(nsfw) Pretentious perfume campaign has boobies.
(click ads, via) Why? So some "artsy" men could stare at tits in a studio all day. Stockholm-based perfumer Byredo, in collaboration with French design house M/M, launched M/Mink in September. These are the first ads. The ink blotches are supposed to represent Japanese calligraphy. No faces, so lower model fees! From the M/M website:
"This scent, which is firstly that of ink, is transformed gradually to the idea of ink, before finally arriving at a scent that will remind you of the ink that is most precious: the blood that flows in our body."
So, notes of blood and ink? And money.

Just looking at the ad, I was reading it as *mink* perfume. Ignoring that mink don't smell great (kinda like weasels or ferrets), I had thought it was a reference to PETA's tendency to throw paint at people wearing fur. Not exactly a positive association.
That thought came to me also. Their logo is murky.
