Rising young actress and all-around #fitspiration Coleen Garcia is a lot of guy’s picture of the perfect girlfriend. Smart, talented, and undeniably beautiful, the young Filipina has gathered millions of followers on her social media pages composed of people who can’t wait to see what she’s up to next.
We caught up with her during the launch of the Axe Black Concept Store to ask her what many guys are aching to know: What does she look for in a man?
“You know, it’s not about having a certain type of guy. For me, it’s about the little things that I notice in them, especially when you meet them for the first time,” Coleen explains.
To make your lives easier, we asked her to enumerate the things she first notices in men.
His aura: “The first thing I notice about a guy is his vibe. When a guy walks into a room, there’s a certain aura he exudes. For me personally, I like guys who have confidence, but not arrogance. You can definitely see when a man is confident in his own skin, and not trying to put on a front.“
His style: “Next to his aura is his style, since it’s what your eyes first see. I like seeing men who put just the right about of effort into how he looks. Not too put together, but not too disheveled either. I’m all about the right amount of understatement.”
His scent: “Before you even talk to someone, you can already get to know a guy by how he smells. I like guys who smell good, but not too strong. I like scents that are light and refined, like Axe Black. I know, it’s just perfume, but scent is the one thing that lingers around even after a guy walks away. For me, that lasting impression matters. “
It’s no wonder then that she took on the role as the brand’s newest endorser. When asked about how she feels about being part of the Axe family, she says, “I’m really happy to have been chosen, because Axe girls in the past have always been iconic and to be in the same league as them makes me feel really proud and honored.”
She also talked about her excitement for this year’s Axe Black campaign, where three guys battle it out to put up the best concept store, selling things that range from fashion, to grooming, to music.
“I can’t wait to see what each of them have come up with, and I urge everyone to pay a visit to their stores, so that you too can elevate your style, and complete your look with Axe Black.”
