Maison Francis Kurkdjian launches “Homes Sweet Homes” line of scented candles

Maison Francis Kurkdjian launches “Homes Sweet Homes” line of scented candles

 

Paris, 2017-Oct-18 — /EPR Retail News/ — Childhood homes rich in memories were the starting point for a new collection of scented candles introduced by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Dubbed “Homes Sweet Homes”, the line of five scented candles recounts personal stories that have nourished the olfactory memory of Francis Kurkdjian, the perfumer of the eponymous Maison.

Francis Kurkdjian has translated cherished memories into colors and scents, creating a collection of five candles that bring together his talent as a perfumer and personal memories.

“Rue des Groseilliers”, the street where he grew up a dozen miles from Paris, evokes the bright red berries found in the garden every summer, with their sweet juicy savors. “Anouche” proposes a a smooth, flowery sweetness with lightly honeyed and spicy notes, rekindling the unforgettable memory of the rose petal and plum jam made by his grandmother. “La Trouverie” harks back to escapades at an old farm in the French countryside of Le Perche, with an aroma of fresh straw, lavender, thyme and rosemary. “Les Tamaris” revisits the scent of everlasting flowers and acacias that grow on the Atlantic coast, where the perfumer loves to vacation with his family. And with “Au 17”, Francis Kurkdjian encapsulates the cozy and eclectic atmosphere of his Paris apartment with the mingled aromas of an open fire and Japanese incense.

From the design of the mold to the hand-decorated box, manual craftsmanship has guided the creation of this collection of scented candles, expressing the intimate memories of these special places.

James Franco becomes the face of Coach For Men, the new fragrance launching in September

An actor, director, writer, artist and philanthropist, James Franco embodies the creativity, confidence, curiosity and innate style of the Coach Guy. He is dynamic, daring, magnetic and multifaceted. He is defined by harmonious dualities: rugged yet refined, fearless and brave yet thoughtful and grounded. He has a rebellious spirit—and it’s perfectly fitting that he once played James Dean.

“James is the quintessential-cool Coach guy. He’s handsome, there’s a bit of danger and he’s thoughtful and challenging, energetic and prolific,” Stuart Vevers said. “He represents so many of the references I’ve used at Coach—references of American style that resonate around the world.”

“Creativity is the way I engage with life. It’s the way I engage with other people and communicate, and it’s really the way I find meaning in life,” said James Franco. “I enjoyed collaborating with Stuart. There are a lot of references to Coach tradition in his designs, but with an added spin, and that idea is something I have done in my creative work.”

Guerlain opens new parfumeur boutique in Brussels; More international openings to follow

Guerlain opens new parfumeur boutique in Brussels; More international openings to follow

 

Paris, 2017-May-25 — /EPR Retail News/ — Following the success of its first concept store in Paris in 2016, Maison Guerlain is now opening boutiques dedicated exclusively to fragrances in other countries. The new boutique on prestigious avenue Louise in Brussels offers an unprecedented personalization experience. More international openings will follow under the timeless signature “Guerlain Parfumeur depuis 1828”.

Building on the success of its first boutique dedicated exclusively to fragrances on rue Saint Honoré in Paris, Maison Guerlain is taking this innovative retail concept celebrating its métier of parfumeur to other countries. The first international boutique in Brussels boasts a prestigious address at 52, avenue Louise. The new boutique embodies Guerlain’s distinctive heritage and savoir-faire in crafting perfumes for nearly 190 years, proposing a unique experience for customers revolving around completely tailor-made products and services.

With 110 fragrances immediately available, this new jewel case of a boutique creates a total immersion into the heart of Guerlain’s bold creativity. Following a meticulous classification of the fragrance collection into four main olfactory families, customers can take advantage of a digital fragrance consultation to identify their personal olfactory profile and, thanks to a powerful algorithm, find their very own “signature fragrance”.

