"Just drive" The Stuff of Dreams...Chanel No.5...

An 81-year-old Australian man who became lost on an early morning drive to the shops and ended up almost 600 kilometres (370 miles) away told police he failed to stop because he "liked to drive".
Eric Steward was visiting friends in Yass, a country town south of Sydney in New South Wales state, when he left to buy a newspaper at about 7:30am on Monday morning.
But after taking a wrong turn on the highway, he drove for more than eight hours before stopping police to ask for directions near Geelong in Victoria.
He said Wednesday he could not remember what he was thinking during the drive.
"I just went out on the road to have a drive, a nice peaceful quiet drive. I didn't know where I was going but I knew it was somewhere, and with a bit of luck I would eventually find my wife again," he said.
"Although we had to laugh. When we asked him why he hadn't stopped earlier he replied, 'I just like to drive'," he said.
"When you get to 80 and beyond it doesn't matter much. He's out there waiting for us and you just got to wait your turn."
And what about buying a satellite navigation system? "Why would you want one of those? You can't get lost. There is no fun in that."

It is a new advertising film that casts Nicole Kidman as the new face of Chanel No.5.
She leaps into a taxi, which already has a young male passenger in the back seat. Their eyes meet.
"Just drive," she orders the cabbie.
