Durex has launched a new campaign purporting to show couples a new way to utilize mobile tech to up their game in the bedroom, created by creative agency of record Havas.
A new online ad from Havas Worldwide London begins by showing a diverse group of couples describing their (some might say excessive) smart phone use. The spot then introduces Durex’s solution for utilizing tech in the bedroom to jumpstart their love lives. But there’s a twist; the “simple” solution that the brand comes up with is one that should have already been obvious, although it could still help couples if they follow the advice. The video has made quite an impression online already, racking up over 21 million views on YouTube in under a week. Adweek reports that the campaign also supports the “Earth Hour” initiative later this month. If you’re wondering what to do when the power is out, we’re guessing Durex has a few suggestions.
