Ah, ok, I just remember there were some.
But if they were successful, why aren't they still sold?
With the lashes I think those weren't a one-time thing.
I know I've checked them out when I was there and then some day they were discontinued and on sale because of that.

6,600 Yen for a bottle of perfume is expensive, especially cause perfume isn't a big market in Japan.
If you wanna check out a nice article about that:

It changed really quickly. Now there are tons of Perfume and other body fragrance stores everywhere. Especially Lush and Body Shop. At least everyone I know in Japan uses perfume just as much as here in Brazil...

I think the perfume will be as successful as her shampoo/conditioner line especially because I'm sure it will be sold at Don Quijote and other big stores just like Koda Kumi's one.

Hm, really?
I've checked the sales of 2018 for perfumes in Japan and it didn't change that much.
Just find things like that very interesting.

Isn't that normal? I remember many more celebrity-produced products that are sold until they sell out and then they're gone. Ayu's MTRL GRL clothes, for example, or all the goods she sells. They sell, they sell out, and then they're gone. Even when a celebrity establishes their own line, like Aizawa Emiri's EmiriWiz clothing line, the clothes are only available for a limited time until the next season line-up comes out.

To have things continually on sale for years, especially when it's a celebrity-produced good, isn't normal as far as I've seen. Or at the very least it's common for a product to not be on sale forever.
