The Enigma that is Feminine Hygiene Advertising

So last night while I was watching tv I heard what was, quite possibly, the most bizarre and mysterious slogan EVER for a feminine hygiene product. The ad consisted of the brand name on a black background as a male announcer said: "Vagisil. 100% woman 100% of the time." What the hell is that...
