    So Kenzo style… but that’s amazing commercial. I love Chrome and love this ad.

      That was my first thought: Kenzo! Glad I’m not alone.

    I’m too darned practical. All I could think was a) how did they get the glider airborne without a winch or another aircraft in sight, and b) who in their right mind would wear all-white to go flying in a machine that will cover you with dust and oil? My inner housewife couldn’t concentrate on the perfume!

      Nina, I totally agree…(Okay its a glider and HOW did they get up there??) Beautiful song, beautiful (and extremely happy) boys, probably a fragrance I would try based on the subliminal effect this ad had on me, BUT a bit too perfect for the imperfect likes of me!

      You guys crack me up. I guess I’m practical but not *that* practical.

    Guys, you are right! Definately has similarities with Kenzo style and has slightly do to anything with “sport” 🙂
    However, I really like this ad because if tries to sell cologne NOT using sweating muscled macho (like Davidoff Hot Water and a million others) and/or sweating sexy women who look like prostitutes (like YSL Parisienne and million others).
    I’m really bored of naked bodies and persons in sexual extasy selling perfumes!

      I agree…much better than the “sex sells” ads.
