You may have heard... David Beckham is gracing the cover of July’s ELLE magazine (out May 30th) as our first solo male cover star.

No doubt you’ve also seen our teaser video showing the man himself dripping with sex appeal in a lush LA location. The ELLE team’s squeals are still ringing in the ears of Soho residents. But there’s more.

The first 50 readers to subscribe to the #BeckhamELLE issue will receive Beckham’s new scent, The Essence - worth £24.95, absolutely free. It doesn’t launch until late July and, according to Coty, is meant to be ‘the perfect expression of David’s cool, untamed masculinity’.

Adding fuel to the fire, we’ve also edited an exclusive film full of outtakes from the shoot for subscriber eyes only and you’ll get a limited edition cover. Oh, and you won’t have to traipse around every newsagent in your area trying to find one still on the shelves. Goal? At 12 issues for £15 we’d say so. That buys you about four coffees, and we know which buzz will last longer.
