European Trademarks

It’s been a while since I could fine the time to do a proper trawl of the EUTM Trademark Register for recent applications. Here’s the list of applicants from the last update to 1 August 2016, and these are some of my favourites:

Firstly, I’m not sure what half the things this has been registered for even are, seriously, Sexy Elephant:Sexy Elephant Trademark Application

 

Revlon are advising you to change your deodorant, not your outfit. Solid advice:

Revlon - Change your deodorant not your outfit

 

Andrew Lloyd Webber and the lads have re-registered The Phantom of the Opera

Monster Energy are really upping their game with Monster Energy Extra Strength Nitrous Technology – SOLD to the man with the overly complicated and technicaly sciency sounding name:

Monster Energy Extra Strength Nitrous Technology

 

Microsoft have registered their relatively new app ‘Sprightly’ as an EUTM

Huawei have registered ‘Clearzoom’ as an EUTM

Here’s a list of all the recent applications:
