These [Champagne-popping ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-it-pop-gordons-spritz-edition) are not really promoting Cristal or Dom Perignon; instead, they are a celebration of [safe sex](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goat-condom) by the city of Stockholm.

The explosion of the popped Champagne in the ads is meant to communicate the celebration point while evoking a suggestive reference to ejaculation.

I am not sure how well that translates to their “[use a condom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skyn-supreme-feel-condoms)” message, as using a condom obviously prohibits this kind of visual. I still give them thumbs up for the positive message.

The 2008 campaign was done by ESTER, Stockholm, Sweden with art director Lotta Mellgren, and copywriter Emma Zetterholm.
