Where is the romance in this. Ok - it may be a gimmick but it's in very bad taste. The fact that it took place in what many would consider to be the romantic capital of Europe makes it even worse. In any case if this company had done its research it would have discovered that women are turned on by how a man sounds and what he says rather than how he looks!
