Subtle, sensual, elegant and soft: The Bottega Veneta fragrance short film offers a wee escape to a land where the only problem is the potential of getting our white dress ripped on a stucco wall as we pose for the camera. Model Nine d’Urso makes us fall in love with her delicate french accent and when arching her back in swan like motion and with a warm breeze lightly blowing her tousled locks, we kind of just want to reach for her to kiss her forehead. Those eyebrows! Those lips! Those palm trees!

Oh, and COTY kindly sent us this new fragrance and we reserve it for evenings when we feel extra elegant, like when we go to The National Ballet or just turn on Chopin and waltz in front of the mirror with a flute of pink champagne. (You do it too, don’t lie.) Of course, this feeling of grace and escape can also be had during rush hour on the TTC…if we close our eyes, lift our wrist to our nose and inhale the musky gorgeousness of our Bottega Veneta – that is until some jerk elbows us and we get an oversized knapsack scratching our face. But a girl can dream. Oh yes, a girl can dream. Take me inside this film and I will slowly twirl for you forever!

Does this short perfume film directed by Tomas Tomas Maier give you the same feeling? Or are we just high.
