Promotion Makes It OK to Put Hand Up Skirt

To promote AxeFantasy, Lowe Dubai created the Axe Mmmousepad which has a bit of fun playing off the desires of men when in the presence of a short skirt. The mouse pad was placed in Internet cafes across the UAE hoping to reach young men. Once a guy puts his hand up the skirt, he discovers his Axe Fantasy. Precitably, many of the mouse pads where stolen from the cafes, perhaps for a bit of private enjoyment.

Sandeep Fernandes of Lowe Dubai tells us the effort drove over 3000 unique visitors to AxeFantasy and generated 115,000 page views during the month-long launch campaign. We're guessing these are UAE numbers since these sorts of numbers would occur in less than day for a campaign launched in the U.S. or the U.K. All the same, we like the approach. It definitely grabs attention and peaks interest. See additional images of the promotion here.
