We have discussed Celebrity fragrances from on numerous occasions, because we believe everyone should smell like a star (burning hydrogen gas.) But the newest celebrity fragrance is not associated with lame pop star, but rather a lame Showtime television series. Called Weeds, the series chronicles a widow who takes up takes up pot dealing in a small town to support her family. You can find the full scoop on the Weeds website.  And in a clever burst of imagination (or perhaps as the result of a horrible flashback,) Showtime has decided to promote the movie in Rolling Stone magazine with a print ad featuring a scent strip which smells like—well—weed. Now you might think this is clever—but wait—there’s more. Ice cream trucks called Munchie Mobiles will also appear at concert venues to distribute Weeds merchandise, and brownies. We could never invent this stuff so we thank AdRants for the tip-off.
