Is this guy's entire marketing campaign based on juvenile sexual innuendo? I don't think the average man will fork over $69 for that. Why would they when they can just get some Axe body spray---same type of schtick. “…a scent that’s all about Scotland, scotch, cigars, and being sexy.…” Ok, so it smells like a cheap, foreign bar…that’s the smell I’m going for.

(My only previous exposure to his work was in <em>Spice World</em> and <em>Josie and the Pussycats</em> neither of which I'd call an artistic achievement.) Guess since posting this, I managed to get edumacated big time. The scent of scotch, Scotland, cigars, and being sexy, however, I think I can do without.

He is definitely not taking himself seriously. He was making all the obvious jokes about his name, so much so that I thought the whole thing was just a joke. I am surprised to see it is really happening. I saw Alan Cumming on a late night show awhile back pimping his new fragrance. He is definitely not taking himself seriously.

And he <i>doesn't</i> take himself too seriously, he is kind of an imp. But still! Alan Cumming has been in a bunch of movies and plays, I think including the successful revival of CABARET on B’way.

On the big screen and in the shower he’s leaving his mark!" Wow - that was subtle. Also: who the fuck is Alan Cumming? Are we supposed to have heard of him for some reason?

Although, it is kind of funny, as long as he’s not taking himself too seriously…. if he’s serious, then I’m grossed out, too!
