Imperial Leather is a British brand of soaps, toiletries and healthcare products manufactured by PZ Cussons.
[7] In 2013 Cussons ran a series of printed adverts for the Imperial Leather Foamburst range with a genie theme and the tagline "release the lather, feel the magic".
The adverts featured a family of three, each in three separate baths, using Imperial Leather whilst travelling to an exotic location by train, plane[8] or spacecraft.
[9] Imperial Leather adverts have previously featured Richard Stapley,[10] Paolo Di Canio, Ralph Ineson, Julie Walters and Paul Merton.
Cussons Imperial Leather sponsored the XIX World Modern Pentathlon Championships, held in London in 1973.
[citation needed] In 2004, Imperial Leather sponsored a theme park ride called The Flume which opened at Alton Towers.
Original Source, another PZ Cussons product sponsored a ride called Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park.
Below is an extract from a 1957 advert for Imperial Leather Shaving Stick: In Australia, two of these products have fairly recently returned in a new attempt to diversify the brand.
The bodywash and handwash lotions do not come in the original Imperial Leather scent, despite making use of the brand name, but instead come in various other exotic variations such as ‘Japanese Spa’.
