    seems there’s a whole lot of just sitting around (having your hair fixed) –no wonder the man seems so very bored…..er, I mean: contemplative….yeah, that’s it…

      He seems quite unenthused.

    It’s pretty rare for an actor/actress to do several fragrance commercials for different brands in their careers. Owen was the face of Lancôme Hypnôse a few years ago.
    Oh well, he is a very handsome man in my opinion, so I’m not complaining that we’re seeing more of him. I just hope is modelling doesn’t overshadow his acting career.

      Is it that rare? I hadn’t thought about it or noticed.

    Clive is lovely, but this is a watch commercial.

    I don’t think he likes the scent or the watch very much.

    Clive is a GREAT actor…I’ve followed his career since Croupier (a little gem of a movie he made). The fragrance is completely uninspiring. Buick had an ad campaign that proclaimed, “This is not your Dad’s Buick.” Well, if this fragrance were a car, this would be your grandfather’s Buick.
