LOLA MullenLowe Presents a Scented Lynx/Axe Campaign
References: mullenloweglobal
Creative agency LOLA MullenLowe has presented a new interactive campaign which is meant to encourage passersby to scratch and sniff. The playful marketing embeds the fragrance into the large street ads and Lynx encourages anyone to take a whiff. Each visual is complete in black and white of the male models wearing boxer briefs which is a comedic and cheeky approach.
There is a bright circle highlighting their groin area and inviting visitors to literally be nosey. The technology uses microencapsulated fragrance beads which are integrated into the ink. When scratched, it releases the scent of the brand's new spray. The campaign rolls out across London streets and throughout men's lifestyle magazines to look out for.
