World

Posted by Robin on 29 August 2016 9 Comments

Actress Margaret Qualley in the director's cut (the director being Spike Jonze) of the commercial for Kenzo World. Choreographed by Ryan Heffington. Almost 4 minutes long; if you're feeling impatient skip to the 1 minute mark.

    Um, whoa. Nice flip. But what does it mean?

    Perhaps Spike Jonze is saying Kenzo World is the next Weapon of Choice? 😀

    Not my thing, but there is one wow of a special effect: from 1:55 to 2:05, in front of all those mirrors, where exactly is the camera?

    Well with that much ridiculous dramatics and laser-fingers this better be one hell of a fragrance!I prefer the Shalimar ads myself,particularly the elephant-ride one…And in my books,nobody does a dignified,NOT-boring add better than Amouage.

    I loved it! Deliciously weird/odd! I wasn’t even giving World a thought, but it’s a must try now! Haha!
