Givenchy Dahlia Noir L’Eau Fragrance 2013 Ad Campaign

After Dahlia Noir fragrance from 2011 and Dahlia Noir Eau de Toilette edition from 2012, Givenchy presents a refreshing version Dahlia Noir L’Eau in Spring 2013. This perfume line, according to the idea of creative director Riccardo Tisci, embodies a mysterious and unusual woman as well as an imaginary flower that combines dark danger and tenderness, purity and sensuality.

Dahlia Noir L’Eau is more vivid, livelier and a fresher scent than the original, but it is still elegant and sensual. With this composition Francois Demachy wants to show the delicate side of the dangerous black dahlia flower. The top sparkles with cool crystal citruses and neroli, which lead to the floral heart of rose petals. The base is made of patchouli, cedar and musk, giving a chypre character to the perfume.

Missoni Spring Summer 2012 Ad Campaign

UPDATED FEBRUARY 25th 2012: Added two new campaign images photographed by Juergen Teller featuring Lowell Tautchin. Images via Soul Artist Management blog.

Quoted from WWD:

Missoni creative director Angela Missoni has secured famed director Pedro Almodóvar to front the brand’s new advertising campaign. Almodóvar, a friend of the designer, falls into place with the strong Spanish inspiration of Missoni’s spring collection.

Once again, the designer turned to Juergen Teller, who photographed the director; Missoni herself and her daughters Teresa and Margherita; Almodóvar favorites, actresses Rossy de Palma and Blanca Suarez, and model Mariacarla Boscono in Madrid’s hot spot Villa Rosa. “You eat tapas and dance flamenco there,” said Missoni of the locale, which appears in Almodóvar’s 1991 film “High Heels.” The venue and its dancers fit with Missoni’s idea of a “spontaneous” campaign, as the designer asked Teller for “dynamic photos. We all improvised freely. I would like for the images to talk about the company, not only of the product, and become institutional, moving beyond pure fashion photos.”
