    I live in the U.S. and nothing really gets me to giggle more than Brad’s Channel No. 5 commericals, they take the cake:D. Anything that gets me to laugh is up there. Also like that MJ Honey, good stuff. I like it when they don’t take things too sexually or seriously, know what I mean? thanks!

    My favorite comerical for perfume was the night train Chanel did with Audry Tatou(?) as the star. Very like how I would imagine the orient express.

    Hello! I live in the US, and I’m not sure I have a favorite perfume commercial. Can I list the one I love to hate instead? 🙂 If so, it would have to be the Obsession commercials from the 80s!

    I haven’t tried any Kenzo fragrances yet, but have been intrigued by some of them (Jungle L’Elephant is on my To Smell list).

    I live in the U.S. and my favorite Kenzo is Flower Le Parfum. My two favorite fragrance commercials (can be men’s scents, right?) are the Charles Bronson ones for Mandom and the Isaiah Mustafa ones for Old Spice. I love the Mandom ads for sheer hilarity and the Mustafa ones for another emotion entirely.

    Hey Robin! I live in the US and I own a bottle and enjoy Kenzo Amour. 🙂

    I live in the US. It’s hard to pick just one perfume commercial that I like since there have been so many I like. I especially loved the Nicole Kidman Chanel No. 5 commercial done by Baz Luhrman. The ending shot of her looking over her shoulder was so beautiful.

  10. jonr951 says:

    My favorite fragrance commercial has to be, if I really think about it, the Covet SJP commercial. Love it! : )
    Thanks for the chance!

    Coco Mademoiselle with Keira Knigthley-my favorite perfume commercial, so far. But i love the Gevalia coffee commercials best, i lauph everytime. I live in the US-thanks for the draw!

    I live in the United Statres and you have permission to use my e-mail address! I loved the little films that Wes Anderson did for Prada’s Candy L’eau. So charming!

  13. breathesgelatin says:
    20 August 2013 at 1:24 pm

    I live in the US, and my favorite fragrance commercial is the original ElizabethTaylor White Diamonds commercial. “These have always brought me luck.” Instant classic!

  14. Masha says:
    20 August 2013 at 1:25 pm

    I live in the US and you have permission to use my email address. My favorite Kenzo is a tie between Jungle Le Tigre and Amour Indian Holi. Great bottles, too!

    I live in the U.S. Favorite Kenzos are Flower and Amour, though I don’t ever seem to wear them! Need to dig them out…they’re both really nice!

  16. parfumnut says:
    20 August 2013 at 2:00 pm

    I live in the US…….Kenzo UFO and KenzoAmour are probably my two favorite Kenzos. But what I have been dying to post is this question……why are perfumes getting pricier everytime there is a new release but not necessarly better and I think the prices for the Armani Limited Editions are absurd, considering I have tried those fragrances and they hardly last on the skin and are really not that fabulous. So why are we willing to shed out such absurd amounts of money for something that is not even that great. I think I have figured one thing out, the minute is says “Limited Edition” we throw all caution to the wind.

    20 August 2013 at 2:06 pm

    I live in the US and I like Kenzo Flower. As for something I’ve been dying to post: I was wondering if anyone around here wears or likes L’Ombre Fauve? I’ve been obsessed with L’air de Rien lately, and I read that L’Ombre Fauve is a bit similar.

  18. Ericgmd says:

    I live in the USA
    Kenzo Jungle L’Elephant is my favorite fragrance from Kenzo.
    Although I find it difficult to wear on a regular basis, I love wearing it during the Holidays.
    It reminds me of the scent of all the cakes and pies and delicious food available during that season.

  19. poodletwins says:
    20 August 2013 at 2:15 pm

    Hi Robin!
    My favorite kenzo perfume is jungle elephant. My favorite perfume commercial is the old chanel no. 5 one from the seventies…where the woman dives into the pool and the tagline is share the fantasy. The images and music were mesmerizing to me as a young child. And yes i live in the U.S. and you may use my email. Thanks!

  20. samantha says:
    20 August 2013 at 2:42 pm

    I live in the U.S., and my favorite fragrance commercial is “Red Flag” starring Kristin Wiig. I also used to love Kenzo Jungle as a teenager, but I haven’t seen or smelled it in a long time.

  21. saltskin says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:12 pm

    Okay, I’d have to go back a loooong way to find my favorite perfume commercial. Remember the Charlie ads from the ’70s? With Bobby Short singing “Charlie” and playing the piano? That’s the one. Maybe just because it was so ubiquitous when I was growing up. I’m in the US, by the way. Thanks!

  22. sweetgrass says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:14 pm

    I live in the US, and you can use my email. My favorite Kenzos are Amour and Jungle L’Elephant. As for commercials.. the recent Old Spice ads have been really funny.

  23. Gennyleigh says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:16 pm

    I live in the US and my favorite Kenzo is Jungle L’Elephant. It’s a very summertime fragrance for me.

