Hey Hey All,
While I have never sniffed Le Nuit de l’Homme I do think they’ve done a great job with the ad. Not feminist inspired or even acceptable probably but I think it is the ultimate fantasy of most men. Wanted by 3 women at the same time, all gorgeous, all elegant all within a certain circle of society. The reality would be a disaster but it looks nice in this ad.
Out of interest, has anyone smelt this fragrance? Is it as good as the ad? Does the ad sell the correct product?I expect it to be screamingly masculine by the movie but….
Please enjoy the mini movie, even if it’s just to growl BASTARD at the computer,

That guy is an actor, Vincent Cassel. He knows how to work that sexy man image. I’ve seen him in a few movies. Anyway, hubby has that fragrance. It’s nice but he doesn’t morph into a hot, sexy Frenchman when he wears it. Too bad. I’m going to have to sniff it again when I get home from this little trip and see if it matches the movie.

Thanks Poodle, maybe show hubby the movie. but do you want him kissing 3 women in 3 minutes?
I like that they used Vincent Cassel because he’s is ugly gorgeous, the most attractive kind of man for me,

Good description! He’s not actually good looking but he seems to think he is and he works it. Lol. I doubt hubby would find 3 women in 3 minutes.

Vincent Cassel usually plays sleazy characters. I am surprised they would use him as a spokesperson. Maybe they’re trying to sell sleaze??

Maybe they’re trying to perfume the bad boys? He is good at what they’ve asked him to be in the ad, I believe it. Have you tried Nuit de l’Homme?

Glad u found it ! We can thank Mr Tom Ford for this beautiful picture ! It’s such a shame a perfectly shot male nude can cause such reaction. I would love to see more of this type of advertising ! …….. Like that’s going to happen ! It’s frustrating because u can push the envelope when it comes to sex but nudity has no place . It’s to confronting !!! I don’t understand .

I growl in french: oh la la, mon dieu! Vincent Cassel, eurobabe superieur. (this is as far my command in the french language takes me, but these phrases are most useful, I’m sure). Impeccable taste in men, Portia. Congrats!

Thanks Ann-Sofie,
All I can do is ask for stamps to Australia in French.
But I could write a book about that bad boy. I’m glad you approve. Ugly/Handsome men are more interesting, yes?

Yes! Vincent got The Smirk – degeneration at its’ best. And you are way ahead of me – I will never be able to buy stamps in French.Ehum…by the way Portia, would you know of any fragrance that would resemble 31 Rue Cambon in the drydown, but not quite as pricey? I bought Coromandel, full bottle, last week and my wallet is now an empty shell. Still my cravings will not leave me alone….

I embarrassedly have to admit not yet smelling 31 Rue Cambon. Anyone?

This is such a bizarre thing to admit, but although I understand the appeal of ugly gorgeous, I just can’t get past the fact that Vincent’s nose is off-kilter. Something about that just drives me nuts. I guess I’m the stereotypical example of “people are attracted to symmetry.”

Ah but I find totally symmetrical faces uncomfortable to watch. Some of the models that are as close to it as possible freak me out. Like aliens. He he

La Nuit De l’Homme is spicy with a dark side. There are clean notes as well, which are kept in the background, but stop the fragrance before it crosses the line between dark and decadent.
I hadn’t seen the ad before, but I think it’s a very good match in terms of imagery.