After choosing their fragrance, customers are invited to the personalization atelier, the heart of the boutique. There, they select every detail to make the fragrance their own – bottle shape and color, engraved message in any language, plus a choice of ribbons and bows to embellish the bottles. What’s more, the iconic honeycomb “bee” bottles can be refilled forever at Guerlain’s fragrance fountains, an elegant combination of luxury and sustainability. To guarantee the perfect quality of fragrances, the scents are kept in a temperature-controlled “perfume cellar” behind UV-blocking glass – just like grand crus wines.

This ambitious international deployment is just beginning as the Maison brings the exquisite marvels of Guerlain Parfumeur to fragrance lovers around the world.

LVMH to acquire majority share in Maison Francis Kurkdjian

LVMH to acquire majority share in Maison Francis Kurkdjian

 

Paris, 2017-Mar-23 — /EPR Retail News/ — Motivated by a shared vision of French perfume making and the creativity that inspires it, LVMH and Maison Francis Kurkdjian have announced their association in order to jointly pursue the long-term development of the fragrance House. Under the agreement LVMH will acquire a majority share in Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Marc Chaya and Francis Kurkdjian will continue in their current roles as Chief Executive Officer and Creative Director, respectively, and will remain shareholders of the company.

Maison Francis Kurkdjian has since its founding in 2009 created contemporary fragrances characterized by excellence, savoir-faire and audacity. Consistent with the vision of the two founders, Maison Francis Kurkdjian is emblematic of a new generation of exclusive and atypical fragrance Houses. The House’s fragrance collection is conceived as a “fragrance wardrobe”. Committed to uncompromising quality in the unique tradition of French fine perfumery, the House at the same time proposes a contemporary vision of the art of creating and wearing perfume. Maison Francis Kurkdjian is currently present in 40 countries and in 2016 became a member of the Comité Colbert, the association that promotes French luxury and art de vivre around the world.

Internationally-renowned perfumer Francis Kurkdjian has designed visionary fragrances that meld exacting quality and contemporary flair for leading names in beauty and fashion. He has in particular collaborated with several LVMH Houses, including Acqua di Parma, Christian Dior, Guerlain and, most recently, Kenzo. For more than 20 years he has explored new creative territories in fragrances through his own bespoke fragrance atelier, collaborations with artists and pop-up installations. Francis Kurkdjian received the honorary title of Chevalier des Arts et Lettres in 2008. A former partner at Ernst & Young in Paris, Marc Chaya has been part of the perfumer-manager duo that has led Maison Francis Kurkdjian since they founded it in 2009.

The acquisition by LVMH of a majority interest in Maison Francis Kurkdjian will allow the fragrance House to pursue its growth, in particular in international markets, fully respecting its distinctive character, uncompromising quality standards and creative freedom.

“We share the same spirit of creativity, excellence and entrepreneurial drive as the LVMH Group. This rapprochement is built on a shared vision and we will continue to guide the future of our House as part of an exceptional Group,” says Marc Chaya, co-founder of Maison Francis Kurkdjian.

Guerlain introduces Mon Guerlain its new women’s fragrance embodied by Angelina Jolie

Guerlain introduces Mon Guerlain its new women’s fragrance embodied by Angelina Jolie

 

Paris, 2017-Mar-06 — /EPR Retail News/ — Created for a strong, free and sensual woman, Mon Guerlain is Guerlain’s new fragrance, orchestrated by Guerlain Master Perfumer Thierry Wasser. Embodied by Angelina Jolie, the new fragrance is a tribute to Maison Guerlain’s unique savoir-faire, handed down from each generation of perfumers to the next.

Maison Guerlain has unveiled Mon Guerlain, the new women’s fragrance embodied by Angelina Jolie, an icon of modern, multi-faceted femininity. The new composition is the fruit of Guerlain Master Perfumer Thierry Wasser’s passion for exploration and exquisite craftsmanship. Each raw material in Mon Guerlain possesses an emotional dimension.

At the heart of the fragrance composition is Tahitensis vanilla – also present in Jicky, Shalimar and Habit Rouge – joined by lavender, Sambac jasmine and sandalwood.  Melding fresh and sensual feminine and masculine notes, this audacious accord gives Mon Guerlain its power and modernity.

