A CUTTING-EDGE SKINCARE COLLECTION

TARGETING VISIBLE EFFECTS OF MODERN FATIGUE

The new three-step ritual brings together Swiss glacial minerals, patented biotechnology,

and La Prairie’s Exclusive Cellular Complex™ to aid the skin barrier

and restore the look of healthy, resilient, and radiant complexions

La Prairie, the Swiss luxury skincare house renowned for elevating science to art, has unveiled Swiss Pristine, a new collection created for the realities of modern skin. Inspired by the purity of Switzerland’s ancient glaciers and powered by La Prairie’s most advanced cellular science, Swiss Pristine is designed to help repair and strengthen the skin barrier, revealing skin that looks calmer, smoother, more radiant, and more resilient. The collection launched September 1.

Today, skin is under constant pressure. Travel, pollution, lack of sleep, digital overload, environmental stressors, and the pace of modern life can all impact the skin’s ability to look and feel its best. These daily aggressors can disrupt the skin barrier, the outermost layer that helps protect against external stress, leaving the complexion vulnerable to visible signs of fatigue: fine lines, enlarged-looking pores, roughness, dullness, uneven tone, and redness.

Targeting a younger luxury consumer, Swiss Pristine answers this modern concern with a new barrier-focused, three-step ritual that fuses the purity of Swiss nature with breakthrough biotechnology. At the center of these products are a powerful trio of ingredients: Swiss Glacial Minerals, La Prairie’s patented HyPower LP52™, and the House’s iconic Exclusive Cellular Complex™

Sourced from Switzerland’s Valais Alps, Swiss Glacial Minerals are naturally rich in calcium, magnesium, and potassium, essential minerals known to support the skin barrier, hydration, and resilience. La Prairie preserves their purity through advanced encapsulation technology, allowing the minerals to release upon contact with the skin.HyPower LP52™ marks a new frontier in La Prairie’s biotechnology. Developed through joint research with HES-SO and ETH Zurich, this patented active ingredient is designed to help the skin better adapt to stress and maintain resilience in the face of modern aggressors.

The Exclusive Cellular Complex™, La Prairie’s signature innovation, completes the trio. Long prized for its repairing, protecting, and energizing properties, it helps support the skin’s natural renewal processes while enhancing overall resilience. Together, these ingredients power Swiss Pristine’s three-step ritual: Essence, Serum, and Cream.

The Swiss Pristine Essence is the first step in the ritual, preparing the skin to receive the full benefits of the collection. Lightweight, refreshing, and instantly absorbing, the Essence helps bring the complexion back into balance while delivering an immediate veil of hydration. Powered by Swiss multi-patented technology, it helps support the skin barrier from the very first step, creating the ideal foundation for the Serum and Cream to follow.

Swiss Pristine Serum is the collection’s precision treatment and the most targeted step in the ritual. Clinically proven to help repair and strengthen the skin barrier, the Serum addresses the six visible signs of stressed skin: fine lines, visible pores, redness, roughness, dullness, and uneven tone. Formulated with Swiss Glacial Minerals, HyPower LP52™, and La Prairie’s Exclusive Cellular Complex™, it helps restore resilience while visibly refining the complexion. Its lightweight texture melts instantly into the skin, leaving behind a smooth, luminous finish and a renewed sense of comfort.

The Swiss Pristine Cream completes the ritual by enveloping the skin in a calming, comforting layer of hydration. Lightweight yet replenishing, the Cream helps reinforce the skin barrier and support the skin’s natural ability to defend against daily stressors. With continued use, the complexion appears smoother, more even, more radiant, and more resilient. Designed as the final step in the Swiss Pristine ritual, it leaves skin feeling strengthened, soothed, and beautifully restored.

Every detail of Swiss Pristine reflects La Prairie’s vision of skincare as an art form. The formulas are airy, fluid, and instantly comforting, with a fresh, musky scent inspired by the purity of Swiss glaciers. The packaging introduces the Ice Crackled Lacquer finish, a one-of-a-kind decorative technique inspired by the movement and texture of glaciers. Each vessel features its own unique crackled pattern, transforming the collection into a series of individual objects of art.With Swiss Pristine, La Prairie reimagines barrier care for a new era of skin stress. The collection brings together the purity of Swiss glacial nature and the precision of advanced biotechnology to help restore what modern life takes from the skin: calm, balance, radiance, and resilience. The result is a complexion that looks renewed, strengthened, and visibly healthier.

