Young, audacious, discerning, the wearer of Gucci Guilty is a heroine for our age: a 21st century beauty. A warm yet striking oriental floral with top notes of mandarin and pink pepper, middles notes of peach, lilac and geranium and base notes of amber and patchouli. The effect is at once arresting and compellingly seductive. The advertisement was directed by film noir graphic artist and Sin City creator Frank Miller.

Lord & Taylor’s Fifth Avenue flagship in New York City has had a complete makeover, and we walked through the beauty floor with Barbara Zinn-Moore, the retailer’s Senior Vice President and General Merchandise Manager for Cosmetics and Home. We also attended the sparkling opening night party for the store’s “ultimate facelift.” Fragrance was the topic of choice for many events in this issue. The Fragrance Foundation; organized an Insider’s Breakfast hosted by The Estée Lauder Companies’ Senior Vice President and General Manager Carol Russo and held its annual Autumn Harvest, where fragrances, wines and food were paired by a Perfumer and a Chef to complement each other. Six Perfumers from Givaudan participated in the Six Scents Parfums project, in which they collaborated with Fashion Designers to build six olfactory interpretations. Cosmetic Executive Women’s members and guests learned about “The Art of Fragrance” from The Estée Lauder Companies’ Vice President, Corporate Fragrance Devel- opment Trudi Loren and Givaudan’s Executive Perfumer Calice Becker. We sniffed scents with the Sniffapaloozas as they traveled around Manhattan, from uptown to downtown, for their Fall Ball. We experienced the high-octane glamour at The Fashion Group International’s Night of Stars, where fashion and beauty luminaries were honored. Building a beauty business was the topic of our profile on Laura Geller, the Founder and CEO of Laura Geller Beauty Ingenuity. The Makeup Artist turned beauty entrepreneur and QVC star shares her experience in developing her products and her vision for taking the business to the next level. Beauty Fashion’s Foreign Correspondent Lorraine Wilson-Morris gives us an overview of the highly successful Perfume Diaries at London’s Harrods. Regional Correspondent Mary Sit covers the opening of Stage Stores’ new Beauty Bar at the retailer’s Palais Royal in Katy, Texas. As we close out 2010, it is time to reflect on our blessings this holiday season. I thank all of you for being part of our Beauty Fashion family and wish you a very happy New Year. Adelaide P.
