Johnny Depp, in the desert, with a shovel, and a buffalo, and a wolf, for Dior Sauvage. This is the director's cut, the director being Jean Baptiste Mondino. The music is from Ry Cooder.

Ok then. Let me see if I understand this correctly. This might smell like a smokey bar, a vintage car, a buffalo, a coyote, a shovel, desert dust and Depp’s old jewelry? I am willing to bet nothing this interesting is in the bottle…..
I think the consensus so far is it smells sorta like Bleu de Chanel. But I have not tried it yet.
(But to strengthen the Chanel connection, clearly Mr. Depp is taking to heart Coco’s advice to always remove the last accessory so you won’t be over decorated.)
So witty, you guys are.
The movie tried to veer off into magical realism, but in the end, it looks like he is looking for a justification for taking their money….hence the black eyeliner under his eyes, to cut the glare and help him see….
I couldn’t decide what it was trying to do. Made me laugh, though! And yes, that’s a serious amount of eyeliner.
And here I was humming, “A pirate’s life for me…ho hey ho!”
He just doesn’t project testosterone laden “Sauvage” to me with that whispy little beard. Either be clean shaven and project elegant “in controlness” – which he could carry off – or get somebody who can generate a more masculine batch of facial hair…
Ah, what do I know? Can anyone name a movie where Johnny Depp was being the guy? I guess Chocolate, maybe…
Don Juan de Marco, he is the Don.
Also, he wore Davidoff Zino for years, an excellent rosewood and patchouli fougere. I cannot imagine him smelling any other way….
oh, yes, Don Juan de Marco! He did really well in that…
Where’s his dog?
Ha, took me a minute!
Not Deppish at all, but the vid evokes Breaking Bad, which I rather miss. Now THAT would be a fun perfume ad.
Somebody pass him a swisper !
That eyeliner is borderline attrochous.
Is Johnny Depp wearing more guyliner in this commercial, than in all the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films put together?
I’m a huge fan of Mondino (he’s goint to direct my videos when I become a pop star!) but this could have been shot by anyone. I’m not that excited by Sauvage either. Even Eau Sauvage Extreme was a few steps too far from the original, so I’m not sure what to call this one.
Olfactory appropriation?
sorry, Mr Mondino & Mr Depp, love you both, but this ad is so confusing! What’s with all the guyliner, digging in the desert and all the fauna??