  24. skye says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:24 pm

    I live in the U.S. I’m not familiar with a lot of Kenzo’s offerings, however my sister wears Amour a lot and it smells quite nice on her!

  25. gourmandcoquin28 says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:42 pm

    I live in the US and my favorite Kenzo Fragrance is Kenzo Flower Tag the edt because it reminds me of Cinema by Yves saint laurent andthat is a truly remarkable classy feminine fragrance

  26. sailorswife says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:44 pm

    I live in the US, you may use my email address and my favorite Kenzo is Amour, because I bought it as a gift for my MIL who liked it so much, she cried a little when she smelled it. Made me happy to make her so happy!

  27. PriscillaE says:
    20 August 2013 at 3:51 pm

    I live in the U.S. and the only Kenzo fragrance I either own or have tried is Eau de Fleur de Soie. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. Athough a pleasant enough scent, it didn’t smell of silk tree blossom.

  28. jen says:
    20 August 2013 at 4:30 pm

    I live in Albany, NY, and I really like Kenzo Amour for its subtle spice. The one you have pictured here is a very cute bottle.

  29. Sydscents says:
    20 August 2013 at 4:54 pm

    I live in the US and you mat use my email addy. My favorite Kenzo is the classic, Flower by Kenzo. I usually reach for chypres, but every now and then I’m in the mood for something light and delicate and Flower fits the bill.

  30. bergere says:
    20 August 2013 at 5:01 pm

    I live in the U.S., and you may use my e-mail address. My favorite perfume commercial was the Chanel no. 5 spot that used the Platters’ “My Prayer” as the soundtrack. I think it was a spinoff of their classic “Share the Fantasy” campaign.

  31. PekeFan says:
    20 August 2013 at 5:23 pm

    I live in the US. My favorite Kenzo fragrance is Winter Flowers.

  32. cieldenuit says:

    I live in the US. My favorite Kenzo is Kenzo Amour Le Parfum!

  33. Ericgmd says:
    20 August 2013 at 6:03 pm

    I live in the US and you can use my email linked to my NST profile.
    My favorite fragrance TV commercial dates back to the late 80s:
    A longer haired brunette (with a perm) Linda Evangelista is dressed in her 80s power suit with the shoulder pads and all.
    She is accompanied by her two body guards. They all go into a temple where a not-so-honest man is apparently selling all kinds of animals and umm humans too!
    Ms. Linda is presented with a gorgeous looking gladiator-type warrior. Instead of putting him in shackles to take him home with her, she grabs a small bottle of Opium, the red lacquered one with the tassel, opens it and runs the stopper on her neck and wrist. The enslaved warrior sniffs her arm and immediately becomes smitten. He submits to her without any resistance. The rest and what she does with that man at home are totally up to the imagination.
    Now that’s real drama!
    And that pre-reformulation version of Opium by YSL must have been bewitching enough to make the wildest most savage kind of male species surrender without resistance!

  34. Stephanie says:
    20 August 2013 at 6:19 pm

    I live in the US. My favorite Kenzo is Amour Indian Holi, with Amour a close second. Favorite perfume commercial has to be Baz Luhrmann’s Chanel No 5 with Nicole Kidman.

  35. APassionateJourney says:
    20 August 2013 at 6:22 pm

    A) My favorite fragrance is THIS ONE!!!!! Smelled this last week and I NEED IT

    B) favorite fragrance commercial is Parisienne YSL and the minute version of Beyonce Heat

    Good luck 😉

  36. Ty says:
    20 August 2013 at 7:14 pm

    I live in the U.S. and my favorite Kenzo is Kenzo Parfum D’ete. However, I love the old version (bottle) better than the new one.

  37. Rednails says:
    20 August 2013 at 7:16 pm

    I live in the U.S. and my favorite Kenzo is Ca Sent Beau.

  38. mrsdarcy says:

    I live in the US, and my favorite Kenzo scent is Flower EDT. It’s great for those ‘I want to smell good but not put a lot of thought into it” days.

  39. mountainear says:
    20 August 2013 at 8:12 pm

    I live in the US and my favorite by Kenzo is Amour Indian Holi.

  40. COSMICSCENTS says:

    I live in the U.S.
    My favorite Kenzo perfume is Amour de Kenzo, it’s a delicious podwery floral.
    My favorite perfume commercial right now is Guerlain´s La Petite Robe Noir 🙂

  41. Connie says:
    20 August 2013 at 8:57 pm

    I live in the US and you may use my email address. I’m afraid the only Kenzo I have sniffed (and own) is Flower. Love the Cartier commercials with the cats, as someone mentioned above. Thank you for the draw.

  42. yukiej says:
    20 August 2013 at 9:24 pm

    I live in the US and you can use my email address. I have not yet tried any Kenzo perfumes, but I have seen them sometimes at T.J. Maxx and I would love to give this one a try! Thank you for the draw.

  43. zeram1 says:
    20 August 2013 at 9:54 pm

    I live in the US, and my favorite commercial is Brad Pitt for Chanel. If he never made them in the first place, there would never had been the Saturday Night Live ad spoof!

