Isaiah Mustafa – Old Spice Man

Isaiah Mustafa’s quick-witted, confident monologues delivered uninterrupted in one take from The Man Your Man Could Smell Like campaign in 2010 for Old Spice were an instant hit. It led to him playing the character in YouTube videos, where he answered questions from celebrities and everyday folks.

Old Spice reached Mustafa again in 2011, and he starred in another campaign, Mano a Mano in el Baño, alongside Fabio. His 2014 ads had him rubbishing other hygiene and care products for men; instead, he encouraged viewers to invest in OldSpice. Mustafa even joined hands with Terry Crews, of “White Chicks” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” fame to star in a campaign together.
