Support Robert Pattinson's new venture and buy Dior Homme fragrance!

Support Robert Pattinson's new venture and buy Dior Homme fragrance!

We have good news! Earlier this week, we spoke to a Dior representative about something that's been on many minds. If we buy Dior Homme fragrance but the DiorRob campaign isn't in the country (US, UK, Canada to name a few), will those sales be attributed to Rob being the new face for Dior Homme fragrance? You know how we do. We love to support Rob and we're all eager to support him in this new and exciting professional venture. So can we do that even when DiorRob is MIA from our malls*, magazines and more?

Short answer. YES!



The Dior representative said that since DiorRob is a global image, they are factoring in global sales regardless of the campaign being absent from some markets. There's still no word on if or when DiorRob will make it to other countries. It's not uncommon for celebrities to have endorsements exclusive to Europe, Asia or the like. We have to wait and see. But for now, you can buy your husband, boyfriend, brother, friend or self, a bottle of any of the four fragrances and you would be supporting DiorRob!

I had a friend purchase Dior Homme Cologne and Dior Homme Intense for me when she was in Paris. I can't find those scents in the states. I love them! The cologne is fresh, clean, citrusy and out-the-shower feel. It's not strong when I sprayed it lightly on the skin to get a sense for it. It's an easy scent for a man (or even woman) to wear.

Intense is warm, woodsy and even sweet, like burnt butterscotch, when it settles. It makes me want to snuggle by a fire and take long inhales along a man's neck. Intense, right??? *fans self* That one is my current fave. I'm sooooo excited for when Dior does ads geared to promoting specifically Intense. RAWR.

I haven't tested Dior Homme Sport or the signature fragrance being promoted right now, Dior Homme Eau de Toilette. I can find these in my country and I'll check them out soon. Especially the EDT since Rob revealed in Sunday Style that was the scent he was wearing during the press junket in June. Click HERE for a refresher.

It's great news to know that our purchases will support DiorRob and Dior's explanation of DiorRob being a global image makes complete sense. If you've been following along, you know we've posted a sampling of the campaign around the globe. Click HERE and HERE if you missed our initial posts.

Our readers, Sunny, Viviana, AirTita, and Astrid shared more pictures with us, as well as Flavia who visited the greatest mall on earth - Alto Palermo mall in Buenos Aires. Why is it the greatest mall? Oh because of this...

*At the entrance...


On the escalators...


On the elevators...


Lining the walkways....


THAT MALL IS HEAVEN.

Proud of our favorite A-lister! What was Robert Pattinson's salary to partner with Dior, what did he wear and MORE!

Proud of our favorite A-lister! What was Robert Pattinson's salary to partner with Dior, what did he wear and MORE!

Well it doesn't look like Rob needs to be president to ship out to Fiji. The Hollywood Reporter recently did two articles about which celebrities are bringing in the 8 figures and which celebrities make up the new A-list. Guess who made both lists?? The answer is easy peasy. ;)

Excerpt from THR:

Eight-Figure Endorsements: Who's Getting Them in Hollywood
Predictably, A-listers are the most-prized targets on Madison Avenue. Although every deal is unique, one top commercial agent says he's seeing more eight-figure paydays than ever before. Long-term relationships have become a key way to optimize revenue, says another endorsement agent who, when it comes to beauty deals for his top female talent, only fields multiyear offers. 

Charlize Theron struck gold with her gilded J'Adore ads, spinning her initial three-year deal with Dior (reportedly worth $5 million annually when she signed in 2004) into an iconic partnership nearly a decade later. The fashion house might hope its new arrangement with Robert Pattinson works just as well, as it is paying him at least $12 million to represent its Dior Homme fragrance for the next three years. With bigger revenue comes greater and more high-profile risks. Celebrities reduce missteps by scrutinizing a brand's roster of spokespeople almost as closely as potential co-stars. Jennifer Lawrence finally said yes to her first luxury endorsement when she saw she was in good company succeeding Oscar winner Natalie Portman as the face of Miss Dior.

Rob's partnership with Dior was also the main basis for his inclusion in THR's other report about A-listers salaries. Excerpt from THR:

The New A-List: 23 Salaries From Angelina Jolie to Robert Downey Jr. Revealed
Who commands $20 million per movie? How much is Robert Pattinson getting paid to shill for Dior? And Downey is making HOW MUCH for "Iron Man 3"?! THR breaks down the earnings of Hollywood's biggest stars.

It's all so exciting! Rob's post-Twilight moves are smart, lucrative and establishing. I'm definitely hoping DiorRob is as successful as Charlize's campaign. Could you imagine?? A decade of DiorRob. sigh.....

In other DiorRob news, a reader of ours reached out to Dior to find out what Rob was wearing. While we all can assume the answer would be Dior, their email reply revealed they suited our guy in only the best and most exclusive:


While DiorRob's apparel is unavailable, that hasn't stopped him from being quite available around the globe. We have tons of pictures HERE in our first post about GlobalDiorRob but here are the latest sightings from around the world (and inside theaters!) in Austria, Romania, Russia, Argentina, France and Spain. And these are just the places we're able to keep up with! Don't miss the YouTube from Singapore and we have more videos under the cut from Galeries Lafayette in Paris.

DiorRob has arrived!

And he's making quite the splash. Even with the official campaign being launched in select countries, that hasn't stopped the world from reporting on the massively popular fashion brand, Dior, and their new Dior Homme.

Rob is everywhere and he's being celebrated everywhere. The ad is practically being declared a universal success and a lesson in complete and utter hotness. Rob is gaining new fans and an undeniable sexiness is being reported.

Darja kindly sent us a scan of DiorRob in a fashion magazine she grabbed but this is really only the beginning!

We collected a sample of the goodness seen around the world, the global reporting and tweets.

Good Morning America was a great kick off to the US even embracing the ad given that an official launch in North America is unknown. Doesn't matter. Rob's fandom is worldwide and DiorRob is here for us all. Power of Rob!

While the uncensored video is breaking 3 million views, take a moment to be proud of Rob, his new era and this "momentous moment" ;)
