Justin Bieber's new Someday perfume
Marc Jacobs' Lola perfume
When Justin Bieber’s new perfume Someday launched two weeks ago, sharp-eyed fashionistas were quick to notice something a tad familiar about the bottle.
The purple-tinted glass and pink rose lid bore many similarities to Marc Jacobs’ much-loved Lola fragrance.
Now Mr Jacobs, 48, has spoken out about the controversy, admitting that the manufacturer of his scent considered suing the Bieber camp.
In an interview with WWD today, he said: ‘We just had a conversation about it. Coty said, “Do we sue them?” and I said, “You know what? Let everyone else say what they want.”‘
‘I received Google [Alerts] about people saying it was derivative. We’re not going to do anything about it.’
When probed on the similarities between the two bottle designs, he continued: ‘I look around the room and I look at the work we’ve done and a quote I always bastardize but I really believe in, is something Chanel said: “He who insists on his own creativity has no memory.”‘

wath the hek do you men
this is so stupid. they look nothing alike. justins is much more creative and justin doesnt have to look at other bottles to make it big. it could be a paperclip and it would sell millions.. lay off marc jacobs, you got nothing on the beliebers.
^^^^agreed
WOW, GET YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES. I CAN’T “BELIEB” YOU’RE SAYING AND AGREEING THAT MARC JACOBS IS LESS CREATIVE THAN YOUR LITTLE BOY JUSTIN … AND BY THE WAY, MARC JACOBS HAS ALREADY PUT A PAPER CLIP FOR SALE AND FOR YOUR SHIT FILLED HEADS TO KNOW, IT’S SOLD MILLIONS.
haha ur dumb…… justin is creative. justin is da beast! he probably made up the bottle. he has his own imagination and u dont have to hate! my friend only likes his music and thinks he is not that bad, she says excacly(sp?) ‘i only like his music but not him, after he cut his hair he looks better than that old 5 yr old haircut. there is nothing to hate about’ all haters should at least try to be nice because they know they only say worthless shit, and beliebers take it too seriously. i am a belieber but wot u sed is mean cuz maybe he did make a paperclip but justin can make a perfume for haters……….. a middle finger……
ask your son if he can get on holiday gift center”
Marc Jacobs is a fashion god. Justin Bieber is a wanna-be singer who just hit puberty. Do NOT diss Marc Jacobs, because if you diss him you are dissing ALL of the celebrities out there. I don’t know one celebrity who doesn’t bow down to Marc Jacobs. You “Beliebers” don’t know anything, and by you dissing Marc Jacobs I’m almost positive Justin would be disappointed. Justin is in no way shape or form more creative than Marc Jacobs, and I can guarantee that. Marc said that he will not sue Justin, even though he believes that Justin did still his idea. The Lola perfume was created before Justin’s perfume and even Selena said she wears the Lola perfume, she said it in Seventeen magazine, so obviously Justin knows what the bottle looks like. Justin did infact copy the bottle, even though they aren’t exactly similar, he did take the idea of it. Justin is in the wrong. OH.. I almost forgot, Fuck you for insulting a fashion god. Dumb ass Belieber.
i agree.
i don’t agree
Only the flower is the same!! Not the color of the flower but its NOT THE SAME!!!
THEY ARE SO NOT THE SAME TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT BOTTLES!!! THEY BETTER NOT SUE HIM!!!!!! THOSE BASTARDS! :{
JUSTIN’S BOTTLE LOOKS A LOT BETTER AND LESS CHEAP!
really? you honestly think justins looks less cheap? Justins is cheap – like in price and manufacture cost. plus its plastics. marc jacobs is felt and glass and more expensive.
they are nothing alike, only the flower, but they are still really different. he just wants to sue because justin has more money.
You really believe that Justin Bieber has more money than Marc Jacobs?
Nope. Not from where I’m sitting it isn’t.
is NOT a copy.
true even the flower isnt that much same, not even the colour
They do look REALLY similar on the promo posters and that AND the justin beiber people who designed the bottle and decided on that bottle and made the posters etc would have known it looks so similar – they aren’t clueless and they would have done tones of research on what’s already in the market. so why chose that bottle?
it doesnt even look the same! what the fuck?! the someday perfume is hearts on top of each other and the bottle is clear. the Marc jacobs one is a flower and the bottle is purple
Those look nothing alike. Marc Jacobs looks ugly. Justin’s is way prettier.
the bottles aren’t even close besides the flower, why does it matter anyway, Marc Jacob’s is selling to older ladies and Justin Bieber is selling to teenagers.
