battle of the perfume misses
March 7, 2011 in fashion
Dior and Chanel are two of the most well-known and famous French couture houses. Both also make a significant portion of their profit on perfume sales (because, let’s face it, that’s pretty much all most of us can afford to buy!)
It makes sense then that both brands would attempt to lure in the “mademoiselle market” by each marketing a perfume specifically at the demographic.
One brand ambassador is an Oscar winner, the other has been Oscar nominated. Both portray an air of confidence and effortless beauty. One was even the other’s decoy in The Phantom Menace (true story!)
Natalie Portman’s Miss Dior Cherie ad has been on television here for a couple of weeks and I’m quite a fan. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can check it out below.
Keira Knightley’s Coco Mademoiselle ad campaign will launch on 1 April but pictured is a sneak peak (head over to Elle Espana for more photos).
Both campaigns are classy and a little cheeky but here’s the million dollar question – which perfume would you choose based on the ads?
Haha I bought the Chanel one based on the previous ad campaign!
I don’t wear perfume anymore. I prefer the Body Shop’s vanilla fragrance.
If i had to choose, i’d go with the Dior one with Natalia Portman – oh man, very french!

Ooh.. one vote each way! I completely see the appeal of both campaigns but I have to say on this occasion I’m with vintageglammz – I’m loving the “frenchness” of Natalie for Dior.
