British Vogue November [Perfume Ads]

So, a little bit late, as I seem to have had the latest copy of Vogue for a few weeks. Here are the perfume ads that feature.
Firstly, Miss Dior Cherie. Still doing her cutesy pink thing. I love this advertising, although it is a bit on the cheesey side.

Diane Kruger features in a one page ad for Calvin Klein Beauty. And there's a sample of the perfume. I'm still not loving Beauty yet.

Justin Timberlake, in his jaunty hat, promoting Givenchy's Play. I read a quote from Timberlake saying something about how Play 'reinvents' perfume. Hmm. Just do the pictures Justin.

A one page advert for Guerlian Idylle. Something about the choice of colours suggest a Christmas build-up.

Next it's Narciso Rodriguez For Her. I love this purist picture of Carmen Kass.

Issey Miyake's L'Eau D'Issey. Not sure what the image is: a lily, a white tulip and a piece of bark? Criptic? Or just economising?

The Jennifer Aniston fragrance, which was initially called Lolavie, but is now just Jennifer Aniston, The Debut Fragrance.

Love by Chloe. According to the Huffington Post, the faux pas in the ad is that Raquel Zimmerman is accidentally wearing a YSL belt. The devil's in the detail.

Peace Love by Juicy Couture.

Dreams Unlimited, the New Fragrance from The Body Shop.

Ralph Laurence Romance, the perfume that Tania Sanches labels 'reprehensibly dull', in Perfumes The A-Z Guide.

And this month the back cover belongs to Flowerbomb.

It's a bumper crop this month and quite a few new adverts that I haven't seen in Vogue before.
