Oud Essentiel from Guerlain

Following on from Santal Royal and Ambre Éternel, the perfumer explorer is continuing his oriental correspondence with Oud Essentiel: the Wood of the gods, sinking wood… Extremely precious, oud is known in Asia under several names, oud that you inhale in whiffs of incense, oud that enchants and enthrals, oud that is pure fragrance gold in the Orient.

Today still, it is regarded as one of the favoured ingredients in perfumery and permeates hair and clothing in the Middle East.

With Oud Essentiel, Thierry Wasser is celebrating oriental perfumery, from Oman to Vietnam, through India, Laos and Cambodia.

AN OUD DISTINGUISHED BY FRESHNESS, a rare and refined raw ingredient, with a hint of spice that evokes the red gold of the caravanserais.

A saffron note and geranium meet to compose the top note of this woody and leathery accord. Cedar and very green rose deeply combine, exuding an unprecedented fresh and warm fragrance. A sense of enchantment is then created by a leather note paired with the strength of gaiac wood. Finally, the smooth and dry amber accord reveals a precious facet of this fragrance, which is strong, sensual and sacred in one.

After amethyst for Ambre Éternel and black for Santal Royal, Oud Essentiel shines in a refined green bottle adorned with a luminous label reminiscent of the wooden lattices of the Middle East, set off with an elegant green and golden ribbon.

The quintessence of an oriental fragrance journey.

ELIE SAAB Le Parfum Scented Hair Mist

Immerse yourself further in the exceptional world of ELIE SAAB by discovering the new perfuming ritual: ELIE SAAB Le Parfum Scented Hair Mist.

The light mist leaves the hair beautiful and delicately scented, enveloping it in an elegant trail similar to the train of an exquisite Haute Couture dress.

Compliment the ELIE SAAB Le Parfum Scented Hair Mist with the ELIE SAAB Le Parfum Eau de Parfum fragrance, both of which accentuate radiant femininity with a floral solar woody theme.

From the first notes, the soaring brilliance of the orange blossom sets the tone for this olfactory spell. A solar evocation of armfuls of Mediterranean petals, whose luminosity comes from the rays of the sun at its zenith.

The heart is amplified by the most sumptuous quality of jasmines – absolutes of jasmine grandiflorum and sambac – the fragrance enriches its sensuality with the gentle shading of a very pure “patchouli heart”.

The tone of the white flower bouquet is filled out voluptuously by a cedar woody accord, which gives the floral notes a new density. The trail unfurls, infinitely elegant and enveloping, borrowing its addictive notes from rose honey.

5 Best New Scents for this Season

1- Mon Guerlain, Guerlain

Mon Guerlain, the new fragrance that pays homage to contemporary femininity by uniting the contrasts expressed by the strength of taut lines and the sensuality of curves, evoking a strong, free and sensual femininity having Angelina Jolie as face of the perfume .

TAHITENSIS VANILLA is the starting point behind the composition work of Guerlain, a favorite raw material inseparable from any Guerlain masterpiece and also present in Shalimar, Habit Rouge and Jicky.

CARLA LAVENDER, despite its classic masculine attribute in perfumery, joins the sensual and mysterious Tahitensis vanilla. It was necessary to find exceptional and rare lavender, with unique olfactory properties that would satisfy the expectations of Guerlain, the Perfumer. Carla lavender shakes up the sensual, enveloping and almost maternal feminine component of vanilla by infusing it with its audacity, freshness, purity and simplicity. This is not an effect of opposition or compromise, but rather the richness brought about by difference explains Delphine Jelk, who co-created the fragrance.

SAMBAC JASMINE gathered at sunrise, reminds us that femininity is also revealed in the grace of dawn. It is the link that connects delicious vanilla to lavender; it is the esthete that gives this composition all of its finesse.

SANTALUM ALBUM SANDALWOOD expresses the inner riches and resources possessed by all women. It is the wood that gives strength and preserves the mystery of eternal femininity

Price: AED580. Available at Sephora stores and online.

2- Oud Satin Mood extrait de parfum, Maison Francis Kurkjian

Like a shooting star that lights up a desert sky, OUD satin mood extrait de parfum leaves an enchantingly opulent sillage. In this newest creation by Francis Kurkdjian, an abundance of roses from Turkey and Bulgaria round out the oud wood’s dark, animalistic tones with their sensuality, before enveloping the violet blossoms in softness.

The extrait de parfum interpretation remains the perfumer’s ultimate olfactory signature: without contradicting his fragrance’s original inspiration, he has provoked an opulent explosion of its most prominent notes while ensuring a harmonious new whole. Just as the OUD satin mood eau de parfum evokes the sensual movements of satin, this extrait de parfum variation accentuates the fabric’s Oriental reflections.

Price: AED1450. Available at Paris Gallery.

3- NARCISO eau de parfum, narciso rodriguez

Art has always been a crucial influence on Narciso Rodriguez’s creative process. Fine artists and designers are part of the same category of intensely visual people, he has said, each of whom creates work with a distinctive point of view and discerning sensibility. “Fine artists, architects and designers are keen observers who produce singular interpretations and innovation,” says the designer.

The colors of the three scents in the NARCISO fragrance line are carefully considered. The initial fragrance, NARCISO eau de parfum, is a warm stone-white, inspired by a stone found on a visit to Aphrodite’s birthplace. This particular ‘white’ doesn’t just capture an aesthetic purity; it alludes to the mythical romance of the fragrance. The blush color of NARCISO eau de parfum poudree signifies extreme seduction while black, the color of NARCISO eau de toilette, implies mystery.

– NARCISO EDP 90ML: AED 560

– NARCISO EDT 90 ML: AED 560

– NARCISO Poudree 90 ML: AED 520

Available at Sephora

Solar. Refreshing. Sensual. In 2017, the Alien Solar Goddess radiates her beneficial energy through a new limited-edition creation: Alien Eau Sublime. A dazzling and energizing eau de toilette, Alien Eau Sublime awakens the senses.

Alien Eau Sublime comes to life in a new crystalline container, inspired by the legendary Alien bottle. The amethyst purple of Alien gives way to a luminous gold that evokes the solar quality of the fragrance inside. A new interpretation of Alien Eau de Parfum, Alien Eau Sublime has kept the original Alien signature, woven from cashmeran wood and sambac jasmine, in a variation that is fresher and sunnier. To attain its zenith, the fragrance was written around three revelations:

• Energizing revelation : The zesty green notes of mandarin and bitter orange steep us instantly in a dynamic cocktail that brings vigor and vibrancy to the fragrance.

• Solar revelation : The solar flower par excellence and the emblematic signature of all Alien creations, sambac jasmine meets the soft and sensual tones of another white flower: Tiaré, overdosed in this composition. This happy marriage brings sparkle to the sun-filled heart of Alien Eau Sublime.

• Enveloping revelation : Finally, amber and woody notes skillfully convey the feeling of a warm, enveloping cocoon and comforting well-being.

Elizabeth Arden introduces the next level in environmental protection

For the launch of PREVAGE® City Smart, the latest addition to the PREVAGE® range by Elizabeth Arden, the brand unveiled the new product during an exclusive press event, hosted by Shereen Mitwalli.

Guests attended a morning breakfast and presentation, in a refreshing setting by the sea and surrounded by greenery, and were invited to discover PREVAGE® City Smart, which offers a revolution in skin protection and anti-aging solutions. The attendees were introduced to the new skincare serum by Sebastian Clifton-Welker, Director of Public Relations International, who presented PREVAGE® City Smart as a first-of-its-kind invisible skin shield, which combines pollution and UV protection with a DNA Enzyme Complex^TM to strengthen skin.

Shereen Mitwalli embodies the dynamic Elizabeth Arden woman who celebrates life, with her charismatic persona and active lifestyle. She brought all guests attention to aggressive environmental factors, as well as the urban dust study, highlighting the importance of anti-pollution skincare, and how to #OutSmartTheCity. Shereen recalled the triple action protection technology of PREVAGE® City Smart which delivers younger, healthier, more resilient looking skin in three phases: Protect, Prevent & Strengthen.

PREVAGE® CITY SMART + DNA ENZYME COMPLEX™ + ANTI-POLLUTION +

ANTIOXIDANTS BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 50 PA+++ HYDRATING SHIELD

Superior Anti-Aging Technology—It’s In Our DNA
Every day in cities all over the world, the environment is visibly aging your skin; in fact, 80% of all signs of skin aging are due to environmental aggressors such as UV rays, pollution and smoke. Recognizing the global epidemic of pollution, Elizabeth Arden, the leading authority in high-tech environmental anti-aging solutions, introduces a first-of-its-kind invisible skin shield: new PREVAGE® City Smart + DNA Enzyme Complex™ + Anti-Pollution + Antioxidants Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ Hydrating Shield.

PREVAGE® City Smart was developed in partnership with leading scientists, chemists, and dermatologists to be a daily use product that combines pollution and UV protection with a DNA Enzyme Complex^TM to strengthen skin. By neutralizing the impact of environmental and oxidative stress on the skin, PREVAGE® City Smart effectively keeps it looking younger, smoother, brighter and protected.

A REVOLUTION IN SKIN PROTECTION, PREVAGE CITY SMART:

Protects against pollution with Anti-Pollution Shield Technology and a patent-pending highly potent Anti-Pollution Complex featuring Idebenone
Defends against UVA and UVB rays with a 100% Mineral Broad Spectrum SPF50 Sunscreen
Strengthens skin’s natural defenses with a DNA Enzyme Complex

HOW POLLUTION AFFECTS YOUR SKIN:

Exposure to UV rays and pollution—particularly in urban areas— wreaks havoc on skin, right down to its DNA. Sun exposure is well known to be a major cause of visible skin aging and now recent studies reveal the need to also shield the skin from air pollutants called ambient particulate matter (PM). Ambient PM generates excess free radicals, which interfere with skin’s ability to produce collagen and elastin and retain moisture, resulting in accelerated signs of aging. This harmful pollution is directly correlated to a rise in dark spots, inflammation, fine lines and wrinkles.^†‡While cells naturally produce DNA repair enzymes that help counteract this damage, as we age the levels of these enzymes drop, making the process less effective.

URBAN DUST STUDY:

The Elizabeth Arden Research & Development team used an innovative method to show how City Smart protects against Urban Dust, a time-integrated sample of atmospheric PM—including exceptionally harmful nano-sized pollution particles—that typifies the type of pollution found in major global cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Beijing, Mumbai, London and Paris. In-vitro testing showed that when protected with City Smart’s Anti-Pollution Complex, the viability of cells exposed to Urban Dust was improved by 5 times versus unprotected cells.

“The Air Quality Index, or AQI, is the unit used to measure air pollution in the environment based on the PM 10 concentrations (µg/m3) present,” says Lavinia Popescu, Senior Director of Research and Development at Elizabeth Arden. “While heavily populated cities typically have average AQIs between 50 and 150, the Urban Dust sample measures higher than 500 AQI – the highest, ‘Hazardous’ level on the Air Quality Index spectrum and as much as 10 times the PM of these cities. Since Urban Dust represents a higher level of PM than heavily polluted cities around the world, we are confident that City Smart can provide optimal pollution protection on a global scale.”

TRIPLE ACTION PROTECTION:

City Smart’s patent-pending formula features advanced Triple Action Protection technology, which delivers younger, healthier, more resilient looking skin in three phases:

PROTECT: Anti-Pollution Shield Technology forms an invisible protective barrier to help prevent harmful toxins and pollution particles from penetrating skin. 100% Mineral Broad Spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen (micronized Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide) filters out UVA and UVB rays.

PREVENT: A potent, patent-pending Anti-Pollution Complex is comprised of an exclusive antioxidant blend of Idebenone, the world’s single most powerful antioxidant, Green Tea, Thiotaine, Ferulic Acid and L-Carnosine, to neutralize free radical damage caused by pollution and UV exposure, including both oxygen-based and nitrogen-based free radicals. In addition, City Smart also helps to prevent the appearance of future signs of skin aging, including lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.

STRENGTHEN: A DNA Enzyme Complex™ formulated with purified enzymes derived from Plankton, Arabidopsis Thaliana, and Ocean Bacteria extracts helps protect against free radical damage and supports skin’s natural repair process against oxidative stress. Skin’s elastin and collagen matrix are protected and its natural recovery process is strengthened resulting in healthier, more resilient looking skin.

