    Sometimes I long for a perfume advert that doesn't suggest the scent will make me sexually magnetic (although I know this one is aimed at men). At my age, this is not the biggest selling feature… How about an ad that shows a middle-aged woman finding that her untidy kitchen and sulky kids are transformed (by the pleasure of her perfume) into sunny loveliness, while an unseen hand passes her a Long Island Iced Tea? They could sell me that by the gallon, and save tons of money on the obligatory actress and male model pretending to have the hots for each other.

    LOL — yeah, that would work for me too. This one looked like a cross between a car commercial & a James Bond trailer.

    I love the music! So invigorating for Monday! lol The car and the scenery are great, but the models look so painfully young to me that they look like they're playing dress-up. But again, I am a child of the 70s/80s when experience and sophistication were vogue and that meant the models always looked a bit older than they were. (The heavy makeup sure helped!) This guy looks like he should be ready to retire in his 30s.

    My new coping strategy for everything being named “X black” is to pronounce it with a heavy umlaut. Dunhill Blahhk….

    He's so pretty…
    You should see the training materials for this fragrance. It's got a “passport” for him. For sex, it says “unashamedly masculine”. “OK then!” He looks a bit too young for that!
