Tom Holland gets a confidence boost when he's wearing Prada
The Spider-Man: Homecoming star is the new face of the band's Paradigme fragrance and he's revealed he's been working with the design house for many years and always relies on their outfits to make him feel good if he has to walk a red carpet.
He told WWD: "I've worked with Prada for years now and continue to opt for their clothes on carpets - an environment that usually makes me uncomfortable, and Prada [has] never failed to fill me with confidence when I'm stepping out.
"I instantly felt the same the first time I discovered Prada Paradigme ...
"I like things understated. But I do think a good scent can make a difference. It's like ... an invisible accessory"
Tom also revealed he doesn't usually wear fragrance but he's realised it can also help give him a mood boost, telling GQ magazine: "When I first sprayed it [Paradigme], it was very woody, very earthy, and very wonderful, actually.
"What I love about fragrances is how it can connect you to specific memories. Sometimes when I'm having a bad day, I pull my favourite one out of my drawer and it helps me remember the good times ... "
Tom added: "I like one spritz on either side of my neck, and then two on my left wrist – I kind of rub my wrists together. And once I've got my clothes on, I might do a final spritz over the top, but nothing too extensive."
Fellow actor Robert Pattinson is also the face of a fragrance after starring in a campaign for Dior Homme, and he previously told GQ he has a "ritual" as he likes to "spray it in the air and walk through it".
Tom said of his pal's perfume ritual: "Of course he does. I love Rob to death, he's a good friend of mine – we just made another movie together.
"I can absolutely picture him, coiffing his perfect hair, walking through a mist that he's created for himself. He's very dramatic and very artsy, and it seems exactly like the kind of thing that he'd do."

Tom Holland says Bond would be 'pinnacle' of career
Tom Holland has admitted playing James Bond would be the "pinnacle" of his career. The Spider-Man star is said to be in the frame to portray the suave spy in Denis Villeneuve's upcoming movie in the franchise and while the 29-year-old actor refused to be drawn on the speculation, he suggested landing the role would be a dream come true. Speaking to Gordon Ramsay on YouTube, he said of the rumours: "Listen, there's speculation at the moment. We'll keep it to a minimum for now. We'll get there one day." The Hell's Kitchen star then further pressed Holland on the issue. He said: "Can you imagine what's going to happen to your life if you do? First of all, you'd love that opportunity, right?" Holland replied: "I mean every young British actor, it's the pinnacle of working in our industry. I already consider myself to be the luckiest kid alive. I could not have dreamed to have the career that I have." The Devil All the Time actor's comments come shortly after Rocketman star Taron Egerton dismissed the idea he could replace Daniel Craig as 007 because he is "too messy". Asked about the possibility of playing Bond, he told Collider: "I don't think I'm a good choice for it. I think I'm too messy for that. "I think I'm not— I really love James Bond and particularly Daniel Craig's tenure. But I think I wouldn't be good at it, and I think there's so many cool, younger actors who would be great for it. I think it would be wasted on me, probably." Egerton observed that leading the Bond franchise is "quite an undertaking". And he suggested that the scale of the project might not suit him, either. The 35-year-old actor explained: "That's not to say that I don't have aspirations and plans and also that I wouldn't be interested in doing something that's more commercial, because of course I would. "I think I'm a period in my life where, as you say, I've been probably following the things that speak to me on a creative level a little bit more, but, you know, I'm sure I won't feel that way forever. "But James Bond is quite an undertaking and I think, one, as far as I'm aware, nobody's asking me to do it." Egerton suggested that he might find more satisfaction in pursuing other film projects. He said: "It's possibly not quite the thing that would make me happiest. I do think it's a big old undertaking, it kind of consumes your life, a role like that." Meanwhile, Sydney Sweeney is reportedly being lined up to play the next Bond girl. The 27-year-old actress is wanted by new 007 director Denis Villeneuve for a role in the upcoming film and the move is said to have the backing of Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, with the company acquiring creative control of the spy franchise from long-serving producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson. A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Sydney is the top name on the casting sheet for Bond. "Denis believes she is hugely talented, as well as having an alluring appeal to younger generations, vital in modernising the franchise. "They've hung out together a lot and he has admired her stratospheric rise. "Plus Sydney has the quality of being athletic and able to perform physical scenes, as well as being feminine and following in the legacy of the Bond girls."