Older ladies? Seriously?
so why is dakota fanning the face of the LOLA perfume? haha she’s like 14. and why did Selena Gomez say she wears LOLA then?
You have to remember you’re naming famous teenagers who have a lot of money, non famous teens might not be able to afford Marc Jacob Perfumes because they are quite pricey, some will be able to but not all of them so I do think his perfumes are aimed at 20’s and up but hey if you’re a teen and can afford them more power to ya ๐
wow they both have a flower on it THEY ARE EXACTLY THE SAME *gasp* oh god give me a break its just a flower geez!
HEY….. i am so proud of u justin bieber, i love u for wat u do every single time. but the bottles are not quite the same. i like justin biebers better and i say that cuz i mean it not cuz i love him ๐ <3.
The hell is he selling a perfume anyway? His nasty little ass is too smelly to sell a perfume OK? I LOVE MARC JACOBS!
im sorry Justin. but they look very similar
ะะผะผ…ั ะพัั!!!
Haha i luv it xxx its already on my christmas list along with never say never on dvd and some more lifesize posters… luv u lol <3
Thats Youre own bottle , And it’s Cute.<3
Love yaah <3
the only similarity between both the perfume bottles are the roses are on top. no teenagers even buy marc jacobs, but everyone is gonna buy jbs someday! marc jacobs even has like a long neck thing and jbs is like small and roundish…ily jb xx
I’m a teenager and I buy marc jacobs. Please do some research before you make a comment like that. (: And also, “everyone is gonna buy jbs someday” is a blatant lie, because I will not be. (:
agreed. and in actaull fact it will be tweens buying justins perfume mostly 13- 15/16 year olds so.
Ok all you beiber fans need to open your eyes because the two bottles are practically the same. Beiber needs to know that 1. He shouldn’t even be putting out a scent, and 2. If you are going to put one out, make your own F-ing bottle and don’t steel ideas from people who are better than you.
Marc Jacobs is not just for older women, it for women who want to smell nice and feminine.
And by the looks of the bottle, Justin’s is made out of cheap plastic while, Marc Jacob’s is made out of a nice fabric and gold plating.
But I do not think that Marc is going to sue justin. Just because Marc has so many better things to do with his time than to sue some little 16 year old boy.
Guys I am not saying this because i love Marc Jacobs, I am saying this because it is Obvious
Do you realize how dumb you sound right now?
1. He didn’t even design the bottle someone else did it for him.
2. The money is going to charity so YES he should be putting it out.
3. He is actually 17!
4. He is probably one of the most famous people in the world.
5. YOUR OBVIOUSLY JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU WILL NEVER BE AS HOT, SUCCESSFUL, FAMOUS, OR RICH AS HE IS.
Why do you obviously assume that someone is jealous of Justin Beiber just because they’re bashing him? I’d rather be unheard of my entire life than be famous for being a talentless teeny bopper pawn. That’s not jealously, that’s called dignity. I used to think that he couldn’t be that bad, it’s his fans that are actually insane, but now that he is putting out a perfume (whether he designed the bottle or not, he put his name on it), he is just a toy. Here’s some advice, learn to love real music. In middle school, I was teased relentlessly for loving the Doors when the Backstreet Boys were popular. Well, the Doors were disbanded in 1973 and they will forever be legendary. The Backstreet Boys weren’t even a decade old and every single one of them are washed up and unheard of. Beiber is on the same line as the Backstreet Boys. Grow up. By the Way, Marc Jacob’s perfume smells wonderfully modern and pretty , Beiber’s will never be in that same class.
And I didn’t even mention the fact that his bottle and flower looks like girl parts.
MARC JACOBS DESIGNED THIS BOTTLE ON HIS OWN. JUSTIN DIDN’T. JUSTIN IS IN THE WRONG, SINCE HE DID STEAL THE IDEA OF IT. AND AT THE TIME, (anon), JUSTIN WAS 16 WHEN HE CREATED THE PERFUME. AND HE IS INSULTING A FASHION GOD BY COPYING MARC JACOBS.
