 The Estée Lauder Companies under the High Patronage of Mr. Emmanuel Macron, President of the French Republic, announced the opening of its Fragrance Atelier within its new La Maison des Parfums on Rue Volney in Paris. This newly established global innovation hub is fully dedicated to world-class fragrance expertise, advanced technologies and cutting-edge capabilities, and will accelerate the company’s strategic ambitions in luxury and prestige fragrances. Rooted in the legacy of Mrs. Estée Lauder’s pioneering vision and her lifelong passion for fragrance, the Atelier’s opening marks a significant milestone in the company’s longstanding commitment to fragrance excellence and craftsmanship.

The Exterior of La Maison des Parfums

“It is with great pride and excitement that we open our Fragrance Atelier in Paris,” said Stéphane de La Faverie, President and Chief Executive Officer, The Estée Lauder Companies. “Building on our incredible heritage of creativity and innovation, the Atelier will propel our future growth in this dynamic category — uniting world-class expertise, cutting-edge technology, and the artistry of fragrance to accelerate innovation across our portfolio. Located in the cradle of perfumery, our teams will blend state-of-the-art technology, data-driven intelligence, and olfactive expertise to craft the next generation of extraordinary scents for our consumers worldwide.”

“The Fragrance Atelier is an exciting new model for creation — a space that harnesses creativity and science to shape the future of fragrance,” said René Lammers, The Estée Lauder Companies’ Chief Research & Innovation Officer. “This hub brings together experts from across our fragrance brands and partners in an environment purpose-built for experimentation. Together, they will accelerate the journey from inspiration to formulation and ultimately to the final consumer experience.”

A Bold Addition to The Estée Lauder Companies’ Innovation Network

The Atelier further enhances The Estée Lauder Companies’ global research and innovation network across the United States (New York and Minnesota), China (Shanghai), Europe (Belgium), and Canada (Toronto). Together, these sites seamlessly integrate category- and region-specific strengths to drive breakthrough discovery across the full spectrum of beauty. The Atelier introduces an AI-enabled, end-to-end creation process that combines olfactive and neuroscience modeling with real-time monitoring of patents, research, and regulations. These resources will accelerate discovery, develop new technologies, fuel experimentation, and enable faster response to evolving consumer trends, reducing fragrance development lead times by up to 30–50% in the coming years.

A Transformative Space Custom Built for Fragrance Innovation

Inside the Atelier, specialized co-creation and innovation spaces bring artistry and science to life. In the Music Room, perfumers from leading fragrance houses and brand teams collaborate to compose signature accords and explore new olfactive territories. In the adjoining laboratories, experts use CO₂ supercritical extraction, GCMS molecule analysis, and AI-driven sillage measurement to understand fragrance structure and longevity at the molecular level. Proprietary neuroscience-based consumer modeling transforms sensory data into insight, helping creators design fragrances that stir emotion and inspire desire.

Serving as a shared innovation engine for all fragrance brands within the company’s portfolio, the Atelier accelerates collaboration and discovery across Jo Malone London, TOM FORD, Le Labo, KILIAN PARIS, and Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle, as well as across Estée Lauder, Clinique, AERIN Beauty, Aramis, and BALMAIN Beauty fragrances. Each brand retains its distinctive voice while drawing on shared access to next-generation technology, proprietary ingredients, and scientific expertise.

Located in the heart of Paris, La Maison des Parfums unites the company’s fragrance, creative, and innovation teams within a five-story, 2,000-square-meter space that blends French craftsmanship with modern design. Its architecture evokes the composition of a fragrance — travertine as the base, artisanal details as the heart, and light-infused finishes as the top note — creating an immersive environment where heritage and innovation coexist in harmony.

Deepening The Estée Lauder Companies’ Commitment to France

The Atelier’s opening underscores The Estée Lauder Companies’ enduring commitment to France, a country whose strong culture of innovation and investment continues to make it a vital strategic market and creative hub for the company. The company’s presence in France spans nearly six decades, beginning with its first French office in 1966. Today, Paris serves as the location for the company’s EUKEM regional headquarters, a newly created geographic cluster encompassing Europe, the United Kingdom and Ireland, and emerging markets in Asia, Africa and the Middle East, as well as the headquarters of the company’s French sales affiliate.

