*JOE wipes away sweat from his brow*

To some men, the mere mention of the words ‘Agent Provocateur’ is enough to get them hot under the collar and the collars of those men will be on fire after they set eyes on the video to promote the brand’s Autumn/Winter 2014 range, directed by and starring one Penelope Cruz.

The premise – dehydrated man stranded in desert begins to hallucinate and sees numerous scantily-clad females dancing in front of him while splashing water all over the place – is quite simple, but given what transpires in this video, we’re not going to blame Penelope for resisting the need to over-complicate the formula. It certainly worked on us anyway.

If the missus catches you watching this, just tell her you were putting in some research for her Christmas present. In all likelihood she won’t buy it, but it’s worth a shot, right?
