Controversial Cologne Campaign
Tom Ford's latest cologne ad might be considered a little crude, but the sexy advertising technique is certainly proving effective. The commercial is getting a lot of attention for the provacative image of a woman grabbing her unnaturally round, full breasts with her manicured hands, pressing them together to show off a bottoel of Tom Ford for Men Fragrance in her cleavage. As if that weren't enough, the lubed-up woman has her bright red lips parted wide to create "an agape 'insert here' mouth," as AdRants.com put it.
