Sweet as can be, it is finally wrapped in the captivating notes of red vanilla.

The advertising

Burlesque, Pinterest and orchids

The campaign shows model Marjan Jonkman in a Viktor&Rolf costume with a spectacular structure, blending tulle, sequin embroidery and a profusion of orchids, with colorful makeup and a diamond headpiece, according to The Fragrance Shop.

For the launch, the plan runs through Pinterest and its Idea Ads advertising format, then in beta, rather than through TikTok, with drag queen Nicky Doll as creative partner. The content stages a drag transformation triggered by a spray of the fragrance, with each character presented as avant-garde and tinged with burlesque. This is the house's second collaboration with Pinterest, after a campaign devoted to the original Flowerbomb.
