Prince and Vivendi SA settled a lawsuit filed by a Pennsylvania manufacturer in 2008 accusing the singer and Universal Music Group of breaking a contract over the marketing of two perfumes, a lawyer for the plaintiffs said.
Revelations Perfume and Cosmetics, based in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, sued the musician, whose full name is Prince Rogers Nelson, and Universal Music in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan in November 2008, seeking at least $100,000 in damages. The company accused Prince of reneging on agreements to help market perfumes using his name and likeness and the name of his 2006 album “3121.”
