Campaign — D&G Anthology

Noah Mills /​ 6 L’Amoureux /​ Per­son­al­ity: The Charmer

Noah Mills, Naomi Camp­bell, Tyson Bal­lou, Clau­dia Schif­fer, Fer­nando Fer­nan­des and Eva Herzigova bring an incred­i­ble amount of star power to D&G’s Anthol­ogy cam­paign. The cam­paign pho­tographed by Mario Testino cel­e­brates the mes­sage of George Michael’s Free­dom 90. Domenico Dolce and Ste­fano Gab­bana com­mented, “We all have many dif­fer­ent sides to our per­son­al­i­ties. The D&G Fra­grance Anthol­ogy allows us to express every one of them, and is the per­fect rep­re­sen­ta­tion of the D&G world: inno­v­a­tive, com­pelling, lux­u­ri­ous and lib­er­ated.” The fra­grances rep­re­sent five dis­tinct per­son­al­i­ties: “the provoca­tive Le Bateleur; the irre­press­ible L’Imperatrice; sen­sual L’Amoureux; dar­ing La Roue de la For­tune; and hyp­no­tiz­ing La Lune.” Begin­ning July 30, 2009, D&G will release a short video every week that is inspired by one of the fra­grances and its char­ac­ter. First up will be Naomi Camp­bell with 3 L’Imperatrice. Videos will be avail­able here.
