      It’s utterly ridiculous, and it might be my favorite commercial of 2012. I love everything about it: the robe, the boots, the diapers, the pounding rain, the exploding bottle. It’s perfect. Kudos to whomever made it.

        I second this. Fabulous cheese. I doubt the actual fragrance will be half as fun, but one can hope.

        And don’t forget the ludicrous husky female voice, ‘Versace, Eros for men!’

      No need these days, right? That can all be taken care of afterwards on the computer 🙂

    Shame that it wasn’t Versace who hired Brad Pitt, rather than Chanel! I can still remember the Troy trailers of Brad leaping around in a little skirt 😉 Not that I’m complaining about Brian Shimansky, of course.

    Probably the most campy and most awesome TV commercial of 2012 🙂
