Juicy Fragance (ジューシーフレグランス) is Perfume’s phantom song.

Nakata Yasutaka deleted by accident the data from the computer.
In the radio program Magical City on September 6th 2006 Kashiyuka said:

Kashiyuka: “At that time that was Perfume members favorite song”.

Nocchi: “Perhaps the company have the CD. A~chan is humming the tune.”

Even though it was played live it wasn’t yet registered at JASRAC.

In addition, I’ve cut that part of the program Magical City (20060906) so you can listen to the whole part about the song with A-chan humming it while Kashiyuka and Nocchi talk about their favorite and missing song.

Check out the new site by Perfume x Pino. Current status of the website is Pre-Opening and includes a comment clip by Perfume. The theme of the site is “Minna de Happy! Negai no Pino” (“Happy Together! Pino’s wish”) using Negai (Wish) because of the song coupling with Dream Fighter with the same title.

The opening will be on December but there’s not information on the contents.

Update (thanks kurisuti!):

The capture on the right says “Perfume that’s finished their Budoukan live. What will their next wish be?” [Budoukan raibu wo oeta Perfume. Tsugi naru negai ha?]

The video up now just asks:

#1 “What did Perfume wish?” & they talk about how the answer was being able to perform at Budoukan ^^

#2 “Tell us your next wish!” & they all give their individual wishes~

#3 “What’s the Negai no Pino site (about)?’ and Achan goes off on a rant about eating Pino and making a wish, but them clogging your throat so how do you make a wish lol~

The opening date for the site is December 1st according to Achan~