The Estée Lauder Companies employs more than 1,200 people in France and proudly operates the global headquarters of several of its brands there, including KILIAN PARIS, Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle, Darphin Paris, and Lab Series. The establishment of La Maison des Parfums and the Fragrance Atelier builds on this foundation, further connecting the company to France’s world-renowned ecosystem of perfumers, suppliers, and creative talent.

“We are extremely proud that The Estée Lauder Companies has chosen France as the location for its new Fragrance Atelier — an innovative project announced at the most recent Choose France summit,” said Pascal Cagni, French Ambassador for International Investments and Chairman of the Board of Business France. “Their choice demonstrates the confidence that international leaders have in French excellence, which is driven by a unique ecosystem of creative talent, innovation, and globally recognized expertise. The French perfume and cosmetics industry, with more than €30 billion in revenue, is a key driver of growth and attractiveness. The Estée Lauder Companies’ Fragrance Atelier is a perfect demonstration of France’s ability to offer companies an environment conducive to the development of their most ambitious projects. I commend the remarkable work of the Business France teams which enables France to remain at the forefront of the global perfume industry.”

CEW, the premier organization for beauty industry executives, will be led by Drell Szyfer, who for the past 10 years has served on CEW’s Board of Governors. Recently, she was instrumental in building out CEW’s three-year strategic plan — in a consultancy role — that will be instituted in the new year. A deeper focus on professional development, community building, and unique programming will take center stage.

“My time on the Board, on the membership committee, and most recently as a strategy development partner has given me exposure to this strong and mighty team. With the industry evolving at such a rapid pace, and so much opportunity across beauty, health, and wellness today, the opportunity for on-going professional development and learning has never been greater. I am excited to partner with the CEW leadership team to build an ever bigger, stronger, more diverse and connected community,” Drell Szyfer said.

The former CEW Achiever Award Honoree has a proven track record in the beauty industry and brings a wealth of expertise in business strategy and growth. Most recently she was the CEO of RéVive Skincare. Prior, she ran Laura Geller Beauty and spent nearly two decades across global beauty giants L’Oréal, Avon, and The Estée Lauder Cos.

As President, she will oversee all areas of the organization, focusing on CEW’s market position and growth. Her strategic acumen and deep understanding of the beauty industry will be instrumental in propelling the organization into the future.

Jacobson said of the news, “Elana’s leadership, empathy, and vision give me enormous hope for what lies ahead. I admire her forward-thinking abilities, and I am honored to work closely with her to continue advancing our organization.”

“CEW has played a pivotal role in my career, connecting me to industry leaders and fostering deep and enduring relationships,” says Drell Szyfer. “It celebrates the accomplishments of women in the industry and champions their careers at all stages with its professional development offerings and vibrant community. What Carlotta and the team have built is iconic and I am honored to continue its legacy.”

David Greenberg will be appointed to the role of Chairman of L’Oréal USA.  In this newly created and highly strategic role, he will represent the Group with key institutional stakeholders – to drive its reputation and ensure its license to operate in its largest global market.

A veteran of the Group, with over 32 years’ service, David has held a range of leadership roles across various divisions, brands, and functions, becoming one of the architects of L’Oréal’s rise to undisputed market leadership in the U.S.  Under his leadership, the USA became the Group’s number one growth driver for three consecutive years, with L’Oreal Luxe becoming number 1 in the USA and the North America Zone crossing the symbolic €10 Bn sales mark for the first time in 2022.

He was also instrumental in accelerating and transforming the Group’s Professional Products Division in North America, he played a critical role in the identification, integration, and global expansion of successful American brands like NYX Professional Makeup, Essie, Matrix and most recently ColorWow.  David also oversaw a number of significant projects for the Group in the US; most recently, the inauguration of the new €140M research centre in Clark, N.J., the renovation of the NYC headquarters and the opening of new corporate offices in El Segundo California.

