Great Scott! The fashion designer, and girlfriend of the Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger, releases her exclusive new scent at Barneys, retailing at $195 (RM595).
Scott's new scent, called L'Wren Scott, will be released exclusively at Barneys, the NYC store throwing a lavish dinner in her honor at The Carlyle.
Scott chose to work with Ralf Schwieger, the perfumer behind Hermès Eau de Merveilles, Marc Jacobs Men, and Yves St. Laurent Baby Doll, among others. "I knew what I wanted," she said. When they sat down for their first sessions, Scott, who has been mixing her own essential oils since her teens, had done her homework: "Ralf was quite surprised."
"I play to the sensual and sexy side," she told WWD. The formula hints at "absinthe, star anise, coriander, mandarin and marigold, followed by a heart of tuberose, jasmine, geranium, curry and clove buds." The drydown comprises "Brazilian patchouli, musk, leather, amber and moss."
Packaged in a white cardboard box, the scent comes in a dark red glass bottle and will be sold exclusively at Barneys for six to eight months, priced at $195 for 3.4 oz.
This is not the designer's first venture into the world of beauty. Scott previously collaborated with Lancôme in 2010 on a holiday season collection and also releases a range of nail polish shades each season.
