Eau De Sanctification

1. Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott Gucci Envy
2. Frank Miller Gucci Guilty Pour Homme, 2010
3. Daniel Jackson Calvin Klein Dark Obsession, 2013
4. Unknown Gucci Envy for Men, 1998
5. Bruce Weber Calvin Klein Eternity, 1991

Besides established themes like romance, it is interesting to observe a dominance of religious motifs within the realms of perfume ads. Ingredients such as patchouli and incense position the olfactory creation as 'holy water', a spritz of sin.

Silver and gold makes a pretty couple. One thing, we all agree on: Miuccia and Rick, Helmut and Ann, Donatella and Horst. The power couples of fashion. Metallic lamé as power dressing for the 2010s.