COTY ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT WITH KERING FOR EARLY TRANSITION OF GUCCI BEAUTY LICENSE

 

  • Coty to receive approximately $400 million in consideration for the early termination plus sale of sufficient Gucci Beauty inventory to support the transition
  • Coty to continue operating Gucci Beauty through at least June 30, 2027
  • Proceeds expected to support debt paydown, reinvestment in Coty’s core prestige fragrance and beauty brands, and optimization of organizational set-up

 

Coty Inc. has announced it has entered into an agreement to transition the Gucci Beauty license back to Kering for a consideration of approximately $400 million. Under the terms of the agreement, Coty will continue to operate the Gucci Beauty brand through at least June 30, 2027, ending the license approximately one year ahead of the original license term.

 

Markus Strobel, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO of Coty, said: “This agreement delivers a favorable outcome to conclude the Gucci Beauty license, enabling Coty to redeploy capital and focus on our priority brands. It recognizes the substantial value created in Gucci Beauty under our stewardship and enhances our financial flexibility.”

 

As part of the agreement, Coty received $250 million in cash at signing and will receive an additional $150 million no later than September 30, 2027, of which up to $30 million is contingent on certain criteria. Coty has also agreed to sell to Kering an amount of Gucci Beauty inventory sufficient to support the transition. Coty estimates cash taxes of approximately $30 million in connection with this transaction.

 

The transaction proceeds will be used to support debt reduction, investment in its core prestige fragrance and beauty portfolio, and organizational optimization to reflect the new scope of the business.

 

Coty acquired the Gucci Beauty license in 2016, and has grown the business into a world-class fragrance and beauty operation with market-leading innovation and internationally recognized campaigns. Since 2019, Coty has grown Gucci Beauty revenues by more than 60%, underpinned by enduring global franchises including Gucci Flora, Bloom, Guilty, and Alchemist Garden.

 

In connection with the transaction, Coty and Kering have agreed to a mutual resolution of all pending litigation and related claims concerning the Gucci Beauty license, allowing the parties to focus on an orderly transition and their respective future strategic priorities.

There’s a side of Montauk that exists long after summer ends, one that’s quieter, moodier, and effortlessly cool. That atmosphere became the foundation for Montauk Man, the new fragrance house created by Andrew Rose after spending a winter on the edge of Long Island. Launching this month, the Eau de Parfum collection captures the feeling of intimate nights, ocean air, and understated luxury through scent.

Working alongside master perfumers Rodrigo Flores-Roux and Antoine Maisondieu of Givaudan, Rose developed four distinctive scents that feel refined, sensual, and deeply personal. From fresh and rich to dark and gourmand, each fragrance is designed with layered complexity and exceptional ingredients that linger beautifully on the skin. Montauk Man is modern masculinity bottled; confident, relaxed, and impossible to forget.

All scents share a common foundation: attention to balance, exceptional materials, and layered complexity. Together, they create a scent wardrobe for all occasions, seasons, and moods, to encapsulate the moments and the memories they’ll become.

Montauk Man Collection

Rough Riders

On the furthest stretch of land, a rugged spirit remains. Rough Riders echoes the heart and bravery of storied Americana. Named after Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders, this fragrance echoes the cavalry’s journey from Cuba as they sought haven in Montauk after the Spanish-American War. Bright pineapple, dark tobacco, and warm sandalwood create a scent of subtle strength and enduring spirit.

SRP: 90ML, $350

Twice Light

A double illumination of sky and sea, reflecting forces meet. Twice Light reveals nature’s divine expression and infinite glow. Bright and inviting, this fragrance blends bergamot, neroli, and orange flower into an airy harmony.

SRP: 90ML, $350

North Bar

On the northern edge of the coast, swells rise and fold with an unstoppable force. North Bar frames the sand and stone, with every crashing wave renewing the pull to go out again. North Bar is named for a hidden surf spot on the northern edge of the isle, not on any map and only for those who know. Saffron creates a luminous edge, while black leather and dark oud give this fragrance a profound, woody depth.

