Kylie Jenner made headlines last week after it was announced that she is on track to become the youngest ‘self-made billionaire’, but let’s not forget about the OG Kardashian business mogul (no Kris, not you)… Kim.
According to TMZ, Kim Kardashian proved that she’s just as business savvy as her little sister, when she reportedly earned an insane $5million (approximately Dhs18,366,000) in just five minutes with the release of her new KKW Fragrances.
The trio of new Kimoji-inspired perfumes, Vibes, Peachy, and Cherry launched on 14th July at a KKW Beauty pop store in Los Angeles, and just a few days later (on 17th) they hit kkwfragrance.com. Each 50ml bottle costs $45 (Dhs165.29) and according to TMZ, the total amount of bottles made was increased to meet the high demand in sales. However, despite the increase in perfume production it’s still looking likely that the limited-edition scents will sell out soon.
With demand for Kimoji perfumes going crazy, it’s hardly surprising to hear that the fragrances are bringing in some serious cash for Kim. But what is surprising, is that Kim managed to build all the hype without spending a penny on advertising for her newest launch. Yup, she built all the hype organically, by posting the scents on her social feeds and sending out ‘candy grams’ to some of her favourite celebrity pals – including, Drew Barrymore and all her sisters.
This isn’t the first time Kimmy has made millions in minutes, back in February her valentines day-inspired fragrances raked in over $10 million (Dhs36,732,000), after she caused a social media storm by posting the scents to her ‘haters’, including the likes of Taylor Swift, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Blac Chyna.Â
So what’s next? World domination?
…It’s your move Kylie.
