After releasing a series of 3 teaser ads earlier this month, Chanel N°5 today released "There You Are" the new commercial featuring Brad Pitt.

Keith Urban launches his new cologne "Phoenix" with a very funny commercial spoof starring himself and Ellen DeGeneres.

The spoof ad for Keith's new fragrance has become so popular they had to create an outtakes version of the commercial too..enjoy below.

Chanel released two teaser ads for their upcoming N°5 ad campaign starring Brad Pitt with a trio of short spots featuring the actor's voice: "Where?" ("Are you going somewhere? Where?"), "Why?" ("Do you feel lucky?" Why?") and "Mystery?" ("What's the mystery?".

The Brad Pitt commercial for Chanel is due to be released on October 15th, 12.01am Paris time, who's reportedly earning $7 million for his services in the campaign.

The Pitt campaign will mark the first male celebrity endorsement for the perfume, which has previously featured actresses Catherine Deneuve, Audrey Tautou and Nicole Kidman — but not partner Angelina Jolie, who is more endorsement-shy but was reportedly paid about $10 million for a rate campaign, for Louis Vuitton, last year.

Chanel released a video trailer today for "Inside Chanel" that tells us their brand story. The online ad is complete with an interactive timeline website and iconic advertising images from their beginning in 1883 when Gabrielle Chanel is born to Marilyn Monroe, the fascination with CHANEL grows in the 1960's, as the most celebrated stars of the time—Elizabeth Taylor, Jane Fonda, Jackie Kennedy, Grace Kelly and Jeanne Moreau—wear the latest fashions from CHANEL to Andy Warhol's No. 5 bottle.

One Direction has released a 60-second ad to promote their new fragrance "Our Moment"...enjoy kids.

The commercial, created by Cake, was posted on to the group’s Vevo channel initially and will be rolled out in cinemas and on social media channels.

The Scent of Time is a Fragrance Calendar created by Kim Weisswange of Capital Cosmetics. To celebrate the fact that she has been creating some of the worlds most unique fragrances for 25 years, Kim wanted to give something back to her loyal customers. As one of the world's most famous Perfumers (yes that is a real title and the correct term, Le Nez for our French visitors) Kim began wondering if it was possible to express time with a scent. The result of her curiosity is "The Scent of Time" and it's really just a calender.....sorry if you came looking for something earth shattering. Darling, is that Tuesday March 12th your wearing?
