Old Spice’s “Man Your Man Could Smell Like” campaign

Old Spice’s “Man Your Man Could Smell Like” campaign was a hit on YouTube. The video received over six million views in its first week and more than 57 million total views since then.

Old Spice’s campaign was successful because it pushed the boundaries of advertising, while at the same time not feeling too obvious and became a viral hit. It was also able to use data to market the brand without spending a penny. This was a huge win for Proctor & Gamble, whose Old Spice brand was on the decline.

For this campaign, Old Spice worked with the team at Wieden + Kennedy. They came up with an innovative strategy to target the young adult market.

Old Spice wanted to reposition their brand in the minds of the younger generation. It did this by putting the spotlight on a new character. A former football player named Isaiah Mustafa was portrayed as the Old Spice Man. He had a deep voice, a lot of muscle, and a confident demeanor.
