Musk promotes a new fragrance with Dogecoin among accepted payment options.
In a tweet today, Elon Musk promoted a perfume called “Burnt Hair” from The Boring Company, noting that people can make payments in Dogecoin.
“The finest fragrance on Earth!” as Musk describes it costs $100, including tax and shipping, for those within the US, according to the shopping page. Notably, this is a little above 1650 DOGE at current exchange rates. The product will ship in Q1 2023 for interested buyers.

Per the product description, it will make you smell like you leaned over the candle at dinner. While the context has many people confused, some see it as the perfect follow-up to the “Not-A-Flamethrower” launched by the company in 2018, which sold out over 20,000 units.
The Burnt Hair perfume sale comes a little less than a month after the Tesla Cyberwhistle, for which the company only accepted DOGE payments.
Notably, Elon’s long-running romance with Dogecoin as a means of payment continues. Elon especially confirmed by a tweet that the perfumes could be bought with dogecoin.
And you can pay with Doge!

It bears mentioning that after the billionaire put the Twitter deal back on the table, DOGE spiked by over 8%. Today the beloved doggy meme token is up about 2.81%, trading at the $0.6062 price point.
