Biography
Hiroshima, Japan (2001 – present)
Perfume is a three person j-pop/electro-pop group from Hiroshima who debuted locally in 2001 and nationally in 2005. In 2001, three 11-12 year old girls from an Artist School formed a group together in their hometown of Hiroshima. Consisting of Ayano Ōmoto (Nocchi), Yuka Kashino (Kashiyuka), and Ayaka Nishiwaki (A-Chan). Because all three members had the Japanese character (香) for fragrance in their names, they named the group Perfume. In 2002, they released two limited edition singles only in Hiroshima, called “OMAJINAI★ペロリ” and “彼氏募集中”. All three members moved to Tokyo in 2003 and became produced by 中田ヤスタカ. Between the years of 2003 and 2004, they produced “スウィートドーナッツ”, “モノクロームエフェクト”, and “ビタミンドロップ” under the indie label Bee-Hive Records. During that time, they performed to a one-man live three times. Because the girls were so energetic, fans acquired an appreciation for them.
It wasn’t until 2007 that Perfume gained attention, when their single “ポリリズム(Polyrhythm)” became the theme song for a nationwide recycling campaign. The day of its release, it hit number #4 on the Oricon charts and #7 for the weekly ranking, making this the first time Perfume reached the top 10. Almost overnight the group became a success, and to date they have sold nearly 60,000 copies of “ポリリズム”.
After that, they were invited to several shows and radio programs. On December 31st, 2007, Perfume performed in a concert titled “Countdown 2008”. This was by far the biggest performance in the history of the group.

@Dreamskipper The only "diversity" Kyary has is with her fashion. She has a lot of ~samey~ sounding shit, she ain't that special that way. More charismatic? Not really, they are pretty much the same.

\/ apart from that, she's talentless

vv Perfume is pretty much the same thing over and over again. Kyary has diversity, she's much more charismatic and her outfits are better, in other words she's superior in all areas. I'm not a Perfume hater at all, but you have to admit these girls were dead by the time Natural ni Koishite was released.

"Kyary is better than Perfume, deal with it." If it weren't for Perfume, Kyary wouldn't have a career in music. (●´▽｀)
