Trump mocked as he launches perfumes with gold statue of him on bottle: 'Smells like mean-spiritedness'

WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump on Monday, June 30, launched a limited edition, self-branded fragrance with a gold statue of himself on the bottle, and urged his supporters to "get one for your loved ones."

The POTUS has a long history of promoting fragrances, dating back to around 2004 when he launched 'Donald Trump, The Fragrance' by partnering with Estee Lauder, according to Raw Story.

The president wrote in a Truth Social post, "Trump Fragrances are here. They’re called 'Victory 45-47' because they’re all about Winning, Strength, and Success — For men and women. Get yourself a bottle, and don’t forget to get one for your loved ones too. Enjoy, have fun, and keep winning!"

He also attached a link to the website to buy the fragrances. It is available in two versions — for men and women — and will cost a whopping $249 for each 3.3 fl oz (100 ml) bottle.

On the website, the men's cologne boasts "rich, masculine notes with a refined, lasting finish" and is aimed at "men who lead with strength, confidence, and purpose", per Mediaite.

On the other hand, the women's perfume boasts a “sophisticated, subtly feminine scent that’s your go-to signature for any occasion,” and “captures confidence, beauty, and unstoppable determination,” per the website.

Interestingly, Trump Fragrance, which is operated by the same company that has sold Trump Sneakers, also sells "FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT" branded cologne and perfume for men and women with Trump’s signature on the bottle.

Meanwhile, a notice in small print at the bottom of the website reads, "Trump Fragrances are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Donald J Trump, The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals."

In 2015, the POTUS released the fragrance, "Empire by Trump", and in 2024, he introduced the "Victory 47" cologne and perfume as part of his merchandise line, per Raw Story.

However, perfumes are just a part of the products that Trump has used the pulpit of the presidency to advertise since his return to power, The Independent reported. 

Trump could have made up to $315 million from his novelty "$TRUMP" cryptocurrency since its launch in January 2025, even while its value crashed from $27.72 per coin to $8.73, Forbes reported.
