So TRR swung past a department store yesterday and swooned a whole freakin' lot at the visage of French actor Gaspard Ulliel staring down at us in the new ad campaign for Chanel's latest men's fragrance Bleu de Chanel.

As a huge fan of Chanel's male scents (hell, we'd be all over a tramp in Allure Homme Sport) and an even huger fan of Monsieur Ulliel, we almost came in our pants upon hearing there was also a short Martin Scorsese directed film accompanying the ad campaign.

"I was surprised to see they'd got this huge director for this commerical!" gushed Gaspard. Us too, babes, us too. So after promptly hitting up Chanel's YouTube channel (wonder if Unkle K moderates the comments himself?) a repeated three viewings AND checking out the 'making of' vid (it's about freedom and doing the unexpected. Apparently.) we're left kinda, well, 'meh'.