SRP: 90ML, $350

Amber Boom

Light and shadow blend, as dusk descends. Amber Boom ignites the spark from within, radiating with the afterglow of a golden haze. Capturing this fleeting luminescence, Amber Boom creates a seductive depth with notes of black cherry, rose, and tonka.

SRP: 90ML, $350

The Visionaries behind Montauk Man

Andrew Rose

Andrew Rose grew up spending his summers on the eastern end of Long Island, returning each year to a landscape that felt expansive and formative.

He learned to drive on Old Montauk Highway, worked seasons out east, and came to experience the region beyond its summer façade. As a teenager, he began collecting fragrances, drawn to their ability to hold memory, evolve over time, and preserve emotion in a way language often cannot. That early fascination became a lifelong pursuit.

After spending a winter living in Montauk and experiencing it at its most raw and quiet, Rose created Montauk Man to translate the intensity of the place into fragrance, capturing its contrast of solitude, beauty, and edge.

 

 

Rodrigo Flores-Roux

Rodrigo Flores-Roux is a Senior Perfumer and Vice President of Fragrance Creation at Givaudan. Trained at ISIPCA in Versailles, he has created modern icons for Tom Ford, Clinique, John Varvatos, Dolce & Gabbana, and Calvin Klein, earning multiple FiFi Awards and induction into the Fragrance Foundation Hall of Fame. Known for his clarity, sensuality, and architectural balance, Rodrigo developed North Bar, Amber Boom, and Twice Light for Montauk Man. Working closely with founder Andrew Rose through immersive time in Montauk, he translated the brand’s vision into compositions that are refined, expressive, and enduring.

 

 

 

Antoine Maisondieu

Antoine Maisondieu is a Senior Perfumer at Givaudan, trained at the Roure perfumery school in France. His portfolio includes acclaimed fragrances for Giorgio Armani, Tom Ford, Prada, and Burberry, and he is widely respected for his mastery of natural materials and modern structure.
After spending immersive time in Montauk with Andrew and his family, Antoine composed Rough Riders—a fragrance defined by depth, character, and quiet strength. His work brings dimension and gravitas to the Montauk Man collection.

 

 

 

The Montauk Man debut collection is officially available HERE and in-store at Violet Grey East Hampton and Wyld Blue Montauk.

Chantecaille, the luxury beauty house renowned for uniting advanced botanical science with effortless artistry, proudly unveils its latest complexion innovation: Bio Lifting Concealer. Launched June 1, 2026, the new skincare-infused concealer brings together high-performance coverage, a blurred light-diffusing finish, and a powerful peptide complex designed to visibly smooth, lift, and refresh the delicate under-eye area.

Available in 21 shades, Bio Lifting Concealer is a medium, buildable creamy concealer created to deliver seamless, natural-looking coverage while caring for the skin beneath. The formula is clinically tested to immediately reduce the look of wrinkle depth by up to 41%* and to reduce the look of wrinkles by up to 59% after eight weeks.* Designed to soften the appearance of fine lines, improve the look of skin texture, and enhance hydration, Bio Lifting Concealer represents a new approach to complexion: one where makeup performs with the intelligence of skincare.

Infused with a smoothing, lifting peptide complex, the formula helps improve the appearance of wrinkles while creating a soft-focus, light-diffusing effect on the skin. Gentiana Lutea Extract helps reduce the appearance of puffiness under the eyes and visibly firms the skin, while Persian Silk Tree Extract helps improve the look of dark circles and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Together, this advanced trio works to refresh and refine the under-eye area, creating a brighter, smoother, more awakened appearance.

The creamy texture glides effortlessly onto the skin, delivering controlled coverage that feels nourishing, flexible, and weightless. Immediately after application, skin appears 13% smoother and receives a 64% boost in hydration.* With daily use, Bio Lifting Concealer continues to improve the look of wrinkles, skin texture, and hydration, offering instant beautifying results as well as visible skincare benefits over time.

Designed to pair effortlessly with Chantecaille’s award-winning Future Skin Gel Foundation, Bio Lifting Concealer expands the house’s complexion ritual with a formula that enhances the skin rather than masking it. The finish is softly blurred and naturally luminous, allowing the complexion to appear fresh, refined, and perfected without heaviness.

