I was just coming here to say that. The image of the bottle is beautiful, the image of Diane says nothing about the fragrance, nothing about the sort of woman who might enjoy it, there is almost no message whatsoever. The perfume bottle is stunning though - almost as attractive as the bottle for Narciso's last frag.

It's certainly very fresh looking. But I dislike what she's doing with her hands.
The second shot is stronger, I imagine that to look good in a magazine, on a two-page spread.
The name of the fragrance is boring
The bottle is boring
The colours are boring
The choice of casting Diane for this is boring
The way Diane looks in this boring
The whole concept is boring
The fragrance probably smells boring

I've always found Diane beautiful yet bland, right throughout her modelling career - and this is nice but oh-so-dull. I prefer the picture of the bottle with the lily.
Couldn't have said it better myself... I'm surprised that people are surprised by these. She's beautiful, but not unique- just like these advertisements.