Marc Jacobs looks like a felt flower it’s green,blue,purple,and pink and a tall plastic purple bottle with a golden neck and golden writing. Justin Biebers looks like plastic layered hearts that are different types of pink lightest to darkest and a short round glass bottle with a purple tint and a charm/ chain, no neck and no writting. I dont see anything similar. -low key critic
lol even your descriotion sounded similar. plus it’s actually the justin promo posters that make it look so similar
I know this is old but sorry if that description sounds similar to you the you couldn’t have read the post right, what she has described does not sound similar :s
To break down what she’s wrote…
Felt/Plastic – not the same
Hearts/flowers – not the same
Green, blue, purple and pink as opposed to just different shades of pink – not the same
Tall plastic bottle/short round glass bottle – not the same
Gold neck/Gold writing – not the same
The only similarity in there is the fact that she said one is a purple bottle and the other has a purple tint and even then who cares? They both aren’t the only bottles out there that are purple :S
Sorry that was supposed to be Gold neck, gold writing/No neck, no writing.
i love the lola perfume. Jb like him or leave him. I think I’m the MJ market anyway, 28 year old woman. I don’t care that the bottles smell the same but I WILL be really pissed off if I hear that they smell the same. The sh*t they sell at Wal-Mart a la Brittany, Jessica, and Beiber should smell nothing like the higher end lines by Jacobs or any other designer who knows what they’re doing when it comes to perfume. Every time I wear Lola, people tell me that I smell AMAZING. I don’t even tell my friends what kind of perfume I wear bc I don’t want them to buy it. Has anyone smelled the Someday, what does it smell like? If it smells like Lola, I encourage MJ to sue, sue, sue!!!!!
I’m 27 and JB perfume isn’t my thing either but I wouldn’t be annoyed if they smelled the same because most teens can’t afford Marc Jacob perfumes and probably like them, so why not give them a cheap knock off? Prices of high end perfumes aren’t suitable for teens but I don’t see why they should miss out.
woops, I meant that first ‘smell’ in the paragraph to say ‘look.’ It does piss me off though that Biebs can’t come up with his own bottle design either.
you guys are so lame! obviously your obsession with bieber means you fail to see the obvious comparisons between the two designs, it’s a blatant copy.
Listen everybody, why would he copy someone? It wouldn’t make since because he is such a good person and i doubt he would do that so for y’all who that that he stole his idea (which by the way doesn’t look anything like Marc Jacobs bottle) it disappoints me that you actually think that he would do that. I don’t believe he did and I’m sticking with what i think.
The packaging of those bottles looks exactly the same. That is too obvious, I even heard that the smell is similar, if I were Marc, I would get my legal team and sue. A lot of these celebs get into the Fashion Industry and most of their stuff is rip offs of whatever the big name designers are doing. This is an obvious sign that Justin had no creative input into this bottle, he couldn’t even explain the influence of the smell to Al Roker. LMFAO!!!!
Big deal..?
It is a copy, but at least Jacobs is being classy about it. Cheers to Marc.
HHHHHHAHAAAHHAHAHH ITZ COLORFUL
No,they are not the same the someday is a totally different bottle!!! the lola bottle is a purple and red flower!!! the Someday is heats not pedals!!!! they are not the same!!!!! The Someday is better anyway!!!
ITS NOT A COPY cant u see the diffrence :@
I JUST bought the justin bieber perfume today and I seriously don’t think they look similar I mean I get where they are talking about the rubber on the lid/cap but justin biebers is a clear bottle with a charm and marc jacobs is a purple bottle with…. Nothing. Ha. I don’t think they look alike.
Plus jbs is one hundred times better smelling! And I live the purse that came with it!
Hey this is SElena Gomez & like i totallly am w/ JB because he’s like my bf , Duuuuh .

Look, none of you people are lawyers or have anything to do with copyright. No matter what you think, it is very VERY similar. And I have talked to associates in law and they have told me that Marc Jacobs could have sued Justin Beiber for this. I know some of you are saying… “Someday is hearts not petals” and “The colour is different” But no matter what, it’s similar.
But, Marc Jacobs is taking the high road. So Justin Beiber, who obviously copied a very VERY famous and expensive perfume brand (more expensive than Someday) isn’t as big of a man as Marc Jacobs.
