Marcocci held numerous positions at P&G, including global digital and e-commerce director for its prestige division.

LVMH’s Perfumes and Cosmetics Division closed 2019 with sales of 6.84 billion euros, up 12 percent year-over-year in reported terms and 9 percent on an organic basis. The company cited Dior as a main growth driver for the branch, and said the brand’s business grew much faster than the beauty market.

“In addition to the strength of its iconic perfumes J’Adore, Miss Dior and Sauvage, makeup and skin care contributed signiﬁcantly to the excellent performance of the maison,” LVMH Azzedine Alaïa RTW Fall 2020 said in a statement.
