On Oct. 11, exactly 40 years after his appearance on Saturday Night Live's premiere episode in 1975, Andy Kaufman will reemerge--with his own celebrity fragrance.
LA perfumery Xyrena is rolling out Andy Kaufman Milk & Cookies in honor of the actor/comic/performance artist's life and works. The fragrance will make its public debut at the annual Andy Kaufman Award show, which is scheduled for Oct. 11 at UCB East in NYC.
"Andy Kaufman once said, 'There's no way to describe what I do. It's just me,'" said Killian Wells, founder of Xyrena. "That quote and Andy's opposition to the societal norm has always resonated with me. As a New York native and fan I'm excited to pay homage to Andy's undeniable genius."
Andy Kaufman Milk & Cookies is a gourmand fragrance inspired by Kaufman's historic performance at Carnegie Hall in April 1979, after which he took the audience of 2,800 people out for milk and cookies with 24 buses he had waiting outside the venue.
Formulated by Wells, Milk & Cookies opens with top notes of sugar and sweet butter then develops into a heart of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and a delicate note of creamy milk, followed by bottom notes of vanilla extract and white musk.
The fragrance is available for pre-order now at Xyrena.com/Andy in both extrait de parfum and a vibe spray (for body and room).
