Johnny Depp has entered a little more into history! If for many years, rumors from the corridors suggested that he was ruined, the American actor has obviously found a way to bail out the coffers. According to the media across the Atlantic, he signed a deal worth more than 20 million dollars with Dior, the most lucrative deal as a muse of male perfumes of all time. The three-year deal puts him ahead of the $12 million gleaned by Robert Pattinson from Dior Homme and Brad Pitt’s seven million dollar deal to promote Chanel No. 5.
Since 2015, former franchise star, Pirates of the Caribbean is the face of Dior Sauvage. While his image has been tarnished due to his legal battle with his ex, Amber Heard, it has improved, and sales of the perfume he represents have skyrocketed. According to LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault during the presentation of the luxury conglomerate’s 2022 financial report on January 26, Dior Sauvage was “a leader in fragrance sales” during the year, “achieving remarkable success” was “carried by the image of Johnny Depp”.