The bottle for the new fragrance revisits the celebrated quadrilobe bottle, inspired by an alchemist’s flacon, designed by Gabriel Guerlain and crafted by Baccarat in 1908. The sleek and sober graphic lines celebrate a modern femininity, sincere and authentic.

Notes of a Woman, the Mon Guerlain advertising film, was shot in France’s Provence region with Terrence Malick and Angelina Jolie. The film recounts the story of how the fragrance was created, focusing the spotlight for the first time on the perfumer, a poetic and powerful illustration of the new fragrance and the Maison’s signature: Guerlain Parfumeur since 1828.

T Galleria by DFS launches exclusive collection “From Venice with Love” celebrating the most romantic city in the world

T Galleria by DFS launches exclusive collection “From Venice with Love” celebrating the most romantic city in the world

 

MACAU, 2017-Mar-02 — /EPR Retail News/ — T Galleria by DFS, the world’s leading luxury travel retailer, is proud to announce the launch of “From Venice with Love”, an exclusive collection of over 50 covetable products celebrating the most romantic city in the world, Venice, and our love of travel. Inspired by the colors of Italy and the opening of T Fondaco dei Tedeschi in Venice, DFS partnered with over 30 brands across the retailer’s five pillars of luxury to create the exclusive collection available in T Galleria and DFS stores worldwide beginning March 1. From the best of Italian fashion to fragrance to food, the collection features a range of international and Italian designers with standout pieces from Armani, Aquazzura, Gucci, Longines, Salvatore Ferragamo and Valentino.

“For centuries, Venice has inspired generations of craftsmen with its heritage of luxury. With the opening of our first European location at T Fondaco dei Tedeschi in Venice, we wanted to create a collection that epitomizes a sense of place and captures the essence of Italy for travelers visiting DFS locations all over the world,” said Sibylle Scherer, President Merchandising and Consumer Marketing, DFS Group.

Located on the Grand Canal, a few steps away from the famous Rialto Bridge and within walking distance from St. Mark’s Square, T Fondaco dei Tedeschi occupies one of the city’s most venerated buildings, the 800-year old Fondaco dei Tedeschi, which began its life as a place of exchange for northern merchants and was used for centuries to trade spices, silk and other goods between the Orient and Europe. Renowned for its curated collection of over 200 brands, the Alajmo family’s latest restaurant AMO and an Events Pavilion dedicated to showcasing Venice’s arts and culture, T Fondaco dei Tedeschi is a destination unto itself, encapsulating the spirit of Venice within its ancient walls.

The launch of “From Venice with Love” corresponds with the debut of T Galleria’s Spring 2017 campaign –  “Love of Travel” which follows British model Alex Libby and Hong Kong fashion blogger Cindy Ko as they embark on a journey of discovery through the maze of Venice’s streets and canals, all captured by British documentary photographer Tom Craig.

“This season we were inspired by travel and the way a place or experience shapes and changes you. Alex and Cindy bring that journey to life as they share their adventure of exploration, uncovering Venice’s beauty, art, architecture, music and people. Through Tom’s lens, we created a visual love affair with Venice, sharing with our customers that joy of discovering something for the first time and providing a new take on the Floating City,” said John Gerhardt, Senior Vice President Creative Branding Direction, DFS Group.

Throughout March, April and May, customers can immerse themselves in the campaign across DFS’ 17 airport and 18 downtown T Galleria stores as well as online and on DFS’ social media channels. Visitors to DFS.com will encounter a dedicated microsite that utilizes 360-degree video to transport viewers to hotspots around Venice, including the Peggy Guggenheim Museum, Harry’s Bar and T Fondaco dei Tedeschi. In stores, shoppers will discover window displays and photo opportunities that serve as jumping off points to their next journey as well as art installations and in store activations that bring the spirit of Venice to life.

All T Galleria and DFS stores will have dedicated pop-up spaces to showcase the “From Venice with Love” collection, allowing travelers to take home a piece of Italy no matter which DFS location they visit.

“Ultimately, both our campaign and collection speak to a value at the core of the DFS experience – that thrill of discovery and passion for travel,” added Scherer. “We’re confident travelers will love joining us for this new and exciting journey as they continue to make memories with DFS.”