STUDIES SHOW:

- Screens out 98% of harmful UVB rays
- Provides broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection
- Maintains optimal skin health even in the most heavily polluted cities
- 83% of women felt that their skin appeared more even^§§
- 81% of women saw an improvement in tone^§§
- 78% felt there was a visible improvement in skin’s condition
- 76% saw an improvement in skin discolorations

This sheer, hydrating multi-active skin defender is an essential last step in daily skincare regimens, regardless of age, skin type or concern. PREVAGE® City Smart also contains a universal tint and optical diffusers that work well with all skin tones and makeup products. The formula comes in a polyfoil airless pump, and is non-comedogenic, paraben free and dermatologist tested.

For the ultimate in environmental protection and repair, use PREVAGE® Anti-Aging + Intensive Repair Daily Serum in advance of City Smart.

PRICE:| 250 AED 40ml.

AVAILABILITY: In Areej and Wojooh department stores regionally.

Abeille Royale new day creams and a night cream

Developed by Guerlain Research, the age-defying skincare products in the Abeille Royale range are composed of active ingredients with exceptional repairing properties derived from bee products*, especially honey from Ouessant Island in France. The formulas of the two new Day Creams and the new Night Cream have been revised to offer even greater effectiveness and sensory pleasure.

The result: The skin’s appearance is instantly and lastingly transformed and the visible signs of skin ageing minimised, to even more precisely meet women’s expectations in terms of age-defying skincare.

The DAY CREAM and RICH DAY CREAM: Two creams, two textures, two innovative formulas.

Firming – Wrinkle Minimising – Radiance

An innovative technology: At the heart of the new Abeille Royale Day Creams lies a Repairing Concentrate with a comprehensive action that works on all the key levels of the skin to improve its radiance and the quality of its texture. It originates from the Guerlain Research laboratories’ discovery that Ouessant honey helped boost the production of genes coding for two proteins that play a role in forming the skin’s barrier (stimulation of Cornifin gene expression by 50% and Elafin gene expression by 27% by keratinocytes in culture)*.

It incorporates two types of hyaluronic acid:

• One of high molecular weight that acts rapidly on the surface, hydrates and smooths the skin, minimising wrinkles and fine lines.

• The other of low molecular weight that passes through the skin’s mesh to:

– boost the proliferation of epidermal* cells to reduce surface imperfections

– boost collagen and fibroblast synthesis in the dermis*

Sensory textures

The new Day Cream texture is a perfect balance between richness and lightness. The texture’s comforting softness can instantly be felt, leaving skin radiant and comfortable. The Rich Day Cream has an utterly delectable texture as rich as a balm. Enriched with beeswax butter, derived entirely from natural sources, the formula gently glides over the skin, which instantly appears smoother. A gourmet pleasure enhanced even further by its honey colour. On application, this nectar’s slightly fresh, sunkissed fragrance holds an enchanting appeal. Honeyed notes of beeswax absolute fuse with the more floral aromas of mimosa and broom, blending with the scent of fresh herbs…

and a soothing action. Moroccan honey’s antioxidant properties target free radicals(1) and decrease their production by more than half. It also spectacularly reduces prostaglandins E2, pro-infl ammatory mediators(1) that contribute to premature skin ageing. the luscious, silky smooth texture makes application a pleasure and holds the promise of effectiveness on wrinkles, fi rmness and facial contours during the night, the most conducive time for skin renewal.

… Which honeys?

Originally, Ouessant honey…

On the island of Ouessant(1), located 18 km off the Brittany coast and listed as a nature reserve by UNESCO, forages a black bee (Apis mellifera mellifera) endemic to the island that produces a honey of exceptional purity due to its genetic properties and the exceptional quality of the Ouessant ecosystem, free from any pollution or intensive farming. This honey with a slightly salty taste boasts an exceptionally high content in minerals and trace elements (sodium, magnesium, calcium, selenium, silicon) as well as amino acids. These are all elements that are particularly active in the skin, both in the connective tissue and also in collagen and elastin fibre synthesis. Rare and pure Ouessant honey is at the heart of Abeille Royale Repairing Concentrate. This concentrate boosts self-repair at every key level of the skin for instant and lasting age-defying effectiveness(2).

… and exclusive Sologne royal jelly

Another key ingredient in the concentrate is incorporated into the different formulas: Guerlain’s exclusive Sologne royal jelly. It nourishes skin to leave it firmer and more toned.
