Dakota Fanning 'Oh, Lola' Perfume Ad Banned in Britain

Perfume ad banned in UK

A perfume ad featuring Dakota Fanning has been banned in England for being too "sexually provocative."

The ad for Marc Jacobs' Oh, Lola! fragrance featured the 17-year-old teen actress in a nude-colored dress holding a bottle between her legs.

The ad appeared in several magazines and newspaper supplements across the U.K. The ad has been yanked after Britain's Advertising Standards Authority received complaints from readers who said the ad portrayed the actress in "a sexualized manner."

"We considered that the length of her dress, her leg and position of the perfume bottle drew attention to her sexuality," the ASA said in a statement.

Designer Jacobs recently described his new fragrance Oh, Lola! as "sensual," saying the fragrance - a sister scent to the hugely successful 2008 Lola perfume - is "more Lolita than a Lola."
