AESOP

Every product is made with a mix of high-quality and concentrated ingredients : essences of plants very much sought-after (tea tree, bitter orange, tangerine, coriander, geranium) with delicate and refined perfumes. There are no animal ingredients and the synthetic preservatives are reduced to the minimum and are replaced by vegetable products. We also like the way products are presented : in simple and opaque bottles, in order to preserve them from ultraviolet rays and to preserve their integrity.

LUBIN

Everything started with Pierre-François Lubin, who created his Maison de Parfumerie (Perfume shop) in 1798, to give to “Incroyables” (the Incredible Dandies) and to “Merveilleuses” (the fine ladies) (our ancestors!) perfumed ribbons, masks for balls and face powder, but most of all, his famous “eau vivifiante”(invigorating-bracing water) which became “L’Eau de Lubin” (Lubin’s Water). Lubin’s fame reached empress Joséphine and Pauline Bonaparte, and he became their favorite before becoming the one of Marie Hélène de Bourbon and of all European sovereigns. One century later, in the Roaring twenties, a new perfume is created every year. The Art Deco perfume bottles are designed by Julien Viard and Maurice Depinoix and the luxurious editions are made of Baccarat Crystal.

Lubin’s perfumes are the symbol of French elegance, particularly in the United-States, and until 1975 success has continued before the brand felt into oblivion with the massive appearance on the market of perfumes made by top fashion designers. In 1999, Gilles Thévenin, director of creation at Guerlain at that time, decides to give a new life to Lubin, which still represents to him the quintessence of French luxury. It is a titanic project but, fortunately, he has a great part of the 450 scents created by the brand and he decides, with Olivia Giacobetti’s help (one of the famous noses of French perfumery, remember En Passant at Frédéric Malle) to put some of them back on the market, alternating with the creations of new fragrances.

STONE

The jewelry of Marie Poniatowski, the creator of STONE is modern, accessible and easy to wear. Light and infinitely poetic, her precious jewels are similar to the ornaments of the Victorian era that she loves so much.
The diamond, dazzling without being ostentatious, often treated in micro cut, reigns supreme. Gold is fashioned like spidery lace. The dormeuses, these earrings typical of refined 19th century adornments and formed by an element suspended on a curved gold rod, became the emblem of the House.

Its pendants, rings and bracelets are inspired by travel souvenirs, architectural elements and fragments of nature, so stylized that they transform into contemporary motifs. The presence of dark gold and black diamonds gives some of her jewels a dark beauty, accentuated by motifs from the world of music. Between rock and romanticism, some suit both girls and boys.
