Title: Beautiful People
Post by: mrs bouquet on December 03, 2023, 14:20
I am really fed-up with adverts for perfumes etc.    Scantily dressed women  (and men) who all look ridiculous
Do they not realise that some of us wear scent everyday, even when at home.   
The only one that works for me is Johnny.  He is gorgeous and "Savage" smells gorgeous as well.   Mrs Bouquet

While I accept that I am perhaps not exactly the demographic these ads are aimed at, I have found myself approving of the music accompanying a few, most notably the Chanel no5 lunar dance one from last year with music Team sung by Marion Cotillard and this years one for Coco Mademoisell to Amanda Lear's Follow Me.   The Daisy ones make me shake my head as I feel the more complex the packaging the more iffy the contents and in any case these appear to be aimed at fifteen year olds.   And as for the Gaultier ones featuring the 'friends of Dorothy' take on sailor outfits....  Dunno what the smellies are like but for some reason just a few moments of the ad makes me hostile to the brand!

Mrs HGB wears perfume every day like  you Mrs B.   I generally apply Elizabeth Arden Fifth Avenue for her during the week and no.5 at the weekends as these seem to match her skin chemistry (some others smell ok in the bottle but don't work on the skin.  Most odd).   

Strangely, as it happens Mrs HGB and I do actually resemble the 'beautiful people' in the ads. Probably.

I saw one today on the telly, and had to double check what time of day it was going out. It was before 7pm  :ohmy:

I'm rather smitten with the man from the Hugo Boss advert. As for me, I love Lanc�  :closedeyes:

Why do they all look so VACANT?

It's the fumes from the alcohol in the perfume!  :mad:
