The document provides an analysis of the advertising campaign for the new Nina Ricci fragrance 'Ricci Ricci'. It examines the objectives of changing the brand's positioning to target 25-35 year old women, the details of the campaign including TV commercials and press ads featuring a mysterious cat-like woman, and how the campaign aims to portray an image of sophistication and seduction through its themes, visuals, and placement in fashion magazines and cities like Paris known for romance.

1. Ricci RiccifromNINA RICCI Discover the new mischievous fragrance George Henshaw

2. I decided to analyze the advertising campaign for the new Nina Ricci fragrance ‘Ricci Ricci’. The choice of this campaign was based upon the fact that it is a French perfume, and that the campaign is an important one for the brand. Through this campaign, Nina Ricci wants to attract a new target market and therefore the campaign is more interesting to analyze. The aim of this analysis is to discover as much as possible about this campaign and to offer my view upon it. George Henshaw

14. ANALYSIS OF THE ADVERTS Press: Marie Claire – Octoberedition TV: Seen on TF1 / M6 / Canal+ and TNT HEROINE: Black Dressand black gloves Cat ears and cat eyeswithmakeup Independant and confident Glamorous and sophisticated ResemblesCatwomanfrom Batman series (yousee a shadow of a cat at the beginning of the commercial) Ribbonisher power Fantasist and magical A heroine of mischiefonce night falls? George Henshaw

15. SEDUCTION: The sexy and seductive dress The flirt with the man on the balcony The giggling sounds The whispering of the voice The scent left behind by the heroine during the night to seduce RIBBON: Stands out in the Commercial and Print ad Metallic pink appearance that looks dangerous and powerful Represents the magic of the heroine and the scent that is left behind by the perfume (Ricci Ricci’s scent is created in order to have a long trail) The ribbon is her accessory that makes her become this heroine (i.e the perfume) George Henshaw

16. PARIS: Shows the romanticand seductive aspect of the fragrance It’s the city of love, culture and fashion (sophistication) Reinforces the factthat the perfumeis French Wouldbeveryappealing to other countries (the Eiffel tower has a powerfulmeaningof luxuryabroad) MUSIC: Resembles a songthatcouldbefound in a Batman movie – Gotham city is the city of Mischief and isalwaysdark The whisperingvoicebacks up the ideathatmischiefis happening on the roof tops of Paris once the night falls George Henshaw

17. SLOGAN: ‘Discover the new mischieviousfragrance’reinforces the idea of the heroinebeinglike a cat at night Keeps the elegant and seductivetouch to the commercial OVERALL: This campaign tells a story: a magical, poetic, romantic fairy tale story of a heroine making her way around Paris roof tops under the moonlight leaving behind her a trail of her scent in order to seduce. George Henshaw

18. OBJECTIVES OF THE CAMPAIGN CHANGE POSITIONING Change the attitude towardstheir brand Why? To reach a new targetmarket of 25 to 35 yearold active women How? Introducing a sophisticated and seductiveperfumeappropriate for womenwho are more independent Previouspositioningwasappealing to 18 to 25 yearoldswith ‘Nina’ George Henshaw

20. EXAMPLE OF A PREVIOUS CAMPAIGNS ‘Nina’ from NINA RICCI George Henshaw

21. The aim of the campaignwas to rejuvenate the brand to approachthe 18 to 25 yearolds. The pricewas 25% lowerthan ‘Ricci Ricci’ and therefore more accessible to a youngermarket. The campaignwasalsobaseduponfantasy and a fairy tale. But ‘Nina’ did not have the seductiveand sophistication that the ‘Ricci Ricci’ advert has. At the time of ‘Nina’, itwas the onlyperfume to opt for a more magical and fairy tale approachratherthan the sexy approachused by competitors George Henshaw

22. COMPETITORS The main competitors for Nina Ricci will be the perfumes being brought out at the same time and that target the same market. Two in particular that stood out for me: ‘Lola’ from Marc Jacobs – sexy, fascinating and seductive ‘Parisienne’ from Yves Saint Laurent Very sexy Also set in Paris by night Also wearing a black dress Emphasizes on freedom of living and loving as a woman – independence Targeting 25 to 35 year old active women George Henshaw

24. IS THE CAMPAIGN COMPATIBLE WITH THE OBJECTIVES? In my opinion, the campaignshouldbe a success: The coretargetmarket corresponds to the change of positioning The correct media isused to reach the targetmarket The campaignassembledPress, TV and event communication The creativeworksends the right message to the viewers, thereis no ambiguity(mostviewersseem to enjoy the advert and understand the message beingtransmitted) The timing of the campaignis good building up to christmas George Henshaw

25. RECOMMENDATIONS Creating more internet buzzcould have created a bit more excitement about the launch There couldbesomemisguided communication with the pinkribbonrepresentingbreast cancer. Theycould have a percentage of everypurchasethatgoes to Breast Cancer research. There is no apparent reason to why the fragrance iscalled ‘Ricci Ricci’ apartfrom the factitis in honour of Nina Ricci. Atfirt the namewasgoing to becalled ‘Capricci’ associating ‘Caprices’ with ‘Ricci’. That name has more of a meaningthan Ricci Ricci. George Henshaw
