    This is how I'd do it

Transcript

I were to create a toothpaste brand, this is how I'd do it. I'd call it Maison de Mouth and make it all about the aftertaste of toothpaste. Because the problem with regular toothpaste isn't the flavor, well kind of, but also the aftertaste, that chemical mint that ruins your coffee and makes orange juice taste like poison. So Maison tier Mouth flips it. The flavor isn't the problem, it's actually the whole point. Each paste would taste like something you actually want to eat or rank. A chamal tea for winding down at night, a matcha latte for mornings that need energy, a citrus sorbet for summer, and fresh iced tea for chill sundaes. I'd create a community of Maison de Mouth and would host pop ups where you sip the drink, taste the food, and then brush with the same flavor. You'd leave with a tube and merch like a tea stamped with Worse of Gargle or a hand towel embroidered with foam de la foam. Because in the end, toothpaste should be more than functional. It should be cultural. It should taste good, look good, and feel good. Would you buy this? You know I would.
