October 11, 2007New Stetson Original Ad with Tom Brady {Scented Image} {Celebrity Fragrance} {Fragrance News} We have some great pictures to show you today, thanks to Coty who just released the much anticipated new advertisement for Stetson Original fronted by Tom Brady. Interestingly, the photographer captured a somewhat melancholy (yet seductive) air on Tom Brady's features, which might be a smart move and be interpreted as a diplomatic gesture extended to that part of the potential audience for Stetson Original and followers of celebrity gossip news who resent his escapades. See our previous post here that elicited some strongly worded comments regarding Brady's private life. Another pic here taken from behind the scenes of the shoots at a farm in California. Tom Brady seems to be saying in the new ad "I know what you think of me, I am not that proud about it myself........but hey, it's not going to keep me down for ever. Life may be confusing sometimes, but it's still good at the core." And here is the full spread......

It would be interesting to see how this current (for the French-owned brands) parallels another cultural movement in French-movie making, that of the so-called heritage movies. The preservation of national patrimony has become a core Republican value of the French. Is its seeming equivalent in perfumery similarly minded or animated by a different spirit? More generally and beyond the French frame of reference (for Piguet for example) it certainly signifies an aesthetic choice......
