After mock perfume spot slammed in Israel and overseas, New Right co-chair says it was an ‘excellently written Purim video,’ but admits she initially refused to do it.

Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked on Tuesday dismissed the controversy caused in Israel and abroad by her New Right party’s campaign video featuring her as a model advertising a perfume called “Fascism,” saying she knew it would prompt reactions, but “the message passed.”

The satirical campaign ad released Monday mocks left-wing concerns that the party seeks to weaken Israel’s judiciary. The faux perfume ad posed Shaked, a co-chair of New Right, as its sultry model, and an affected, whispering narrator listing Shaked’s goals — all under the pretense that the perfume is called “Fascism, by Ayelet Shaked.”
