How did it feel to be offered to be the muse for Thierry Mugler's Angel?
Eva Mendes: “I was so excited to collaborate with Thierry Mugler, because it’s a scent that I grew up loving. It came out while I was still in school, and both of my sisters and my mother liked to wear the fragrance. It’s really nostalgic for me! Mugler was definitely a big name in our household when I was a kid.”
You know that women who wear Angel don't change perfumes.
EM: "Yes, it's because it's so special! I recall my mother advising that I should choose a perfume that trails, that stays in the room after I have left to make my absence felt. That perfume can only be Angel".
EM: "Both, so I can wear Angel all day long. The lighter concentration in the mornings, the more intense in the evenings".
How do you like to apply fragrance?
EM: "I love to spray it on my wrists, but also on the back of my neck and in my hair, I find it very feminine...".
Past modeling by Eva Mendes includes fronting the Calvin Klein brand, both in print ads and commercials. The billboards for Calvin Klein were deemed overly sexy at times, while her TV-commercial Secret Obsession was banned in the USA for being too sexually provocative. By contrast, her collaboration with the Clarins Group ~who handle the Thierry Mugler portfolio~ has not had any of the same problems.
And just for the heck of it, here's the original music sung by Noel Harrison from the 1968 classic film The Thomas Crown Affair starring (the ultra cool) Steve McQueen and (the divine) Faye Dunaway.

I love the new ad campaign and I think Eva Mendes is great in it, but the funniest thing in this interview is that her sisters and mother all wore Angel in the same household. That's a lot of Angel for one space!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me that I wanted to watch "The Thomas Crown affair"! I like this song! And a few adaptations of it have been welcome - this one is utter failure...Have you noted the disappointment and silent disdain of the musicians when she entered the room and when she rehearsed with them...?
ReplyDeleteHello, psi.
ReplyDeleteThe graceful sense wraps your artworks.
It's excellent and lovely...
The season of colored leaves, heartwarming atmosphere.
The traditional celebration, kimono infants.
The prayer for all peace.