For the most precise application, Bio Lifting Concealer pairs with the Blend and Conceal Brush, a tool designed to deliver smooth, controlled coverage with a soft, flexible touch that adapts to facial contours. Its elongated, tapered tip reaches the small, targeted under-eye area, while the contoured body supports both dotting and sweeping application. The sleek surface picks up and releases product evenly for seamless blending, less waste, and a refined application experience.

Bio Lifting Concealer is cyclic silicone free, microplastic free, fragrance free, phthalate free, paraben free, gluten free, and vegan, reflecting Chantecaille’s commitment to creating high-performance beauty with a modern, thoughtful formulation approach.

This new chapter in Chantecaille complexion reaffirms the house’s belief that true beauty innovation lies in the harmony between visible results, sensorial elegance, and skin-supporting care. With Bio Lifting Concealer, coverage becomes more than correction. It becomes a daily ritual of smoothing, lifting, hydrating, and illuminating the skin.

The concealer is available at chantecaille.com and retails for $68 USD.

 

*Individual results may vary. Based on a clinical study of 44 women. Tests performed after 30 minutes, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks of using Bio Lifting Concealer daily.

**Tests performed on ingredients.

The Estée Lauder Companies announced a minority investment in 111SKIN, a luxury clinical skin care brand founded by renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Yannis Alexandrides. Terms of the investment were not disclosed.

Founded in 2012, 111SKIN was originally developed by Dr. Alexandrides to accelerate his patients’ healing time following procedures. At the heart of the brand is its innovative NAC Y2™, a pioneering complex designed to support skin repair and maintain a healthy, radiant and resilient complexion. Building on the foundation of this clinical expertise, 111SKIN has developed a portfolio of more than 30 products, anchored by its Black Diamond and Reparative collections and priced from $50 to $1,000.

“Skin care is entering a new phase, shaped by the convergence of procedures, longevity and beauty, as consumers increasingly seek products that deliver visible, treatment-inspired results,” said Stéphane de La Faverie, President and Chief Executive Officer, The Estée Lauder Companies. “111SKIN exemplifies this shift, translating Dr. Alexandrides’ more than 35 years of surgical and aesthetic treatment experience into high-performance luxury skin care inspired by in-clinic treatments and built on clinical insight, next-generation actives, powerful formulas and proven efficacy. This investment, grounded in consumer-centricity and transformative innovation, reflects our Beauty Reimagined vision and underscores the significant opportunity we see to support the brand’s continued growth – expanding its global reach while preserving the distinctive approach that has made it so relevant with today’s consumers.”

111SKIN is a luxury clinical skin care brand, operating in a fast-growing segment where medical expertise and powerful high-performance formulations are increasingly shaping consumer demand. The brand distributes through luxury retail, e-commerce and high-end spa channels – including Harrods, Bluemercury, Nordstrom, Mandarin Oriental, and Aman – and has a robust direct-to-consumer business representing approximately 20% of sales, reflecting strong digital engagement with prestige consumers. The brand has a diversified global footprint, with North America representing approximately 40% of 2025 sales, and an established presence across China, the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia Pacific.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with The Estée Lauder Companies and to unlock an exciting new chapter for 111SKIN,” said Dr. Yannis and Eva Alexandrides, co-founders of 111SKIN. “We look forward to building on our momentum and driving future growth together,” added CEO Vanessa Goddevrind.

Dr. Alexandrides will remain actively involved in the brand and will continue to lead 111SKIN alongside its experienced management team.

This investment aligns with The Estée Lauder Companies’ continued focus on science-driven innovation, as 111SKIN’s advanced NAC Y2™ technology and commitment to clinical-led product development reflect consumers’ growing preference for high-performance and preventative skin care.

AMBRE LEVANT: THE RADIANCE OF THE GOLDEN HOUR

 

There exists a moment when the world takes on a profound intensity, when the sun begins its descent and the sky turns to amber just before surrendering to the night. In that captivating golden hour, the sky retains the warmth of the day while its memory lingers in the air.

