THE

ICONS OF PERFUME

Exceptional, audacious and sophisticated; few things turn heads and hearts like the perfect fragrance. And few perfumes are as classic or timeless as Chanel No.5. From the simple, understated bottle to the famous jasmine scent, it is one of the world’s most recognisable and eternal perfumes. Created by Madame Chanel in 1921, its greatest fan was Marilyn Monroe. When asked by a reporter what she wore to bed during an interview in 1955, the actress simply answered ‘a few drops of No.5’. Pictured here putting on the perfume before the premiere of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof that same year, Miss Monroe hit upon what makes a timeless fragrance – it’s impossible to feel underdressed in the perfect scent.

PreciousPresent The art of gifting, as inspired by Christian Dior.

“It’s not how much we give,

but how much love we put into giving.” So said Mother Theresa, one

of the most giving people of the last two centuries and at a time such as Christmas, this is the most important sentiment one can remember. Even those of us less virtuous can put a lot of love into the art of gifting for Christmas 2013, whether it’s the thoughtfulness of the present, the gift of time given to someone who truly needs it, or, as is at the heart of the latest Dior campaign, the effort that is put into presenting your gift beautifully. When Christian Dior opened his Parisian boutique in 1947, he said “I

wanted every woman to be able to leave the boutique dressed by it from head to foot, even carrying a present in her hand.” Any woman who has received a little piece of luxury by way of the perfect perfume will know that part of its appeal is in the beauty of its box, the shape of the bottle, the way the ribbon has been tied. The Dior offering this Christmas is the epitome of great gifting. Embellished with a gold star - a symbol that relates to Dior’s own tale that when walking down the street prior to the opening of the couture house, he found a star which presently brought him success and glory over the years to come - it is the something special that makes a good present a great present.

WE TAKE A NOSTALGIC LOOK BACK AT THE PERFUME INDUSTRY AND CELEBRATE THE CLASSIC FRAGRANCES THAT HAVE STOOD THE TEST OF TIME.

he perfume industry as we know it today, began in the rolling hills of Grasse, France

- now regarded the Perfume Capital of the World. Here, you will find fields of jasmine and lavender and enough flowers that the globe’s greatest ‘noses’ have found 2,000 kinds of scent among them. It is the home of the oldest French perfumerie, which dates back to the 1700s and today there are over 27 tonnes of jasmine produced in the area each year. It’s hardly surprising, then, that some of the most iconic heritage fragrances are from French houses, each with their own unique link to the area. Take CHANEL’S iconic No5, created by Ernest Beaux, royal

perfumer and Grasse native which caused a sensation when it was released in 1921 and is still one of the best-selling perfumes today. Most of the classic French houses have used one of the legendary perfumers or ‘noses’ that have emerged from the town since the 17th century. One such legendary nose was master perfumer Edmond Roudnitska. Roudnitska carried out his training in perfumery in Grasse in 1926 and went on to create some of the most famous smells of the century, including DIOR’S Eau Sauvage and the very ﬁrst scent for Parisian house HÈRMES, Eau d’Hèrmes in 1951.

THE MODERN CLASSIC Newcomer and instant hit maker Thierry Mugler released his first fragrance, Angel in 1992. The perfume has notes of praline and chocolate with a patchouli accord and is housed in bottle shaped like a faceted star. It is regarded as one of the true modern classics and biggest successes in fragrance of the last 20 years.

One of the original pioneers of the red lip, it’s little wonder that high fashion house Dior is leading the fore for this season’s red lip revival. Their Christmas campaign is a wonderfully fitting Winter Goldenland and is full of vintage Hollywood glamour with an updated smokey eye and dark nail for some 21st century edge. Think Versaille on a cold winter’s night, illuminated in a halo of golden light and you’ll have the right idea. Hero product of the collection is the Diorific Perfumed Illuminating Powder (e70), which gives a light, reflective dusting of gilted glow - perfect for night time glamour.

More and more, it’s becoming clear that tailoring products to the speciﬁc areas and problems you want to treat is essential when it comes to ﬁnding the perfect routine.
