AUCKLAND, Today: Auckland’s creative agency, The Idea Shed, has teamed up with Perfetti Van Melle for the new Mentos campaign, Fresh Feels Like, part of the YES TO FRESH platform. This is The Idea Shed’s debut campaign for Mentos.
Aiming to give everyday moments a fresh twist, the campaign positions Mentos as more than a breath freshener – it’s a fresh mindset. Mentos sought a local touch for New Zealand, leveraging a significant Out-Of-Home media buy.
“The ‘Fresh Feels Like’ campaign beautifully captures Mentos’ essence, thanks to TIS.” – Michael Puglisi
“The thrill of turning everyday moments into something unexpectedly fresh is what we wanted to bottle with this campaign,” says Richie Strettell, Partner at The Idea Shed. “Our goal was to create relatable yet delightful scenarios that resonate with our audience, showcasing that fun needs no reason.”
This campaign seeks to make Mentos the go-to brand for injecting fresh fun into daily life. Fresh Feels Like features everyday scenes transformed by unexpected events, capturing the essence of ‘fresh’ in a poetic, relatable way.
“The ‘Fresh Feels Like’ campaign beautifully captures Mentos’ essence, thanks to TIS. Their collaborative spirit and creative vision, bolstered by our brand team’s support, were key to bringing this vision to life.” – Michael Puglisi, Country Manager ANZ at Perfetti Van Melle.
