But the Boulevard Saint-Germain-based brand is making the relationship official this season by “scenting” a number of designers’ shows. The [...]

People who typically wear rose fragrances don’t just like the flower’s sweet aroma; more often than not, they are obsessed with it. And it’s obsession, intermingled with a bit of fatal attraction, that has inspired Diptyque’s latest tangle with the storied bloom. Its new Rosa Mundi collection takes its name from the beautiful Rosamund Clifford, [...]

You may associate Fujifilm with cameras, but the Japanese brand has its sights set on skincare domination. Astalift, its antiaging line, has become a bona fide hit since launching domestically in 2007, and after a successful expansion into China last year, the company has orchestrated distribution deals in France, Germany, and Spain.

Despite the enviable genes that destined her for runway superstardom, Georgia May Jagger—the youngest daughter of Jerry Hall and Mick Jagger—didn’t start modeling until the ripe old age of 17. It didn’t take her long to transcend the ranks of the rag trade, though: Her first year in, Jagger nabbed spreads in British, French, Italian, [...]

Diptyque has taken us on many fragrant journeys; last year’s scented bodycare collection evoked the floral fields and sunny breezes of Grasse, Carthage, and Corinth. This summer, the Paris perfume house has the Greek isles and the southern tip of Italy on the brain. Among its new offerings is the amber-hued Revitalizing Shower Gel for [...]
