Nobody Told Nicki Minaj About Her New Perfume’s Release

While the release date for Nicki Minaj’s upcoming album Pink Friday 2 was pushed back to December 8, the companion fragrance’s release has apparently been moved up. Originally announced to be available on Amazon on December 17 before hitting JCPenney shelves on December 26, the Pink Friday 2.0 Eau De Parfum Spray has unexpectedly made its retail debut early – much to Minaj’s surprise.

“I had no idea. Was informed of nothing. Didn’t get a link to post. Just woke up one day [and] boom!†Minaj said on Twitter after fans alerted her to the fragrance’s early availability. “Noreen from my fragrance [company] advised that she’ll be getting back to me [with] answers on this right away. Apparently she had no clue either. Go figure.†Not alerting Nicki Minaj is one thing…but keeping Noreen in the dark!?

The fragrance, which seemed to quickly sell out once the Barbz realized it was available, is the sequel to the original Pink Friday perfume, and contains notes of nectarine, pink mimosa, and amber.
