggest mistake in life was paying all those millions of dollars to stop court cases going a head, if he was not guilty, then he should have faced his pears and gone to court pleading not guilty, but paying off these families just made people think the worst of him, including myself, but he has died now, let him r.i.p for gods sake.

I think if MJ wanted to share his DNA code with anyone at all, he himself would have already done so, he would have hand picked the people himself who would have received the gift and it would have been maybe a dozen people in the world who would get this unique gift from MJ to celebrate a very special moment in his life. I think the first bottle would go to Diana Ross and the rest would have gone to people who were as close to MJ as Diana Ross was, so no one would be able to buy it ever because no one he would give to in the first place would never ever have to sell it to pay there bills because there all rich in there own right, that is what MJ would have done I think because he would have liked the uniqueness of the gift and I also think MJ would have had a very expensive unique bottle cut from rare crystal or tanzanite for the cologne bottle and then the bottle would have been placed in a very expensive and unique gift box for the cologne to be kept in, a box that would never depreciate the contents. MJ would not have done this on the cheap; he loved giving his closest friends very expensive unique gifts, not cheap and tacky $60 bottles of odour toilet. But you won't make money that way, would you? Money brings out the worst in everyone, especially if you imply that what your selling is essentially MJ's body parts/fluid/cells, it does not matter how you try to put it, it's wrong you sad horrible people, this is not showing respect for the memory of MJ.

You know

You know what's so funny about all these comments. That every one of them are based on opinion no one in this blog has read the facts.

The website tells you facts. The spinner did not even interview any one from the company they are just repeating what other blogs are saying.

I found out that there are only to major news papers and two TV news companies a radio shows have and the report is completely different.

Guys is this not what is partly wrong with all the shit gone wrong in this world today. People basing stories on false not truth. Then we as readers just believe because some one said it.

Every one does not things to gain money or because they are bad people. What if all the writers here thought the same of you or your mother or father.

You should go to there website and look for the link Meet the CEO

Facts:My DNA Fragrance is a unique perfume company, which designs one-of-a-kind fragrance based on YOUR DNA GENETIC CODE


DNA IS NOT IN THE FRAGRANCE & DNA DOES NOT HAVE ANY ODOR

But Your DNA is the blueprint in designing Your exclusive fragrance



Are You Unique?

Millions of people are wearing the same copycat fragrance. Are you like millions of others or are you unique?

What sounds better? “I'm wearing a designer fragrance” or “I'm wearing a fragrance especially designed for me and licensed to me.

The license is your DNA blueprint, your genetic code.”


Exclusive - A Unique Process

What makes our process so unique? You!

Every person in the world's DNA blueprint is different. Therefore, because your DNA blueprint is uniquely different, your fragrance will be different. No two fragrances will smell the same.


Antiquity Brand

in honor of the people who changed history, the “Antiquity” fragrance collection recognizes their history making moments.



The King of Pop - Michael Jackson, World Renowned Genius - Albert Einstein. Queen of Hollywood - Katharine Hepburn, The King of Rock-N-Roll - Elvis Presley, The Sultry Marilyn Monroe and Glamorous Hollywood Star Joan Crawford and over 70 others

What makes our celebrity brand different? Their genetic blueprint is the code that we use to formulate their fragrance.

So when you wear “Antiquity”, our celebrity fragrance, you are not wearing a name but a truly unique fragrance in history.



Your Personal Unique Brand

Why not let My DNA Fragrance design a Fragrance for you by your genetic blueprint? An exclusive fragrance that separates you from millions of others.

In honor of one of your loved ones we can uniquely design a moment of their history that can last forever.