  44. Bear says:

    I live in the US and you may use my email address. My favorite Kenzos are all from infrequent sniffings at stores. I do not own one yet. Indian Holi, L’Elephant, and Flower are mighty nice. All fragrance advertising is enjoyable to me because it is such high drama in such short bursts. Big bang for a short burst. The Marc Jacobs Bang! ads were hilarious, though not intended to be. All of the dramatic, hollow-eyed gamine ads, with vacant visages in Wonderland surroundings are entertaining to me – but at their absurdity. Not at the ability to communicate anything effectively about a particular fragrance. The Saturday Night Live parody of Brad Pitt’s Chanel spot is probably my fav of all time. It’s a great portrayal of what everyone must be thinking when watching or directing vapid perfume circuses called advertising.
    Show me the bottle, tell me how the product came to be! Discuss its journey! Then if it’s still absolutely necessary, direct a short and stylish spot that speasks to it’s true essence, not some over-done idea. I know it’s all about the image of who you are when you wear their fragrance more than the actual fragrance many times. But tell me the Real story, and the provenance of each bottle, like wine.

  48. Taffy says:

    My favorite fragrance commercial is any with Catherine Deneuve in it. I live in the U.S.

  49. poodle says:
    21 August 2013 at 5:28 am

    I live in the US and you can use my email. I love all the old commercials especially the one for Enjoli. The latest Cartier ones are pretty amazing visually.

  50. maysamassimo says:
    21 August 2013 at 8:45 am

    Hi! I live in the US. My favorite fragrance from Kenzo is Flower. I wore it a lot in my high school years. I really like the Nicole Kidman commercial for Chanel n 5 and the Lacoste commercial for the fragrance Inspiration, that featured the Tom Jones song “She’s a lady”. Thanks.

  51. jbordeau says:
    21 August 2013 at 8:52 am

    I live in the U.S., sadly for the present in Georgia. We’re not all as our legislators would have us seem!

    Favorite fragrance commercial ever: British Sterling, with the lady on the horse, natch:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PVNG4y6Q0M

    To me, not a million miles from the Irish Spring, “…and a fine fresh smell!” with the dude shaving soap with his pocket knife so you can see the stripes go right through (Celtic feel-wise):

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSUPEejzIUc

    Can’t wait to sample the new Kenzo; even better to win a bottle!

  52. Dink says:
    21 August 2013 at 9:36 am

    I enjoy and own Kenzo Amour. I really like the J’Adore commercials and some of the Chanel #5 commercials that seem to only air around Christmas. I live in the U.S. and thanks for the draw. You have permission to use my e-mail.

  53. bastet says:
    21 August 2013 at 9:51 am

    I live in the US and the only Kenzo I own so far is Flower. I would love a chance to try this flanker.

  54. emmalee says:
    21 August 2013 at 5:35 pm

    I live in the US and my fave perfume commercial is definitely the Brad Pitt Chanel No. 5. 🙂

  55. GateGirl says:
    21 August 2013 at 8:22 pm

    Hi Robin! I live in the U.S/permish to use email. I always get a kick out of the recent Ralph Lauren Polo commercials because of the vacant-eyed, empty headed male model that they use and that I Iaugh at.

    Coming in a close second is Keira Knightly’s ads for Madamoiselle since I would follow her anywhere.

  56. kathryndavis126 says:
    21 August 2013 at 10:25 pm

    I live in the US. My favorite kenzo fragrance is the original flower. And my favorite fragrance ad is/was (I don’t have tv) the jadore ads from a million years ago with Charlize Theron. She looked stunning!!!!

  57. CM says:
    21 August 2013 at 11:41 pm

    I live in the US and liked the original and amour flanker.

  58. Joanne says:

    I live in the USA and you can use my email. Don’t know enough of the Kenzo line to pick a fave, but I’m open!! I love the crazy wacky current Old Spice commercials! They crack me up.

  60. arcanaz says:
    22 August 2013 at 9:58 pm

    I’m in the US. Favorite Kenzo fragrance is probably Amour. I also really want to try the magnolia EDT but I can’t find it anywhere anymore.

  61. SaresAH says:
    22 August 2013 at 10:48 pm

    I live in the US. I JUST started getting into the world of perfumes and so am excited to try anything and everything!

  62. maggiecat says:
    22 August 2013 at 11:25 pm

    I live in the U.S. (Texas still counts, right?). I wore Kenzo Amour for a while and still think it’s a great office scent.

  63. pitbull friend says:
    23 August 2013 at 11:22 am

    I live in the U.S., and you may use my e-mail address. Thanks, everyone, for all of the interesting perfume commercials – there are a bunch here I haven’t seen & I look forward to spending some quality Youtube time watching them! I have several Kenzo perfumes. They do the calm-but-not-boring so well. I most often reach for Kenzo Amour Indian Holi or 5:40 p.m. in Madagascar.
