Remember Glow by JLo? We tried it, and we quickly tired of the synthetic, overpowering smell.

    Last year, Levine tweeted: "I also would like to put an official ban on celebrity fragrances. Punishable by death from this point forward." Next year, he's launching his own, called 222 by Adam Levine.

  2. Justin Bieber

    Last year, Marc Jacobs said he considered suing the makers of Justin Bieber's Someday scent, due to the bottle's similarity to his own fragrance, Lola.

  3. Paris Hilton

    In 2011, Paris launched her "Passport" fragrance line -- and one critic on Amazon.com called her Passport Paris Spray "cheap and American."

  4. Britney Spears

    Spears' perfumes have a strong following, but fans seemed to think Midnight Fantasy stunk in comparison to regular Fantasy.

  5. Kim Kardashian

    One Amazon.com reviewer said Kim Kardashian for Women is "like a $10 perfume you buy in CVS discount store."

  6. Mariah Carey

Adam Levine Says He 'Hates' Celebrity Fragrances, Comes Out With His Own: Who Has the Lamest Celeb Fragrance?

He's got moves like Jagger, but he just might be eating his words. In March 2011, Adam Levine, frontman of Maroon 5 and co-host of the "The Voice," issued the following tweet: "I also would like to put an official ban on celebrity fragrances. Punishable by death from this point forward." This year, he recently announced that he's teaming up with ID perfumes to launch his own fragrance for men and women, 222 by Adam Levine.

And guess who pointed out the hypocrisy? His "Voice" co-judge, Christina Aguilera. She tweeted: "Ha ha. Adam Levine, what a difference a year makes. Welcome to the celebrity fragrance family!"

Levine, however, is laughing off the rivalry, explaining to People that the "Voice" vixen (who has fragrances of her own) was just being "funny and silly and friendly," adding, "We were just messing around." That said, he still has his qualms about celeb fragrances.

"I know there’s a stigma attached to it," he tells People. "A stigma that I fully understand because I, too, hate the idea of a celebrity fragrance, absolutely, 100 percent." So why is he making one, then?

"I kind of thought to myself, 'Well I’m interested in fashion and there’s a lot of things about it that could be really cool if done properly," he tells the mag. "So I want to do a thing that’s never done properly. That’s my goal. It’s going to be cool."

    He allowed his people to steal another designer's scent and brilliantly conned millions of preteens to buy it.

    Who cares if Adam Levine biffed up? He's still as hot as hell.

    I only picked this guy because of what he said. I have never smelled any of their perfumes.

    But I like Kate Moss `s perfume called Kate .
    and I like Gloria Vanderbit`s perfume called Vanderbilt .
    and I like the perfume called Red Door . by Micheal Douglas`s wife, I can`t remember her name.
    I usually don`t care about famous peoples stuff, but in this case it was an accident ,lol

    that's one thing of many that i despised about celebs..ok, they make a cheap perfume & they figured their fans will buy it so the make money..but SPARE ME your "occupy wall street endorsement" because you think you don't make enough money already, i also hate celebs making make up (the biggest BS industry and most expensive in the world! example: mascara: how much material is inside that tiny stick! NOT MUCH! but it's costs 25 bucks! i say go natural boycott all these products, also for perfumes, which are carcinogenics, we have the classics and real ones (and also the market is flooded with small designers and some we never heard of..already!) forgot Liz Taylor's perfume HORRIBLE!..yuk..plastic gold painted cap and all.! for that price i want a collectable flask

    HYPOCRITE
    so i guess now he should die?

    Yes, Adam Levine should die, but not for coming out with his own fragrance. He should be executed for being in a wienie band like Maroon 5. Isn't it funny how many celebrities think they should get a pass on hypocrisy? Never say never!

    how is it greed? he puts a product in macys, idiots buy it. hes merely using their stupidity against them. if they would bother to think he would be out of luck. its theyre fault. to quote the matrix 'i can only show you to the door, you have to walk through it' adam shows them the perfume, they buy it, both parties go home happy.
  • Tigger Too JAKACE 2012/03/19 10:06:12

    I consider Adam Levine "greedy" because last year, he tweeted, "I also would like to put an official ban on celebrity fragrances. Punishable by death from this point forward." I don't give a rat's hairy ass about Levine personally. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but I hate Maroon 5's music. All I'm saying here is that last year, he knocked celebrities for having their own fragrances, and then this year, it's okay for him to do jump on the bandwagon. I believe that's called hypocrisy. And greed, too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and have a great day!
