Alexander Vreeland has a nose for good taste, much like his grandmother, fashion maven and columnist Diana Vreeland, hence why he decided to name his perfume company in her honor. Diana Vreeland Parfums was created with the vision to launch a luxury brand, which Alexander has had substantial experience with given that he previously worked within the marketing and sales realms at Ralph Lauren and Giorgio Armani. Since 2009, Alexander has been president of the Diana Vreeland Estate, which has been instrumental in revitalizing awarenessabout his grandmother through books, film, and a museum exhibit. Here, he shares a look at his desktop essentials.
