Ambi Pur | Now That's an Eau De Toilette | Australia

Bathrooms will never be the same again with two new scents from Ambi Pur disinfectants launching in Australia.

The ‘Now that's an eau de toilette’ campaign positions the detergent brand as an expensive perfume. Consisting of a series of nationwide television ads and jaw-dropping print work, the campaign by JayGrey Sydney is about as creative as possible for a toilet cleaner.

Ambi Pur started out as an air freshener line under Sara Lee. Now venturing into the cleaning product business, the brand is looking to make an impression among Australian households, and especially women.

JayGrey is the result of a relaunch of the Grey Sydney office that took place last month. The rebranding was prompted by renowned Australian creative director Jay Furby’s move to Grey and taking a stake of the WPP agency. Paul Gardner, group chairman of Grey Group Australia and New Zealand continues to oversee the Sydney operation.

“Recent ventures including the development of a digital arm, G2, designed to keep our media campaigns in line with the new media world and i-environment, have delivered great results,” Gardner says. “However, until the establishment of JayGrey, we felt there has still been a gap in our offering, namely a strong, high-profile, extremely creative Grey business in Australia’s major city,”
