MTV has entered into a licensing agreement with Global Fragrance, India's leading aerosol, perfumes & cosmetic manufacturer, to launch MTV range of body sprays (deodorants) & eau de toilettes (EDTs) for men and women.

Announcing the tie-up Sandeep Dahiya, Senior Vice President, Consumer Products & Communications - Viacom18, said, "We're excited to tie-up with Global Fragrances, to enter yet another significant youth category - deodorants & EDTs. The launch of MTV range of DEOs and EDTs is in line with our plans to expand the MTV franchise across key youth categories."
