Johnny Depp signs USD 20mn deal with Dior – Moviesapple

French luxury fashion house and cosmetic giant Dior is doubling down on its relationship with Johnny Depp, Having stood by the star even when he faced choppy PR waters amid his

legal battle with ex-wife Amber Heard, Dior has now signed Depp to a massive deal, marking it the biggest men's fragrance pact ever, as per reports. Sources peg the three-year deal

at upwards of $20 million, which eclipses Robert Pattinson's $12-million deal to serve as spokesperson for Dior Homme and Brad Pitt's $7-million pact to promote Chanel No 5. A

source familiar with the fragrance industry told informed that most A-listers with fragrance deals pull in around $2 million to $4 million per year, such as Chris Pine, whose deal

with Armani is valued at $4 million a year for over three years. Since 2015, the Pirates of the Caribbean star has served as the face of Dior Sauvage, with an ad campaign that

leaned into his image as a wild rocker. The company was under pressure to drop Depp after a UK court ruled against him in its 2020 libel suit against The Sun over its description

of him as a "wife beater" with regards to Heard. But Depp's marketability improved dramatically last year after he prevailed in a closely watched defamation trial against Heard,

and Dior Sauvage sales skyrocketed. Bernard Arnault, CEO of Dior's parent company LVMH, even cited the "image of Johnny Depp" as one of the main reasons why the cologne had been "a

remarkable success." Also Read: Johnny Depp is living in rural England to enjoy the quiet life This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies. Mid-day
