AD-diction: Tom Ford White Patchouli

I haven’t written an “AD-diction” post in a while, and it’s basically because no ad has really moved me until I saw Tom Ford’s ad for his new White Patchouli fragrance popping up all over the internet. Hell, I don’t even know what the perfume smells like ( although Patchouli makes me think downtown Berkeley) but the portraits of Erykah Badu looking radiant, and naturally flawless in black and white cradling the fragrance in her perfectly manicured hand has me ready to beat down the doors of Sephora to pick it up. I know it’s not a new idea to use musicians in clothing/beauty ad’s but Erykah Badu is out there even for the music industry so I say bravo to Tom Ford for making a beautiful and unconventional choice!