From one horizon to the other, this light envelops the landscape, erasing distances. Such radiance exerts a singular power of attraction. Gradually, the world seems transformed by a new energy as the first stirrings of evening take shape. Everything quickens and intensifies, as if carried by a single impulse. Ambre Levant is born of the instant when amber light rises, uniting sky and earth with its colour.

 

The Precious Alliance of Amber and Oud

With the precision and generosity that define his style, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud imagines a composition that captures an instant and expresses its full intensity. The Master Perfumer signs a fragrance with a thousand nuances, worked like a burst of golden radiance that unfurls to reveal all its richness. This creation is anchored in the union of two emblematic raw materials — amber and oud — brought together in an interpretation of striking modernity. “Amber has been with me since the very beginning and has always held the same fascination for me. As a child, it was one of the first notes I discovered in my father’s laboratory.  It has guided my work ever since.” Here, he embraces amber in all its dimensions: the richness of a resinous amber, allied with the contemporary tonalities of ambergris, with its saline tones and profoundly human animality. From this union emerges a creation in which the ancestral traditions of perfume and its most contemporary language speak to one another, revealing a new radiance.

 

The Master Perfumer began with a luscious mandarin, whose ripe freshness brings a gourmand brightness to the skin. Its fruity accents call forth a breath of warm spices: effusive cardamom, luminous cinnamon, an intriguing note of white pepper, and a touch of saffron to intensify warmth. Together, they lend the composition its beguiling tension and a gentle evocation of Eastern indulgences. Then the amber notes unfold in full, with the resinous warmth of labdanum, the purity of white incense, and the mineral vibration of a contemporary ambergris giving the accord its captivating radiance. The alliance is then sealed with an exceptional essence of oud, sourced in Bangladesh from a supply exclusive to Louis Vuitton. This ‘black gold’, an emblematic treasure of Middle Eastern perfumery, multiplies tenfold the composition’s depth and intensity. For Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, it is among the most sensual woods that exist: “This one is unique, of exceptional quality. Its woody character, of rare refinement, reveals a very subtle animality and an elegance that is at once spicy and ambered.” The absolute amber signature, Ambre Levant draws out the light of the golden hour and extends its radiance onto the skin.

 

The Flacon

The iconic Louis Vuitton flacon, rendered in transparent black glass, here takes on a deep, warm amber hue. The radiance of the golden hour seems to emanate from within the glass itself. This flacon may be refilled at stores equipped with a perfume fountain.

 

Louis Vuitton’s Exceptional Oud

In the northeast of Bangladesh, in the misty, tropical region of Sylhet, oud forms in the heart of aquilaria forests, behind curtains of mangrove that filter out the light. There, over the course of many long years, a natural infection is triggered, giving rise to a dark and precious resin  that  artisans extract with remarkable precision and skill. Each tree is harvested at a rhythm that respects biodiversity and preserves the balance of the forest. It is at the heart of this region that Louis Vuitton has forged an exclusive partnership with a family that has preserved this savoir-faire for 200 years. This supply chain cultivates the luxury of time. It takes no less than 30 years for the resin to develop its full aromatic complexity and richness. The family allows the trees time to reach that degree of maturity — a rare patience that endows the material with exceptional quality. This deliberately rarefied production offers the Maison an oud whose clarity and refinement make it a precious ingredient, far removed from the saturated clichés that surround it. For Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, oud is bound to a formative memory: he first encountered its emanations as a young apprentice — an olfactory shock that marked the beginning of a fascination that has endured ever since. This quest led him to lands where oud is tended, harvested and distilled as a living heritage. A single drop is enough to conjure a distant horizon. In Louis Vuitton creations, this oud reveals a majestic, profound and contemporary elegance. At once a botanical treasure and a cultural patrimony, it constitutes for the Maison material for the future, capable of inspiring new modes of expression while preserving a precious heritage.

 

Eau de parfum Ambre Levant 100ml – $440

Just in time for Earth Day*, discover a luminous green escape — refined and quietly glamorously inspired by a Gatsby-esque village where elegance meets untamed woodland air and true luxury is found in nature…Introducing Bond No 9’s Tuxedo Park.

THE INSPIRATION

Nestled in the Ramapo Mountains just north of Manhattan, Tuxedo Park is one of New York’s most storied enclaves—the first planned residential community where Gilded Age ambition meets pastoral retreat.

