A recently launched television ad for Belle D'Opium, Yves Saint Laurent's newest fragrance, has been banned from British TV following complaints that the commercial is suggestive of drug use, according to an article published by the Daily Mail.

The commercial features a young woman, French actress Melanie Thierry, running her fingers over her forearm and later lying on the floor in a pose that "simulates drug use," according to the Advertising Standards Authority.
