Commercial for Cumming: the Fragrance & other perfume news

Posted by Robin on 15 August 2005 2 Comments

If you haven't seen it yet, do go watch the new commercial for CUMMING: The Fragrance.

Mandy Aftel of Aftelier Perfumes has recreated a perfume used by Egyptians 2000 years ago as part of their funerary rituals. Read all about it at SFGate (link no longer working, sorry!).

There is an article in Wallpaper on the new Andrée Putman design (link no longer working, sorry!) for the Guerlain flagship store in Paris.

    Oh lord, I can only presume the whole thing was an *almost* straight faced joke. (He was wearing Calvin Klein man-panties, too, which I now feel odd that of all things, this is what I'd notice.) I just adore Alan Cumming… what a wry sense of humor.

    K, I adored the last few seconds where he actually cracked up & couldn't keep a straight face. Hysterical!

    Didn't notice the CK undies & will have to watch it again now, LOL!