Founded in 1885 by tobacco heir Pierre Lorillard IV, the village was conceived as a private, gated haven for New York’s elite, blending European aristocratic ideals with distinctly American grandeur and classical, opulent architecture.

Its rolling hills, pristine lakes, and winding carriage paths were carefully constructed and preserved as a living landscape of leisure. “We didn’t just choose any park,” says Bond No.9 Founder Laurice Rahmé. “Tuxedo Park is the embodiment of quiet, outdoor chic and has an incredible New York heritage.”

From inception, Tuxedo Park became synonymous with high society. The Astors, Vanderbilts, Morgans, and Whitneys were among its celebrated residents and guests who traveled from their NYC mansions to their holiday estates, while cultural figures such as Mark Twain and Oscar Wilde passed through its gates. Emily Post wrote her iconic 1922 tome Etiquette based on the formal manners she observed while growing up there.

The community’s social calendar, which centered around the village’s exclusive Tuxedo Club, was legendary and crowned by the iconic Autumn Ball—a glittering affair that drew the era’s tastemakers for nights of music, dancing, and sartorial spectacle. It was at one such ball in the 1880s that the modern tuxedo (inspired by the stylish Prince of Wales) is said to have made its American debut—an innovation that quickly spread from Tuxedo Park’s ballrooms to New York society and beyond—forever linking the village’s name to the global symbol of black-tie elegance.

Launching in the spirit of Earth Day* 2026, Tuxedo Park is a tribute to protected beauty, mindful luxury, and the reminder that the most modern indulgence is harmony with nature.

 

THE COMPOSITION

 

Like an olfactory stroll through an outdoor fête, Tuxedo Park opens with a radiant citrus medley. At the top, mandarin, bitter orange, and white grapefruit to deliver a clean, bracing brightness, joined by fresh basil for a layered expression of herbaceous zest.

The heart evokes manicured gardens bursting with luscious flowers: extravagant jasmine, heady tuberose, and grounding, earthy ylang orris. At the base, a solar oud accord adds an effervescent pop, echoing the champagne sparkle of legendary Autumn Balls and giving the florals an effortless, celebratory glow. Musk and amber anchor the composition in tailored depth for a sensual, forest-floor finish that lingers like filtered sunlight through trees.

 

THE PACKAGING

 

The fragrance is housed in a clear, bright green glass bottle—a reflection of its botanical soul—and imprinted with a gilded logo impression. The vivid yet transparent hue recalls fresh spring leaves and the reflective surfaces of Tuxedo Park’s lakes. Minimalist detailing allows the color and clarity of the glass to take center stage, turning the bottle into a modern totem of nature-meets-design.

 

SUSTAINABILITY

Responsible packaging is a pillar of Bond No. 9, and we strive to offer consumers the option to choose without having to compromise on luxury.

Bond No. 9’s iconic Silhouette Bottle is 100% recyclable and uses 50% recycled cullet during the manufacturing process.

The emblematic Dior “Saddle” bag that has stood the test of time with such elegance, inspired Francis Kurkdjian to create a fragrance that conveys the audacious style of this icon. “Cuir Saddle” is an unprecedented fragrance. It reveals a leather floral composition that is contemporary and unexpected — a sensual perfume to be worn like a second skin.

The immediately recognizable sensual and smoky leather accord is, in Cuir Saddle, tinged with new, soft and luminous floral facets. A velvety touch of suede gives the Cuir Saddle fragrance instant modern appeal. This supple and cool leather perfume wears a smile.

“So I wanted to create a trompe-l’oeil leather perfume that seemed “classic” in its charred smoky and woody accord, but which ended up surprising and delighting the senses through a touch of lightness that was completely unexpected. I wanted to move away from the connotations of heavy leather accords by modernizing their animal sensuality with an overdose of light. Smoky and woody notes are of course present, but they seem suffused with noble floral and musky notes. Cuir Saddle adds an unprecedented sensory facet to this traditional family. Its allure corresponds to the new Dior codes, in a fine leather accord that blossoms to melt into the skin like a sensual embrace.” Francis Kurkdjian, Perfume Creation Director
