Old Perfume Ad


Don't get me wrong, I love perfume ads today. But sometimes I can't help but thinking them a little--how to put it--too literal. Old perfume ads, in contrast, are more ambiguous, indirect. I used to see an old perfume ad from Worth, which was abstract. But it made me very happy. Making people "feel" the perfume, I think that's what perfume ads should do.