Discover the exclusive “From Venice with Love” collection of great gifts and covetable pieces starting March 1 at T Galleria and DFS stores worldwide.

Guerlain announces Angelina Jolie as the face of its new fragrance for women

Guerlain announces Angelina Jolie as the face of its new fragrance for women

 

Paris, 2017-Jan-25 — /EPR Retail News/ — The new Guerlain fragrance for women, not yet released, already has a face: Angelina Jolie. The modern icon becomes the new muse of Guerlain Parfumeur, the beauty house founded in 1828.

“We create perfumes for the women we admire,” said Jacques Guerlain, creator of such mythic fragrances as L’Heure Bleue, Shalimar and Mitsouko. Thierry Wasser, Guerlain’s Master Perfumer since 2008, says that Angelina Jolie embodies such a woman, expressing different facets of modern femininity with choices, emotions and dreams. As the muse who inspired the creation of the new scent – which Guerlain will reveal in March of this year – Angelina Jolie has now lent her face to the fragrance.

Angelina Jolie is a filmmaker, Special envoy of the UN Refugee Agency and co-founder of the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative. She is donating her entire earnings from the campaign to charity.

Arita partners with Guerlain to celebrate its 400 years with limited edition of the iconic Mitsouko bottle

Arita partners with Guerlain to celebrate its 400 years with limited edition of the iconic Mitsouko bottle

 

Paris, 2017-Jan-10 — /EPR Retail News/ — Guerlain’s unique perfume-making savoir-faire meets the artisanal excellence of Arita Porcelain Lab in a stunning interpretation of the iconic Mitsouko perfume bottle. Crafted entirely by hand using traditional techniques, the bottle is decorated with symbols of good fortune, melding tradition and modernity.

Tradition and renewal come together to celebrate Mitsouko, the mythic perfume whose name means “mystery” in Japanese. Composed in 1919 by Jacques Guerlain, Mitsouko is known as “a masterpiece of balance”. The fragrance has remained as exceptional as ever over the years, emblematic of the timeless appeal that characterizes the chypre fragrance family.

World-renowned for its delicately ornate pieces, Arita is celebrating 400 years of ceramic creation this year by combining its savoir-faire with that of Maison Guerlain. To mark this anniversary, the Arita Porcelain Lab has designed a limited edition of the iconic Mitsouko bottle, crafted entirely by hand using traditional techniques that have been passed down over generations.

A flagship of Japan’s ceramic industry, the Arita workshop has decorated the Mitsouko bottle with auspicious symbols. They include the rising sun – traditionally equated with “clear skies” and good fortune – the paulownia to represent elegance, a plum tree, symbolizing life, the peony to ward off negative energy, and the chrysanthemum, representing longevity.

This collaboration between the perfumer and porcelain artisan is featured in an exhibition at the Guerlain boutique on the Champs Élysées, showcasing both the Mitsouko bottle and emblematic pieces from the Japanese porcelain workshop.

Guerlain launches collection of four eaux de parfum inspired by the four seasons

Guerlain launches collection of four eaux de parfum inspired by the four seasons
Guerlain launches collection of four eaux de parfum inspired by the four seasons

 

Paris, 2016-Nov-12 — /EPR Retail News/ — Guerlain has released an exceptional collection of four fragrances created by Thierry Wasser, Guerlain Master Perfumer. Each scent is inspired by a season and contained in a precious Quadrilobe bottle in Baccarat crystal and embellished by textile designer Janaïna Milheiro.

Guerlain presents a collection of four eaux de parfum inspired by the four seasons. Created by Master Perfumer Thierry Wasser and embellished by textile designer and fabric artisan Janaïna Milheiro, each fragrance encapsulates one of the seasons. A limited edition of just 20 signed and numbered bottles has been crafted for each season.

Janaïna Milheiro has decorated each precious bottle to better magnify the unique scent it contains. Her poetic jewels were made using a “feather beading” embroidery technique, creating an effect both majestic and airy.

