Comments:
This ad features a woman wide-eyed, begging, “Please… may I sniff your Klompen Kloggen?” The ad plays with the amusing brand name to target immature men who revel in sexual innuendos. Sex appeal is wielded in the copy text: “Klompen Kloggen’s natural tobacco bouquet works on a woman the way the subtle essence of a fine perfume works on a man.” The advertisement unabashedly targets men by objectifying women.
