+ ULTRA · 01 · ContextThe challenge

The challenge

YSL Y faced a 20% cut in paid media investment, while Dior Sauvage and Chanel Bleu dominated the social conversation.

The objective: generate organic conversation volume and direct-to-consumer traffic through earned media, drawing on Y's unique assets: Lenny Kravitz, proven superiority in blind tests against Sauvage in the United States and Europe, and strong musical DNA.

+ ULTRA · 02 · SolutionThe idea

The idea

“Blue Flag”: the opposite of Sauvage's “red flag” associations.

Music creators, not fragrance influencers, were chosen as a bridge to a new audience. They connected olfactory notes with musical notes and broadened the brand's cultural reach.
