Biborg Takes Us for a Ride in the Desert for Paco Rabanne Fragrances

After the success of the international in-store campaign for Pure XS for Her last year, Paco Rabanne is again teaming up with agency Biborg to help with the launch of its new TV spot which reunites Invictus and Olympea in a “Mad Max” style desert race. To further promote the fragrances, and the film itself, the agency created an interactive in-store and online campaign where users can themselves take part in the film’s Mad Max style race, and discover exclusive content from the TV spot on the brand’s website.

The in-store displays will be installed in Paco Rabanne flagship and airport stores around the world. Depending on its configuration, stores will either feature an iPad version or large-screen edition where players can control their characters behind a steering wheel or astride a saddle set up within the store, re-enacting the film’s desert race by dodging obstacles and collecting “bonus perfumes” as they speed to the finish line.

The campaign’s online activation offers an interactive version of the TV spot. Users can unlock “flashbacks”, bonus material like exclusive videos and “making of” footage, as well as enter to win complementary perfumes. The activation can be accessed through Paco Rabanne’s website, by clicking on the “rewind” icon directly in the film.
