Axe 3: Integrated campaign

Axe 3 is a set of two deodorant whose fragrances called "1" and "2" work independently but, when mixed, create a third fragrance: Axe 3. This product proposition, novel from its very conception, required a high impact campaign to generate product trial and, at the same time, needed to be anchored in the territory of seduction (Axe's territory) while fundamentally not leaving any doubt regarding what the product was communicating: mixable fragrances. The campaign was thought out in such a way so that the consumer would receive the clear message that it's good to mix and that, when it comes to seduction, they could expect even better results. Each medium had as its base the mix of woman but approached from a specific angle, thereby managing to talk ownership of the world of combinations/mixes.

Lynx: Anti - Soap squad



The Lynx/Axe babes are back, this time from Australia in the form of the Lynx Anti-Soap Squad or LASS. Witty. As with all Lynx/Axe efforts, the work panders to the typical high school kid who thinks about sex 24/7...in other words, the entire male race. Framed like a COPS episode, two Lynx girls, dressed in police uniforms you wish actual police officers (female ones, that is) wore all the time prowl for guys who use regular bar soap as if it were a crime.
