after hearing oral argument from the parties at the hearing on 21 January 2003, at which the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM) was represented by A. von Mühlendahl, acting as Agent, and V. Melgar, and Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company by M. Kinkeldey, Need a distraction or fun activity?: Silverhill's 'Where's the Mayor?' fun, educational way to pass time". Gulf Coast Media . Retrieved 2023-03-22. The Court held that "insulate" had no meaning other than to insulate, and "for life" would be understood by the relevant public (here, the English-speaking part of the European public) as meaning "lasts for a lifetime" or "for a lifetime period". There’s not much information on what the Macrkell Twins did later in life. After they left the gig as the Doublemint Twins, they faded into obscurity. Doublemint Twins to Modeling In Playboy

Therefore, the sign did not have an unusual or ambiguous character which would lead the relevant public to make an association other than with the services being provided. Summary Secondly, the Court of First Instance held, at paragraphs 23 to 28 of the contested judgment, that the word DOUBLEMINT was not exclusively descriptive in this case. It found that the adjective ‘double’ was unusual when compared with other English words such as ‘much’, ‘strong’, ‘extra’, ‘best’ or ‘finest’ and that, when combined with the word ‘mint’, it had two distinct meanings for the potential consumer: ‘twice the usual amount of mint’ or ‘flavoured with two varieties of mint’. Furthermore, it found that ‘mint’ is a generic term which includes spearmint, peppermint and other culinary herbs, and that there are several possible ways of combining two sorts of mint and, in addition, various strengths of flavour are possible in the case of each combination.

The German Government, also intervening in support of OHIM, submits that the word DOUBLEMINT is a purely descriptive indication that anybody must be able to use freely. The possible multiplicity of meanings inherent in the components of the description does not contradict that view. Those other meanings are all of a descriptive nature, including in German-speaking countries, as indeed the Bundespatentgericht and the Bundesgerichtshof have held in relation to the words ‘Marktfrisch’, ‘Doppel Caramel’, ‘Double Color’ and ‘Double Action’. Trident is known for making chewing gum that provides long-lasting flavor, meaning that you don't have to keep getting new pieces or just keep chewing on the same flavorless piece long after it actually tastes good. And since Trident Cinnamon tastes so good in the first place, it only makes sense that you'd want the flavor to last as long as possible. And the best part? It doesn't contain aspartame, unlike many other gums out there on the market. In its observations, Wrigley claims that the word DOUBLEMINT wholly satisfies the conditions laid down by the Court of Justice in Case C-383/99 P Procter & Gamble v OHIM [2001] ECR I-6251 relating to the BABY-DRY trade mark for a word to be accepted as having distinctive character. The ECJ agreed with the CFI in that the components "EURO" and "HYPO" were descriptive and the overall concept of "EUROHYPO" did not give an overall impression that went beyond the sum of its parts. There was no additional unusual element to distinguish the applicant's service from those of a different commercial origin. HOMEZONE

The actual flavorings used in Doublemint gum are a trade secret, but the company does say that the main flavor ingredient is peppermint. Although it is not a sugarless gum, in 2003 Wrigley's replaced some of the sugar with artificial sweeteners aspartame and acesulfame potassium.

With the changing nature of people’s lifestyles, providing an on-the-go breath freshener which can be enjoyed regularly – due to its sugar-free credentials – is something we identified as a key demand in the category.”Thirdly, the Court of First Instance found, at paragraph 29 of the contested decision, that the numerous meanings of DOUBLEMINT are immediately apparent, at least by association or by allusion, to an average English-speaking consumer and thus deprive that sign of any descriptive function, for the purposes of Article 7(1)(c) of Regulation No 40/94, whereas for a consumer who does not have a sufficient mastery of the English language, the word will, by its very nature, have a vague and fanciful meaning. By an application lodged at the Registry of the Court of First Instance on 1 September 1999, Wrigley brought an action for annulment of the contested decision. The Court of First Instance upheld that action. In this 2010 case, the EU General Court annulled the OHIM Board of Appeal's decision to reject the application to register HOMEZONE as a CTM for telecoms goods and services.

In fact, one Extra Polar Ice chewer was such a big fan that they wrote a whole blog post about the gum, saying, "The flavor of Extra Polar Ice is unlike any other mint gum on the market today. It's sort of a sweet-mint, closer to a wintermint flavor than a pepper or spearmint. It refreshes the mouth from the very first chew, [eradicating] any hint of offensive odor your breath may have had. The flavor is not only pleasant, but it lasts and lasts." Trident Layers, “Paid in Gum.” Trident marketed itself as a dentist-recommended gum in the 1970s with their slogan, “Four out of five dentists surveyed recommend sugarless gum for their patients who chew gum.” It was one of several chewing gums that touted its health benefits and became recognized by the American Dental Association for its ability to help prevent cavities when chewed for 20 minutes after eating (but only if it’s sugarless). The brand later maintained the focus on chewing gum to prevent cavities. Still, it shifted its messaging to trendier campaigns and shortened taglines like, “Flavor for your taste without sugar for your teeth.” They spent every moment of their life, promoting the gum and made great money doing so. They lived in a beautiful apartment and bought a mink coat for their mother. The examiner at OHIM rejected that application by decision of 13 October 1998, following which Wrigley brought an appeal before OHIM. In so doing, the Court of First Instance applied a test based on whether the mark is ‘exclusively descriptive’, which is not the test laid down by Article 7(1)(c) of Regulation No 40/94.