Like a character from a Russian fairy tale, “L’Hiver” (winter) wears a coat of white feathers. The olfactory landscape is a woody musk. “Le Printemps” (spring) is a vibrant musky green floral with a garland of exuberantly colorful flowers encircling the bottle. A feather sun in honeyed tones embraces the bottle of “Été” (summer), a sunny floral fragrance. And finally, the feathers transform into a swirl of dead leaves before falling onto the bottle of “L’Automne” (autumn), a fresh woody fragrance.

The jewel-like bottles are decorated with a satin cord hand-tied by Guerlain’s “Dames de Table” artisans. The bottles are nestled in a stylish case decorated with Guerlain’s emblematic star.

001: Loewe launches its first fragrance under Jonathan Anderson

001: Loewe launches its first fragrance under Jonathan Anderson
001: Loewe launches its first fragrance under Jonathan Anderson

 

Paris, 2016-Oct-04 — /EPR Retail News/ — Loewe has launched 001, its first fragrance under Jonathan Anderson. Loewe’s creative director has imagined a scent in both “Woman” and “Man” versions, inspired by the idea of the morning after a first romantic encounter.

Loewe’s first fragrance under Jonathan Anderson, 001 is the sensory expression of the spirit the young Creative Director has brought to the House since his arrival in 2014, a subtle blend of fresh innovation and rich heritage. 001 is an invention that captures both the distinctive character of Loewe and the zeitgeist of the times.

“This is a very personal project for me. I spent a lot of time working on it because it’s something I really believe in. Above all, I wanted the fragrance to feel credible, an organic extension of what Loewe stands for today,” Jonathan Anderson explains.

Created in two versions, “Woman” and “Man”, 001 is inspired by the emotions of the early hours after a first intimate encounter between two people, a moment that leaves a scented memory on the skin, interpreting the notions of purity and uncertain promise. Loewe 001 “Woman” blends top notes of bergamot and tangerine with a heart note of sandalwood and hints of jasmine and vanilla in the base notes. The “Man” version has the same combination of scents with masculine undertones of cedar and musk. Both fragrances can be easily interchanged and mixed, like a mixed wardrobe that melds feminine and masculine codes.

Inspired by the photographic artwork of Karl Blossfeldt, whose botanical images were adapted as prints in Loewe’s Spring/Summer 2016 women’s ready-to-wear collection, Jonathan Anderson selected two images for the packaging of 001, beginning a new chapter in the creative story of the Maison.

Fresh steadily expands its footprint in Paris, now featured at Sephora store on the Champs Elysées

Fresh steadily expands its footprint in Paris, now featured at Sephora store on the Champs Elysées
Fresh steadily expands its footprint in Paris, now featured at Sephora store on the Champs Elysées

 

Paris, 2016-Sep-30 — /EPR Retail News/ — Fresh is consolidating its arrival in the European market. Already present in London, the American cosmetics house is steadily expanding its footprint in Paris. After setting up space in the Galeries Lafayette and Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche, Fresh is now featured at the Sephora store on the Champs Elysées.

Founded in the United States in 1991, Fresh initially grew in the U.S. before beginning its conquest of Asian markets. The brand has since 2015 been accelerating its international expansion in Europe, notably in France, launching several new retail spaces in Paris this year.

After opening a first counter in the Galeries Lafayette department store in late 2015, Fresh inaugurated a beauty space in Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche in summer 2016, joined since this fall by a pop-up space in the first floor Fashion department. Fresh invites shoppers to discover the House with a beauty diagnostic, as well as a workshop for personalized gifts thanks to custom-made accessories.

At the end of August, Fresh opened a space in the Sephora Champs-Elysées store and is also now present on the sephora.fr e-shopping site. The cosmetics brand figures prominently in the emblematic Sephora flagship with a podium presenting its skincare range, plus a series of events that give Parisiennes a chance to discover iconic Fresh products. The space has already proved a resounding success: excluding Sephora label products, Fresh cosmetics are among the top sellers at Sephora Champs Elysées in the skincare category!

The cosmetics brand is at the same time sharpening its online image, rolling out a French-language site in April, plus a French Facebook page, which went live over the summer.