Commenting on this appointment, Nicolas Hieronimus – CEO of L’Oréal Group explains, “David’s transformative leadership as CEO of L’Oréal USA and President of North America, has been truly exceptional, marked by outstanding business results, a keen eye for emerging trends and a passion for his people.  This newly created role of Chairman of L’Oréal USA underscores the strategic importance of the US market for our future growth.  David is uniquely positioned to take on this role, having consistently reinforced our beauty industry leadership, through engaging with key Public Affairs stakeholders and his recent tenure as Board Chair of PCPC.

 

Alexis Perakis-Valat will be appointed CEO of L’Oréal USA and President, North America, succeeding David Greenberg.

Currently President – Consumer Products Division, Alexis has been a major contributor to L’Oréal’s global success.  Since joining L’Oréal in 1994, he has held a number of key leadership positions in strategically important markets, including France, Spain, Germany and China – where, as Country Manager he doubled the business and led its digital and e-commerce transformation.  He then joined the Executive Committee in 2013, as President for Asia Pacific, while still managing China.

Since assuming his current role in 2016, he has significantly transformed the Consumer Products Division, leading the Division’s drive to democratize the best of beauty to consumers around the world.  Now touching more than one billion consumers globally, the Division has seen remarkable growth under his leadership; with an increase in sales from €12 Bn to €16 Bn, whilst simultaneously boosting profitability and increasing brand investment.

Over the past 9 years, he has transformed the Division into a true global powerhouse by sharpening the equity and improving the performance of the Division’s four global brands while initiating new growth relays like Mixa in Europe, or the Korean makeup brand 3CE in Asia – and was one of the driving forces behind the recent acquisition of Dr G.  He has also been responsible for unlocking the untapped potential of Emerging Markets, resulting in high double-digit acceleration in these regions over the past four years.

Nicolas Hieronimus added, “Alexis’s career is a testament to transformative leadership and strategic acumen. Since 2016, his vision and drive have fundamentally reshaped our Consumer Products Division, democratising beauty, accelerating growth, and igniting double-digit acceleration in Emerging Markets.  His unwavering commitment to brand equity, innovation, and sales and marketing excellence, makes him the perfect choice to lead the L’Oréal USA and North America business to new heights.”

Fabrice Megarbane will be appointed President of the Consumer Products Division, succeeding Alexis Perakis-Valat.

Fabrice, currently Chief Global Growth Officer, has a distinguished 24-year career at L’Oréal, marked by extraordinary leadership and strategic vision across diverse markets and divisions, including transformative leadership as CEO of L’Oréal China and President – North Asia Zone.

Fabrice was appointed to the role of Chief Global Growth Officer in January 2024, where he has been instrumental in shaping L’Oréal’s future growth trajectory.  In this critical function, he has brilliantly strategized growth, and fostered a more integrated, multi-Zone approach across the Group, including driving significant e-commerce expansion with key platforms like Amazon and TikTok.  He has also spearheaded several of the Group’s key transformation projects, helping drive agility, optimise the Group’s ways of working and ensure the company is ‘future fit’.

In his previous role, L’Oréal China not only achieved record market share, but also doubled sales, growing market share by an average of one percentage point per year.  He also positioned the region at the forefront of digital and data excellence, mastering the complexities of modern consumer engagement, and ensured all industrial sites achieved carbon neutrality by 2022.

Commenting on this appointment, Nicolas Hieronimus said, “Fabrice’s unique blend of strategic insight, deep market knowledge, and exceptional leadership qualities, proven during his transformative tenure in China and most recently as Chief Global Growth Officer, makes him the ideal choice to lead our Consumer Products Division. I am confident that he will continue to drive innovation, accelerate growth, and inspire our teams in this new chapter.

 

Vianney Derville will be appointed to the role of Chief Growth Officer, succeeding Fabrice Megarbane.

Most recently President of Europe, Vianney is a distinguished leader renowned for orchestrating profound transformations, driving exceptional growth, and fostering strategic market leadership. In this new global role, he will leverage his extensive experience in-market experience, strategic vision, and his proven ability to inspire teams to accelerate L’Oréal’s future growth trajectory.

Vianney was appointed President – Europe Zone in 2016, following a long and highly successful career, with leadership roles in Japan, Spain, France and the US.  Throughout his tenure, his strategic vision has led to a profound transformation of the European zone, which has paved the way for outstanding business results.  Last year, sales in the region reached over €11.4 Bn in sales; with Europe being the largest contributor to the Group’s overall growth, despite being the Group’s oldest, and most established region.  The Europe zone has also consistently gained market share and demonstrated strong online dominance.

