    The first Manifesto was disappointing enough, kinda cool ad but felt like I was watching Windows Media Player, lol.

    I love kaleidoscopes so this works for me! *and I hate the whole pouty model thing –really, few things turn me away faster*
    However…I still don’t feel the least bit inspired to seek this out.

      Might work better if I didn’t already know how disappointing the bottle looks in person. Plus, Manifesto, what can I say.

        heheheheh Gramma always used to say “if you can’t say something nice then don’t say anything at all. ”

        That’s rarely stopped me before…. ;)

    There was a very similar *bottle-centric abstraction set to music* ad for Florabotanica but it didn’t get much play (I think it fueled rumours that Kristen Stewart got dropped from the ad campaign!).

        I loved the Florabotanica one, but I like this one too.
