When did you first have the idea to create a line of scents?
\n<\/strong>More than eight years ago when I left Vogue Paris I decided to do something new, something that I had never done. I spent a lot of time with my dear friend Karl Lagerfeld. One of the greatest pieces of advice he ever gave me was to do something that people don\u2019t expect from you and be the first one to do it. In a way, I\u2019m one of the first editor-in-chiefs to create a parfum line.<\/em><\/p>\n

Can you explain the creative process that made these scents a reality?
\n<\/strong>I\u2019ve always thought of scent as the most defining accessory. It speaks volumes about who you are and how you identify yourself to the world. When I set out to create my own product line eight years ago, developing a collection of fragrances is what came to me naturally. I conjured a character and fantasy with each scent that tells a story.<\/em><\/p>\n

What was it like working with your son to create the collection?
\n<\/strong>My son and business partner Vladimir played an integral role in the collection. Vladimir was the one who told me I should consider launching something under my own name rather than collaborating with another brand. He knew that this was how I could leave a legacy for him, my daughter and my granddaughter. He became my business partner two years ago and took over the creative direction of the seventh and final scent, Vladimir. It\u2019s been a very special experience to work with him on this.<\/em><\/p>\n

Creating one scent is quite an undertaking\u2026 Why did you decide to make seven?
\n<\/strong>I wanted to create a line of fragrances so customers could have a variety of options to find their perfect scent, rather than just have only one choice. The seven fragrances are all genderless, suitable for both men and women. They are all crafted with high quality natural ingredients that react to the skin to create a truly personal aroma to the wearer.<\/em><\/p>\n

You allude to seven \u201clovers\u201d associated with each scent\u2026 Who were your inspirations?
\n<\/strong>As an editor I know how difficult it is to speak about perfumes\u2014it\u2019s hard to put the scent into words when people haven\u2019t even smelled it yet. I knew that creating a story for each one was the perfect way to identify their persona. Each scent tells the story of a man\u2014some real and some from my daydreams\u2014in one of my favorite cities. I came up with each of them in bed with a cup of tea. It was an incredibly personal process.<\/em><\/p>\n

You have several personal stories linked to the individual scents\u2026 Could you share a few?
\n<\/strong>Vladimir is inspired by my Russian heritage. It\u2019s also the name of my son and my father. This scent celebrates where I come from and is one of my favorites.\u00a0<\/em>Lawrence, the Dubai perfume, is named after <\/em>Lawrence of Arabia. I discovered all the ways to protect myself from the sun from that movie.<\/em><\/p>\n

You obviously have a highly evolved aesthetic eye\u2026 What is the significance of the bottle design?
\n<\/strong>The bottle is dressed in one of my favorite colors\u2014khaki. The shape is a modern twist on a flask, almost sensual to hold in the hand.<\/em><\/p>\n

What\u2019s the connection between fragrance and personal style?
\n<\/strong>When I worked at <\/em>Vogue\u00a0Paris, my colleagues always recognized my blended scent of YSL\u2019s Opium with Serge Lutens\u2019 Fleurs d\u2019Oranger in the hallways. Even when I\u2019m not going out, I need to wear a perfume. Scent is such a significant part of who you are, and I hope the fragrances become a staple ritual in men and women\u2019s daily routines.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
