Bang by Marc Jacobs Fragrance : Marc Jacobs by Juergen Teller

this is awful. marc has finally drunk his own kool-aid. he looks like a blow-up doll. :unsure:
 
i'm sorry, but marc jacobs looks DAMN GOOD for a man of 47 years. he's going head to head with tom ford with these ads and i love it. he has the guts to do in these ads what tom ford has not yet done in an ad....bare it all. this ad dares tom ford and terry richardson to do better.

Don't do it Tom! Let Marc win! Terry's a lost cause.

As for the ad, wooo! well I dunno. Interesting bottle.
 
Oh please........it's awful:sick:
Marc has done well to pump himself up and be ripped to hell at 47 years of age......but still........not good.
 
The pic from POP is so much weirder than the ad.. The ad looks ok but that pic scares the hell out of me :doh::sick:.
 
Yeah, the ads are a bit ick and seem to be going down a Vivienne Westwood 'Are you shocked yet?????' route.
 
Marc can use all the tinfoil he likes, but he's still outshined by the design of that bottle.
 

Graphic designer and Art Director, Peter Miles works his magic again in what is sure to be the hottest mens fragrance of the year, Marc Jacobs Bang! The campaign was shot by famed photographer, Juergen Teller, and features the very provocatively posed face behind the brand, Marc Jacobs. Grooming on the shoot was done by See Management’s very own Sarah Sibia. We think it might be our favorite ad of the year!

Fragrant explosion for men is coming with a new creation by Marc Jacobs in July 2010. This is a fragrance for men from the collection Bang, advertised by Marc Jacobs himself.

Bang was created for a “contemporary guy, who, even if he isn’t young, has a younger spirit.” Jacobs created the name first and development of the composition in cooperation with Coty followed. “I wanted to do something that I would love.” Said Jacobs. “I particularly like spice notes, especially pepper, so that became a starting place.”

Bang was created by Ann Gottlieb of such notes as black, white and pink pepper. A heart is enriched with masculine woody notes, while a base includes elemi resin, aromatic benzoin, vetiver, white moss and patchouli. The fragrance arrives in a metal flacon (50 and 100 ml EDT), 150 ml aftershave balm 150ml, 200ml body and hair bath and 75 ml stick deodorant.

The fragrance will appear exclusively in Bloomingdale`s and in Marc Jacobs’ official shops in July and will be available worldwide from September 2010.

Advertising campaign is very attractive. Marc Jacobs poses nude on a silver bed made of aluminum foil, with a large perfume flacon between his legs! Jacobs appeared in the campaign after his business partner Robert Duffy suggested him to advertise his first perfume for men by himself.

“My immediate reaction was, I don’t know. But then I came to see that it made sense. Men’s fragrance, unlike women’s in a certain way, is very personal.“

Bit tongue in cheek. Nothing shocking. Just too in your face. Overall rating: Ugly!

Down to the bottle.

Look like a sex ad from Las Vegas to me!

:heart:
 
As a person who's never tired of Marc Jacobs, especially naked & hot Marc Jacobs, I LOVE it :wub:
 
As much as I like Marc Jacobs the designer, the man really has become the designer poster child for low self esteem. If that were Tom Ford I don't think it would read as desperate or needy, but coming from Marc Jacobs during this mid-life reinvention from nebishy hipster into the cliche gay party boi, it's honestly a little sad. The old Marc probably would've found this ad just as silly as the rest of us.

Cool bottle though. Can't wait to try it out.
