Italian denim brand Diesel has launched Only The Brave Tattoo. The new fragrance for men is a flanker to 2009′s Only The Brave, and was inspired by “having the courage to wear your convictions on your skin forever”…
According to Women’s Wear Daily, the Italian denim-wear brand Diesel needs to amp up their women’s business “following a long period where it became heavily reliant on men’s sales”. Expect to see higher prices, better fabrics, more shoes and bags, and a more feminine look. Also key: Loverdose, their latest fragrance and part of their overall strategy to attract “a somewhat older customer than before, between the ages 25 to 55, with a sweet spot of around 30.”1
The ad copy for Loverdose is mostly about sex — quelle surprise! — with a splash of rock ‘n roll: yes, sex sells, apparently, whether you’re 15 or 25 or 35. Loverdose is meant to be a “beautiful but deadly narcotic for the senses” and reportedly it includes molecules that “stimulate the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that induces attraction and desire”.2 If it all sounds like the usual fragrance marketing fol-de-rol, luckily, the floriental juice has the same sense of humor as the television commercial, which features model Ashley Smith in a series of more-comical-than-sexy scenarios, and ends with her boyfriend not bothering to wake up when she comes home and kisses him.
Loverdose opens sweet and fizzy…

Two (very) quick teasers (one is below the jump) for the new Diesel Loverdose.
More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US.
