I saw it when I made the grave mistake of watching Moulin Rouge. I think that was the only advert they showed for the first break.

Am I the only bloke here to have seen this advert? (Watching Seven brides too!). What an extreme advert!! I don't think I'll be buying any either.

No, its was created specially for Chanel to feature her, although Baz Luhrman who directed Moulin Rouge, does direct the ad. Hope this helps Lisa

Saw the advert. It's very strange. I don't think the clips are taken from her films. I think it's just an ad. Bit elaborate. Did you see all of the credits at the end?? They must really need people to buy No. 5!! Too expensive for my liking. Only have one expensive perfume and that's cos I bought it duty free at the airport in November. It;s 'Very Irresistible' by Givenchy, 75ml bottle for £39!! Chloe

Hi, Moulin Rouge is an excellent film! Just checked the website out of curiosity and it cost £18 million! It is a mini film (apparently):- 'It's a film, not an advert," the Chanel publicist says, firmly. "As he says himself, Baz Luhrmann doesn't do adverts." Julie (again).

Definitely was long Christine - like the closing credits of a film. Have only seen the shorter version before.

It's a long advert, like Glitter says, it must have cost something..

Julie - I haven't seen Moulin Rouge, which why I ask. :)

I know it was made by Baz Lurhman (don't know if the spelling is correct). He was the guy who directed Moulin Rouge, but I haven't seen the advert yet. Julie

Hi Christine :)) Ditto 7 Brides lol....... It's just got that look about it as if they've taken snippets from a film - I remember seeing it first a couple of weeks back when Moulin Rouge was on.

Hello Anne, just seen it too, have just watched seven Brides!.. Daughter says she doesn't think it is taken from her films, but isn't sure, she is a big Nicole fan! :)
