DNA ◊ We are not going to lie, in the editorial office, we find the male Cerruti irresistible: timeless, feline, he has the gallantry of men who have confidence in them, the dark eye of film noir heroes and the quickdraw relaxed attitude of those in control. A DNA with electrifying charm. The watch ◊ Or more exactly the watch line. We found it very appropriate to launch it for such a symbolic anniversary.

Before each vacation, it's the same thing: the battle of self to self begins, to pack a suitcase with a small size and full contents. You have to make wise choices. To embalm your summer with a sensual fragrance, perfume yourself with Rose Desgranges, the legendary bottle from rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré…. What olfactory notes?

Today, the olfactory pyramid remains unchanged, although the nose Benoist Lapouza has reinterpreted it. Rose of course, but also bergamot, jasmine, iris, vanilla, patchouli and musk. A floral, woody, elegant and feminine cascade. Why do we need it during the holidays? Because summer calls for sensual impressions, perfumes that do honor to the body and sublimate it, that evoke the spiritual subtly, delicately. Smells that make you want to think outside the box and celebrate femininity...

Where to invite a friend who is passing through Paris?

∇ When a foreign friend arrives in Paris with the (legitimate!) desire to see everything and try everything in record time, it's not easy to choose... The Louvre? The Arc de Triomphe? The Grand Palace? The bridge of Arts ? A gourmet tea room, a gourmet restaurant? We can't do everything, do you already think...wrong! With its snack, lunch or dinner formula, the Bustronome compensates for the vagaries of time and space, and offers the gift of ubiquity... Just that. Decryption.
