Johnny Depp’s name has been in the spotlight for the wrong reasons these past five years after his split from Amber Heard spiraled into a defamation lawsuit with serious claims made between the two of them. However, amidst it all, French fashion company Dior has stood by its fragrance partnership with him, and will continue to do so with a new $20 million deal the brand just struck with the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.
Dior may have taken flack for working with Johnny Depp after he was on trial for sexual assault claims from ex-wife Amber Heard, but the luxury brand and the actor have had a strong partnership since 2015 as he serves as the face of Dior Sauvage. It was even reported earlier this year that Depp’s cologne continued to be a “leader in perfume sales” in 2022 “driven by the image of Johnny Depp.” With that in mind, the actor and Dior just broke the record for the biggest men’s fragrance deal ever with a three-year $20 million deal, per Variety.
