It was announced at SDCC last month that Ikaris will become a zombie in one of Marvel’s animated series … and, when asked during the Giffoni Film Festival about his Marvel future, Richard said “You should ask them this. I’m not currently reading any scripts where I’m a superhero. So I would say I took a break after The Eternals. But never say never.”

 

Did I mention that Richard believes Citadel will be released next year … so I’ll need to take this year’s annual leave quota without any plans in place … and look ahead to 2023 instead.

5 minutes with Richard Madden on the new Calvin Klein Defy Eau de Parfum

 

Being rebellious is not enough, we need to smell like it.

Based on the Defy EDT launched in 2021, the new Defy Eau de Parfum took on a warmer and darker spin to encapsulate Calvin Klein’s core values of taking risk and breaking free. 

 

In this bottle, the alluring leather note is contrasted by the refreshing woody note stays for the EDP and remains its defining characteristic. An addictive leather accord is in the middle of sunny Mandarin top note and earthy Vetiver Oil base note to evoke an audacious manner that mirrors the campaign.

 

Set against the blue sky at twilight, the campaign captures the self-discovering and defying moments of Richard Madden, who sports the iconic Calvin Klein denim look as his eyes meet the lens with a rebellious stare.

 

L’Officiel Malaysia caught up with Richard Madden as he unpacks his olfactory journey with Calvin Klein:

 

Scent evokes nostalgia. What’s a memory that Calvin Klein Defy has brought back to you?

 

It bring backs to me the feeling of London when Summer is just starting and everything is bright, the weather it’s getting warm, and there is an energy in the air and Calvin Klein Defy to me captures that feeling. 

 

Can you recall your first scent that has stuck with you?

 

The first scent I ever used was CK One, I remember cherishing this tiny little bottle of it and though it was a beautiful smell and that was my first experience with fragrance. 

 

Do you have any tips when it comes to choosing a scent for an occasion?

 

I feel like it depends on where you’re going and what you’re doing, I personally like something that’s fresher and brighter for the days and for the evening I like something that is woodier and suited more for the evening. 

 

Tell us about the Calvin Klein campaign and how it resonates with you?

 

The Calvin Klein Defy campaign features a series of vulnerable, self-reflecting moments that culminates into this courageous leap of faith, a symbolic metaphor of personal defiance and daring to take risks. The fragrance is anchored around the idea of challenging yourself and overcoming internal or external obstacles which is inspiring to me to as an actor who is always pushing myself to do better. To defy is to be a risk-taker and authentic which are two things Calvin Klein represents, working with the brand on this new fragrance has been a thrilling experience that I’m excited to be a part of.

Calvin Klein Defy EDP is launching in Malaysia on 8th August 2022.
