Mustafa Is Back And He Still Wants You To Smell Like Him [Old Spice]
Isaiah Mustafa, the man who rides horses backwards and smells better than your man is back with a new Old Spice commercial that’s just as funny, possibly funnier than the original.
Mustafa has largely helped reinvent the Old Spice line, making it a hip talking point, the first commercial was genius and I was afraid a new commercial wouldn’t be as inventive, i’m happy to say I was wrong, the new commercial, in my opinion, is even better!
The first commercial has over 11 million YouTube views, I expect this new video will have just as many.
How popular are the ads? Mustafa signed an exclusive talent contract with NBC. We can expect to see Isaiah in an already existing or new TV series in the near future.
