Kim Kardashian has decided to fall in line with the likes of Sarah Jessica Parker and Beyonce by releasing her own perfume. It seems as though this trend is definitely still going strong, though we are reaching the limit on celebrity perfumes.
Perhaps a Kardashian perfume will be the final straw in this trend that seems to have jumped the shark months ago. On the other hand celebrity perfumes are strong sellers so maybe not.

Online auction giant E-Bay was recently fined in French courts for failing to comply with an earlier court order to limit the auctions of specific French perfume brands to French customers.
The previous order was put in place to protect the upscale French perfume industry from lowered prices, as well as to curtail the buying and selling of imitation French perfumes.