Recognizing the increasingly complex European regulatory landscape, Vianney also spearheaded the significant empowerment of Public Affairs within the region, a critical move to proactively engage with stakeholders and safeguard L’Oréal’s ‘license to operate’ in key markets.

Nicolas Hieronimus added: “Vianney’s deep understanding of our markets, his proven track record of driving significant growth and transformation, coupled with his exceptional ability to unite and inspire teams make him the perfect choice to be our new Chief Growth Officer.  I look forward to working with him closely as we shape L’Oréal’s future growth trajectory, continue the “One L’Oreal” transformation project leveraging AI and write the next chapter of the Group’s history.”

 

Emmanuel Goulin will be appointed President of Europe, succeeding Vianney Derville.

Emmanuel, currently President – Travel Retail, is a distinguished leader with an impressive business track record and a major transformational impact.  Known for his direct, approachable, and efficient leadership, a forward-looking vision, and a strong commitment to transformation, he is ideally positioned to lead the Group’s largest region.

In his current role, Emmanuel has been instrumental in navigating a period of stabilization and profound transformation for our business in the new post-Covid reality.  Most notably, he has led the reinvention of the ‘beauty experience’ in Travel Retail; successfully refocusing our activities on airports and around the traveller’s journey.  He has also driven a crucial transformation of the Travel Retail organization and optimised the Group’s operational footprint, to ensure agility and efficiency in a rapidly changing environment.

Joining the group in 2000, his international career has seen him take on diverse roles, including leadership roles in Japan, Hong Kong, the UK and France.  Returning to Europe in 2022, he served as General Manager for L’Oréal Italy, where he brought new momentum to the subsidiary, creating the conditions for double digit growth and delivering significant progress in sustainable development.

 

Commenting on this appointment, Nicolas Hieronimus said, Emmanuel has a deep understanding of the European landscape, forged through leadership roles in three of its key markets.  This, together with his great track record of delivering major business and transformational impact, positions him as the ideal leader to drive innovation, accelerate growth and inspire our teams in our biggest region.”

 

Eva Yu will be appointed to the role of President Travel Retail, succeeding Emmanuel Goulin, and will join the Group’s Extended Executive Committee.

In this role, Eva will share her time between Paris and Singapore, to ensure close proximity to the teams and Travel Retail’s Asian center of gravity.  This will help better address the challenges of an ever-evolving travel retail landscape, and will leverage her unique talent for driving growth, transformation, and fostering unity across markets and functions.

Currently, President and Managing Director of L’Oréal Hong Kong, Eva has led the subsidiary through an extraordinary evolution, resulting in a significant increase in market share, in addition to widespread recognition for its retail excellence.  Eva’s commitment to people and purpose, has also led L’Oréal Hong Kong to earn numerous accolades for talent development, corporate responsibility and sustainability.

Eva began her career in 2000 as Brand Manager for Biotherm in Hong Kong, where she led the brand to become one of the top brands in the market.  In 2011, Eva broke new ground as the first Asian and the first woman appointed Managing Director of Travel Retail in APAC, where she led L’Oréal’s duty-free business across 27 markets, driving remarkable growth in footprint, brand image and market share.

Nicolas Hieronimus added: “Eva’s remarkable career, marked by her vision, and incredible ability to foster unity and harmonize efforts across different functions and markets, makes her an outstanding leader. Her deep understanding of the Asian market and her proven track record in driving both business transformation and people development, positions her as the ideal choice to lead our strategic Travel Retail business into its next chapter of growth and innovation”.

while remaining gentle enough for sensitive skin. The serum delivers transformative results

through a single, intelligently developed formula.

 

Inner Dose™ Daily Skin Supplement (SRP $50) — A dermatologist-formulated capsule that

addresses internal triggers of aging like inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormonal

imbalance, strengthening the skins foundation from within*

next-generation technologies accessible to consumers for the first time. Backed by an advisory

board of more than 350 dermatologists, scientists, and medical researchers, Elm is redefining what’s

possible in skincare—delivering potent, results-driven formulas that rival in-office treatments.

