These don't make sense





OKay, so I decided today that cologne/perfume advertisements are the worst attempts of trying to sell a product EVER! It always goes like this: famous celebrity, slow-mo walking sequence, contemplation of how good they look and then a cheesy, "I feel good because I smell good" smile. Plus, the celebrities probably get paid oodles of cash for just being featured in the ad--they most likely won't say a word throughout the whole spot, but i suppose the audience can get the point without words?? So confusing. The only cologne ads that are funny and sell the product are the Axe ads, but a high-end cologne is more highly coveted I suppose. Just goes to show that us common folk are obsessed with Hollywood and think they are cooler than us. Here are two different clips of Matthew McConahahy's Dolce and Gabbana ad, and Charlize Theron's Dior ad. See if you can spot the difference..trust me it's hard!!!

PS they always drop trou whenever they try to sell fragrances?? why??!
