Calvin Klein Secret Obsession : Eva Mendes by Steven Meisel - Page 3

Miss Dalloway · 27-05-2008

She is beautiful but this is an ordinary perfume ad, i have seen this before, Meisel is starting to bore me to death, and i do wonder what the TV ad looks like.

awful pic, i love Meisels work, but what happened there... looks like shes chalkin or somethin....not a good thing for a perfume ad

i believe they would have done alot better with eva m but all the same its not a bad ad

The whole thing looks like a new perfume found down at the drugstore, a scent with cheap amber and musk notes, available for $11. And it could be anyone in that advert, I can barely see the woman's beauty, just swirling hair and a beauty spot - and a phallic bottle pointing at the open mouth of a passive and waiting recipient. At least Tom Ford brings the imagery out into the open.

It's ok. Nothing special. Nobody can sell a CK perfume like Natalia Vodianova. This doesn't grab my attention and doesn't stand out of the crowd.

I agree. I think it looks very flat. Flat face, flat body, flat bottle...

Ella Petrovsky · 03-06-2008

This reminds me of the Gucci ad with Drew. Gosh CK needs some Natalia.

Snow-White · 05-06-2008

i dont know .. it looks like another perfume ad to me!
Ive seen ads that are worse!

I'm dying to know which version of the ad has all the controversy surrounding it. I'm hoping it's not the one that's been posted but if it is, people really need to get out more.

so right! the creative team should have some fun too though

ultramarine · 06-06-2008

It kinda looks Gucci like ... and Ill take this ad over the Tommy H ad -at least this one commits-

Im not sure about the camera angle ... im torn and I like the idea ... Id like to see the commercial ... overall, to me its a yes!

ElectricAlyce · 09-06-2008

wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't for the bottle, actually

Here is the banned TV ad.

Fabien Baron talks about the banned commercial:

“You must be kidding me. This country really needs a new president — this country is so messed up,” said Baron. “It’s such a joke and it’s quite upsetting, frankly, how hypocritical this country has become. It’s OK for children to see people killed by guns? Spreading a little love right now would be a good idea.
“She is being a little sexy, but they are not provocative,” added Baron. “They are really well done. The spot is really beautiful — I really can’t believe this is happening.…I don’t know what else to say.”
WWD

I'm totally with Baron...this country (US) is totally jacked up.

**iluvjeisa** · 05-08-2008

Uhm...they could have retained the theme if they replaced one short segment where you see her breast. Just do it if you want it on TV in the US...this isn't a surprise at all, so I'm assuming it's a calculated move to be outraged.

kuli_trendy · 05-08-2008

yeah, i agree, coz i saw her nipple and it's quite too racy to be air on tv. except maybe for cable only. so far it's still good TVC.