 

Martha Stewart, whose influence has shaped the lifestyle, beauty, and wellness spaces for decades,

has been a long-time patient of Dr. Bhanusali and partnered with him during the early development

of his biotech platform. Quietly, she began testing the prototypes—and never stopped. For five years,

these formulas became part of her daily routine, long before a brand or product name existed.

Stewart is also an investor in the company, bringing her trusted voice and deep industry insight to

the partnership.

Dr. Dhaval Bhanusali is a board-certified dermatologist, laser surgeon, and biotech entrepreneur

widely recognized as one of the most influential dermatologists in the industry. He has helped create

breakout brands like Rhode (acquired for $1B) and Skin Medicinals, the largest pharmatech platformin

dermatology, and is known for pioneering the integration of molecular dermatology with real-world

product application.

 

Elm Biosciences products are available for purchase exclusively at elmbiosciences.com and via

select dermatology and medical offices nationwide.

Heritage men’s fragrance brand, ARAMIS, officially launched its new scent, Intuition, with global ambassador, Dwyane Wade, during New York Fashion Week.

The celebration kicked off with an immersive pop-up on New York City’s iconic High Line, where guests explored the story behind the fragrance through scent, sound, and design. Dwyane Wade made a personal appearance at the interactive event, joined by his wife, actress Gabrielle Union.

Later in the afternoon, Wade participated in an intimate conversation around personal grooming, fragrance, and modern masculinity at Bloomingdale’s 59th Street. Moderated by Mike Muse, the conversation also featured Donato Smith, Wade’s longtime barber, and friend. Bloomingdale’s top clients were given the opportunity to connect in-person with Dwyane Wade, who has evolved from one of the most successful shooting guards of all time to a highly regarded multi-hyphenate producer, philanthropist, advocate, and entrepreneur.

In 1963, ARAMIS was created by Mrs. Estée Lauder, trailblazing entrepreneur and visionary founder of her eponymous cosmetics company, to be the most elegant men’s cologne in the world. Refined and distinctive, with a classic masculinity and sophistication that would transcend time, ARAMIS was the first prestige men’s fragrance to be sold in department stores around the world and quickly became an industry leader in the men’s fragrance and grooming category. Today, ARAMIS Fragrance is revitalized and reimagined for a new generation.

Calvin Klein Fragrances has launched CK Hair and Body Perfume Mists – a collection of four vibrant, easy-to-wear body scents, these light mists are designed to be worn like a second skin. Infused with a unique second-skin accord—blending musk, cashmeran, and ambergris—and developed with glycerin to keep your skin hydrated, the refreshing mists are light enough to layer but bold enough to wear on their own. Housed in colored bottles that nod to their respective scents and finished with the brand’s iconic cK logo, the collection of Silky Coconut, Sheer Peach, Nude Vanilla, and Cotton Musk, reflects Calvin Klein’s youthful energy and effortless sensuality.

This vibrant, youthful energy is perfectly captured in a new campaign shot by Stuart Winecoff, where the fresh and clean spirit of the mists come to life through a dynamic cast in motion, sensorial bursts of color, and rich ingredient textures.

To use, apply directly on the skin and as desired over hair. Each fragrance is vegan and gender-inclusive, delivering subtle depth and long-lasting freshness that captures a sense of cool, effortless confidence.

 

Silky Coconut

  • A fresh burst of icy coconut and juicy pineapple melts into warm musk accord for a clean, hydrating finish. Light, crisp and mood-boosting.

Sheer Peach

  • A burst of juicy peach flows into a sheer amber musk accord. The result is a scent that is luminous, radiant and unforgettable.

Nude Vanilla

  • This smooth cozy scent blends rich vanilla notes with a warm musk accord and amber woods for a cozy, clean finish. Subtle, sweet and irresistible.

Cotton Musk

  • Fresh and comforting like cotton, this delicate floral scent is wrapped in the warmth of a sensual musk accord. It’s subtle, fresh and perfectly balanced.

 

The CK Hair & Body Mists are available for $38 (236ml) each at Macys.com.