Les Fontaines Parfumées: LVMH Group inaugurated a site dedicated to perfume creation shared by Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior

Les Fontaines Parfumées: LVMH Group inaugurated a site dedicated to perfume creation shared by Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior

 

Paris, 2016-Sep-18 — /EPR Retail News/ — On September 15 the LVMH Group inaugurated Les Fontaines Parfumées, a site dedicated to perfume creation shared by Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior. Situated in the heart of Grasse, the cradle of the global perfume industry, this estate will bring the best of French know-how in haute parfumerie to the entire world.

Dedicated entirely to perfume creation, Les Fontaines Parfumées was inaugurated by Bernard Arnault, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of LVMH, along with Maisons Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior. The two LVMH houses come together for the first time in a unique ecosystem that integrates every aspect of perfume-making savoir-faire, from flowers to flacons. The Master Perfumers of the two houses – François Demachy for Christian Dior and Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud for Louis Vuitton – return to their native region, where both grew up and learned the unique skills of an expert “nose”.

In establishing their creative atelier in Grasse, Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior are helping preserve the local flowers used to make perfume, ensuring exceptional fragrances while carrying on four centuries of Grasse heritage, inspired by both history and innovation. Grasse has always been synonymous with perfume excellence and is the only place in the world that brings together the singular expertise of flower growers, artisans and perfumers, who continually work together at each step in the creation of a perfume.

Nestled in a lush setting in the heart of the town, Les Fontaines Parfumées resonates with the identity of Grasse and its legacy as a hub of leather tanning that became the world’s perfume capital. The 300-hundred-year-old Bastide, which had fallen into disrepair since the 1970s, has been infused with a new life. This restoration has been anchored in authenticity, scrupulously respecting local savoir-faire, while resolutely connecting with 21st century modernity and innovation.

After four years of meticulous heritage research and a year of renovation work by local craftsmen and master artisans, Les Fontaines Parfumées has experienced a stunning renaissance. In addition to a state-of-the-art perfume laboratory and a former mill transformed into an olfactory training center, the Bastide boasts gardens with an unparalleled array of vegetation. There are over 350 different species of plants, including exceptional roses, thousands of tuberoses and 20 different kinds of mint, all potential sources of inspiration for François Demachy and Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud.

Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior have committed to long-term support for Grasse flower growers thanks to exclusive partnership agreements. Les Fontaines Parfumées will also be dedicated to passing on time-honored skills as the Master Perfumers welcome apprentices and train them.

“The inauguration of Les Fontaines Parfumées reflects our commitment to perpetuating our unique savoir-faire. By establishing this new maison dedicated to perfume in Grasse, LVMH is once again helping preserve and transmit exceptional skills, enabling them to resonate from their native regions,” said Bernard Arnault, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of LVMH.

I’m inviting women to enjoy a beautiful scent that represents my personal taste and imagination. By Invitation is what I’d call ‘love in a bottle,’” commented Bublé.  “It was an amazing experience, sharing my fragrance and story, with my fans and HSN customers,” Bublé noted about his time at HSN.

Described as “a floral oriental gourmand, encompassing the iconic flowers of love,” By Invitation is an elegant fine fragrance that’s enlightened with a fresh fruity accent.

Kenzo Parfums launches new feminine fragrance Kenzo World

Kenzo Parfums launches new feminine fragrance Kenzo World

 

Paris, 2016-Aug-31 — /EPR Retail News/ — Kenzo Parfums has unveiled Kenzo World, the first feminine fragrance conceived by Kenzo creative directors Carol Lim and Humberto Leon. The bursting energy of the two designers’ fashion vision infuses a sensual, dynamic and intoxicating scent.

In 2011, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, two young self-taught Americans, became creative directors of Kenzo. They quickly connected with the core identity of the house founded by Kenzo Takada in 1970, energizing it with fresh creativity, including now iconic motifs. Introduced for the 2013 fall-winter collection, the eye motif has become a symbol of the Kenzo universe. “We loved the interpretation of the eye really informing your world,” says Carol Lim.

Now this iconic eye symbol marks the new boldly feminine fragrance from the house, Kenzo World. Designed by Patrick Li, the bottle features black rubber, pink gold and opaline, recalling the mix-and-match of colors and materials that inspire the designers and their collections. The stylized eye is an invitation to experience Kenzo World, a world to be explored right from the name printed in Braille on top of the box.

