Something incredibly masculine, strong…

Posted by Robin on 12 June 2009 33 Comments

A "making of" for the upcoming commercial for the Davidoff Hot Water fragrance for men, starring models Alexis Papa and Alyssa Miller. Warning: very brief flashes of upper body nudity.

      of course I was watching without audio….so maybe she was stung by a jellyfish and he was just trying to revive her?

        The way my day is going I’ll be lucky if I don’t get stung by a jellyfish in the house.

          ACK! that IS a bad day!! sorry……but how’s this—third visit in 3 days to fix my pool heater–grrrr, and now I’m waiting for the washing machine repair guy because water was running across the laundry room floor! (running water = not always a good thing)
          I’m making another pass by the jar of chocolates…..

            ugh waiting for repair people. that’s bad

            3 of my things are too TMI lol One caused me to have to do laundry when I really, REALLY don’t feel like it and the non-TMI is that I managed to cough out my advair as soon as I inhaled it. grrrr.

            I ate my last chocolate cherry *cries* (I know, ew you like those? lol yeah yeah, I like ’em) what I would give for some of those Anthon Berg liqueurs right now….maybe I’ll break a chunk off that huge Belgian chocolate bar, but first I guess I better go wrestle my sheets out of the dryer and back onto the bed…ugh.

      They usually ask you to leave the beach if you do engage in such activities. 😉

        Doesn’t happen in Brazil either.

        I must admit this ad does nothing at all for me. Boring.

          Do note that it’s not the ad itself…it’s the “making of”.

      Closest I’ve come was getting to zip a really cute surfer into his wetsuit. Just sorry I wasn’t getting him out of it.

    Does this remind anybody else of the video for Wicked Game by Chris Isaak? Bare-chested guy, topless girl, beach, surf, embracing, girl turning her head away… sure looks like a reference to it, in my opinion.

      Yep. Quite a bit – that was a hot video, as I recall. I used to see him surfing quite frequently at the beach by my house. Sigh.

    On a different note, when I read of a scent that is “incredibly masculine, strong”, I imagine maybe a guy’s judo uniform that hasn’t been washed in a month, or a fragrance with moose-gland extract or something in it. . . .
