Perfume

Perfume is a J-pop/electropop idol group from Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, which formed in 2000. After two singles released only in the Hiroshima area through a small local label, they would migrate to Tokyo in 2003 and started an ongoing collaboration with Capsule's [a367245], who writes and produces the group's material. They remained an indie group until 2005, when they signed to [l6180] and began to achieve national popularity. In 2012, they signed to [l23694] amidst growing international popularity, after their 2007 song "Polyrhythm" was featured in the Disney/Pixar film Cars 2. Their name was originally stylised in Japanese as ぱふゅ→む on their first two singles.
