In more fancy French fragrance signings news - we told you about Benjamin Millepied pirouetting his way to a YSL Homme fragrance deal earlier this morning - Mélanie Laurent is the new face of Dior Hypnotic Poison, which has previously been fronted by fellow YSL Homme ambassador Vincent Cassel's wife, Monica Bellucci. Six degrees of separation or what.
The French actress, director, singer and writer - no, there is nothing she can't do - is best known for her award-winning role in Inglourious Basterdsand is also set to open this year's Cannes film festival this week. She's one of our Paris Fashion Week front row faves so we can't wait to see the no-doubt mesmerising ad campaign when it bows into stores, even if it looks set to only be on display in Europe. Le sigh. What do you think about the news? Are you excited for Cannes?
