A few days ago we told you we’d release the name of the man who will be representing CHANEL N°5. From the 30 second video we featured on 10/9/12 you may have guessed his name. Yes, it’s that gorgeous hunk: Brad Pitt. A Few Goody Gumdrops wishes to thank Chanel for this scoop and Mario Sorrenti for the photos!

“A legendary bottle, its very own signature. An abstract fragrance with visionary composition that breaks with the times. A communications campaign that is endlessly renewed, ever bolder, forever anchored in the dream. One name, one number. And for the first time, the perspective of a man – Brad Pitt – on the most feminine fragrance of all time: CHANEL N°5″
“For many, CHANEL N°5 is an icon. For others, the best-selling fragrance evokes the eternal woman. For Joe Wright, the director of the new advertising campaign for N°5, the scent is “a phenomenon that continues to invent and reinvent itself.” Case in point: the unexpected decision to sign Brad Pitt as the face of N°5. The actor follows in the footsteps of Coco Chanel, Marilyn Monroe, Catherine Deneuve, Lauren Hutton, Nicole Kidman and Audrey Tautou, and represents a first in the world of women’s fragrance, just as N°5 marked a first in 1921 with its radical and intoxicating mix of 80 ingredient”s.
XOXO,
I’m shocked that the iconic and always classy Chanel No5 would choose to pair themselves with the low brow and unkempt-looking Pitt. Wow. Someone missed this by a mile …
