Chemistry Set
Emporio Armani taps James Jagger and Matilda Lutz - a pair of stars with fashion in their DNA - as the faces of a new his-and-hers scent duo.
"It's easy to be excited in love when it's new and you're infatuated, right?" says actor James Jagger, with a sly smile. "But it's more challenging to keep it romantic as you develop and grow."
Jagger, who stars alongside buzzy Italian ingenue Matilda Lutz in a short film for Emporio Armani's new fragrance duet - "Because It's You" for women and "Stronger With You" for men - is talking about the story line of the campaign, which finds the two dancing on the roof of an idling New York City taxi and making out atop a vertigo-inducing, swaying construction beam. The big idea is that they're not portraying a fling, or the first heady flush of love, but rather a couple - well, the romance-novel version of a couple - reimagining their version of a wild first date. Hey, sometimes you have to shake things up.
... the brand's biggest image-building initiative by far is the scent duo. "Fragrance is the natural complement of a designer's vision," Mr. Armani says (though the maestro himself says he rarely wears the stuff). The new women's eau is laced with black cherry and Guatamalan patchouli; the men's with cedar, chestnut, and pink pepper. They're conceived to be worn in tandem on a couple, maybe even to share a vanity shelf.
Over lunch in L.A.'s Laurel Canyon, Milan native Lutz - who earlier this year debuted stateside in the latest sequel of horror franchise The Ring - recalls that her father, a former model and now a New York-cased fashion photographer, once posed for an Emporio Armani campaign. "Another coincidence? I was hired by a magazine at 16 to interview Beyonce" about being the celebrity spokesperson for Emporio Armani Diamonds, Lutz says. "So this just feels surreal." ... Jeans-and-Vans girl Lutz is still adjusting to dating in the City of Angels. "In Italy, you don't have to have a 'conversation' when it starts getting serious. It just happens naturally," she says with a perplexed smile. "But when I do make a connection, I don't pull back or play games. In love, I go for it."
