Just for anyone who thought Jay's cologne thread wasn't quite weird enough...

Three Christmases ago, two of my friends bought me the Alan Cumming fragrance. When I first unwrapped it, my reaction was obviously something like "WTF? Why would you buy this for me??" But then I opened the little box and saw that they had dressed up the bottle in a miniature version of Alan's signature emcee costume from "Cabaret." Seriously.

I don't use the cologne or the complimentary soaps because they smell pretty horrible in my opinion (you'll notice that the bottle is almost full, three years later), but I do keep this bottle on display. Sorry about the quality of the photos: I had to use my phone because I left my camera on the 2 Train. (PM me if you see it!)

Your friends must either really, really like you or have a LOT of free time on their hands.

Heh, I think it's cute.

A work of art is an invitation to love.

That's so cute and clever.

If you don't want that cologne on your hands, you can pour it in a water bottle and ship it my way. :P Keeping the cute bottle, of course.
