Qui est Parisienne?

Posted by Robin on 13 August 2009 10 Comments

A teaser, presumably for a longer commercial, for Yves Saint Laurent's Parisienne fragrance, fronted by actress model Kate Moss. 13 seconds long.

    Liked this. Doesn’t fit with my mental image of a pale rose perfume, though. Wonder how much of a Paris flanker it will be?

      its supposed to have a “vinyl accord evoking metal gloss and varnish”

        Ooh, is this the vinyl accord one? I may actually be interested, then. I forgot about that. (And I can’t watch the video on my stupid work computer. Although that’s what I get for using it for something other than work.)

      Sort of doubt it will be one at all, other than the rose link. But we’ll see!

    That video nearly gave me a seizure! And I’m of the Mtv-short-attention-span generation. *scrubs at eyes*
    Very piqued by the perfume. Love the bottle – what I could see of it – and the notes sound very intriguing. I’m sure it’ll be dumbed-down for the masses, but still, one can hope.

      It’s sort of silly to do this sort of teaser at all, IMHO, but I guess it’s supposed to keep everyone on the edge of their seat. The long one better be good then!

    The music was a major distraction; loud Velvet Underground / tribal mosh-up!

      Not sure it’d be interesting enough to watch w/o it though!