The olfactory creation is signed by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, whose creative approach resonates with that of Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, a bold mixing of materials and styles to explore new directions. The flowery trail of Kenzo World is a surge of intoxicating, energetic scents that unfold in floral bursts, with notes of peony, Egyptian jasmine and Ambroxan®, a magical note that gives the fragrance voluptuous sensuality.

Carol Lim and Humberto Leon have created this fragrance for a Kenzo woman who is free, strong and bold, and whose boundless energy is translated in the advertising spot directed by Spike Jonze. Mixing choreography and performance, the clip follows Margaret Qualley on a frenetic and elegant escapade set to a soundtrack with a captivating tempo, showing off the masterful acting talents of the former dancer. The electric ambiance is a far cry from the standard genre of perfume ads, perfectly embodying the spirit of this new fragrance creation from Kenzo Parfums.

Since its beginnings in 1916, Acqua di Parma has called upon the most meticulous handcrafted excellence. All its products are crafted in small Italian ateliers, whose secrets and expertise have been passed down from generation to generation. Acqua di Parma artisans use rare essences, waxes, leathers, wood and refined metals to created fragrances, scented candles and sophisticated leather accessories.

To celebrate its first century of existence, Acqua di Parma naturally chose the city of Parma. This is where the House first came to life in 1916, in a small laboratory in the old village. Parma’s building facades inspired Acqua di Parma’s signature yellow color, and the town’s shield appears on the labels applied by hand on each product. To honor the intimate ties between the brand and the city, and its commitment to Italian art and culture, Acqua di Parma is celebrating its centennial via a rich artistic and cultural program.

Architecture, artworks, musical and theatrical venues were lit up for the festivities that animated the city in late May. Events and activities included a journey to the heart of craftsmanship in the workshops of the city, a stage performance at the Teatro Regio featuring the star dancer Roberto Bolle, and theater and lyrical performances at the Teatro Farnese to accompany the presentation of the book Essere Parma. Released by Acqua di Parma on the occasion of its anniversary, the book celebrates the atmosphere of Parma, with photos by world-renowned photographer Giovanni Gastel and text by the writer Antonella Boralevi.

Acqua di Parma also marked the hundred-year anniversary of Colonia, the first Italian cologne and a symbol of Italian elegance. While the formula of the iconic fragrance has remained unchanged for a century, its case has been revisited for the occasion. Colonia Centenary Edition is a limited edition designed by the Italian haute jewelry brand Damiano to evoke a stunning jewel. The House has crafted only one hundred examples of this exclusive design, reflecting one hundred years of savoir-faire that resonate with Acqua di Parma’s reputation today.

Abercrombie & Fitch launches new fragrance ‘First Instinct’

Diegem, Belgium, 2016-Jul-07 — /EPR Retail News/ — Abercrombie & Fitch is pleased to share its new fragrance ‘First Instinct’, developed exclusively with Inter Parfums.

Inspired by that first moment of attraction, when two people’s worlds collide and a spark is ignited, ‘First Instinct’ is the interpretation of that exciting first glance and the initial connection felt. That very moment can’t be defined in words, nor can it be anticipated.

The man who wears ‘First Instinct’ is naturally sexy, confident, and not afraid to express his deepest feelings. A rugged risk taker, he is sure to capture you with his energy and effortless charm. ‘First Instinct’ will transport the wearer and his partner back to that place when the chemistry was first felt, and their attraction first took hold.

With a base of amber and musk, Szechuan pepper in the mid- notes, and gin & tonic and melon to finish off the sensory experience in the top notes, ‘First Instinct’ is a modern masculine blend.

Rooted in Abercrombie & Fitch’s heritage, the package demonstrates an attention to detail. The clean bottle shape features a unique design element, in an undulated surface on the front and back, whilst the clear glass let’s the slate hue of the fragrance come through. The silver accents in the textured utilitarian metal cap and branded plate on one side of the bottle, give the packaging a strong style statement.
