passions: soccer, Vespas—and the global beauty industry. “I’m in my quiet period,” Scannavini joked of the transitional time before introducing the evening’s speakers: Coty Beauty president Renato Semerari and Coty Prestige’s senior vice president of American fragrances, Catherine Walsh. “Beauty and the beast,” he teasingly dubbed the duo.

In a conversation moderated by CEW chairwoman Jill Scalamandre centered around the theme of innovation, Semerari said that, contrary to Coty’s reputation as a celebrity fragrance specialist, the category only comprises

11% of its fragrance business, whereas 66% is comprised by its designer sector. Walsh, the reigning queen of Coty’s prestige fragrances, spoke to the importance of packaging—an issue she says she could “talk about all night.

“When you think about it, fragrance is really the least innovative category in beauty,” she said, “and packaging is a crucial tool to instantly create that sense of theater in store.” Walsh then held up a bottle of Jennifer Lopez’s latest, Glowing, which actually illuminates with each use, she noted, giggling delightedly.

And as she finds special inspiration in flowers, a signature and calming rose scent threads through the collection, while each product features its own floral infusion—including magnolia, peony and more.

The Essentials Collection comprises makeup, skin and body products as well as brushes and a makeup bag—done in the line’s signature rose

and white pat-tern. Prices range f r o m $ 2 8 . 0 0 for a Rose Lip Conditioner to $148.00 for a set of five brushes, h o u s e d i n a signature case. Packaging fea-tu re s go lden , white and soft pink accents.

The debut fall Color Collection, dubbed Weekday and Weekend, has been carefully curated to help women transition their makeup looks from polished and professional to casual elegance. The 6-SKU lineup comprises two palettes, two lipsticks and two glosses—one for each time of week—ranging in price from $30.00 to $70.00. Floral-infused formulas both moisturize and soothe the senses.

medal of beauty,” spoke about the ‘lipstick index’—a term coined by Leonard Lauder to describe increased spending on beauty products during a recession due to the category’s position as affordable luxury. Wells herself put forth a different theory. In tough economic times, “women tend to focus more on appearance in order to attract a rich mate,” she quipped.

The three collections of Robert Piguet Parfums are available at Bergdorf Goodman.

Developed by subjecting flowers to scientific experimentation, ultra- contemporary design wiz Nicolas Ghesquière will unveil this month the latest perfume creation by Basque-born brand Balenciaga.

Entitled Florabotanica, the scent was inspired by a collection of structured floral fashions Ghesquière designed some years ago. “The dresses were covered with flowers, but these flowers were neither charming nor romantic. They structured the whole silhouette,” he said. “I wanted the flowers in this perfume to express the same idea.”

The name Florabotanica also evokes the 18th century botanical gardens that displayed exotic, rare and strange-colored plants discovered in distant lands and recovered by experiment-hungry biologists, said Coty, which holds the Balenciaga fragrance license. (Balenciaga is now owned by the French multinational holding company PPR.)

“Flowers can be cruel, carnivorous or venomous and even contain poisons,” Ghesquière added. “This is

the story that we wanted to tell with Florabotanica.”

Composed by internationally-renowned noses Olivier Polge and Jean-Christophe Hérault of International Flavors and Fragrances (IFF), the juice features two primary accords. Vetiver, amber and caladium leaf yield a mossy mélange, while rose, carnation and mint exhilarate with juvenile freshness. The secret rose note, dubbed experimental rose, originates from Turkey and has both romantic and dangerous aspects, Ghesquière added.

The fragrance will live in a bottle that Coty has likened to “a couture

object”—accented with the graphic black and white stripes that were a signature design element of founder Cristóbal Balenciaga. An oversized tube with these bold lines plunges into the juice like a laboratory test tube looking to capture the essence of flowers, Coty said.

Twilight beauty Kristen Stewart will serve as Florabotanica’s muse, after meeting and captivating Ghesquière years ago. She will appear in ads for the fragrance this fall, selected for her rebellious femininity and uncontrollable beauty, Coty said.

Eaux de parfum in 1.0, 1.7 and 3.4 oz. sizes will retail for $65.00, $95.00 and $125.00. A body lotion and shower gel—each sized at 6.8 oz. and priced at $50.00—will also be available. The line launches exclu-sively at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus this month, and will roll out to additional specialty doors in October.

Boston and Burlington, Lord & Taylor in Braintree and Burlington and Nordstrom in Burlington.

“We have terrific products and we educate our beauty consultants to offer excep-tional service at point-of-sale,” Mangan explained. “Once we get a new customer to try Shiseido products, they come back and are the most loyal customers I have experienced.”

“The secret to success in cosmetics is all about talent. When you have the right people at the counter, business is amazing,” stated Craig Davis, vice president/store manager of Macy’s Downtown/Boston. “It’s all about personality and being able to connect with the customer

to find out what they are looking for, what their needs are and then applying the product at counter to suit those needs.”

Mangan is especially proud of the new Shiseido installation at Macy’s Downtown/Boston. “We have a top space and location at this new Shiseido counter, which

exemplifies what the brand i s about g lobal ly. The installation’s bold, updated red and white graphics really give us a strong brand image [on the beauty floor]. We have several consultation areas including a private space where customers can experience a facial massage. We worked with our team at this counter to create an environment that suited everything from traffic flow within the store to storage and showcase options for

the products to areas for complimentary beauty services.”

BULLETINCOLES TO EDIT COSMO, FULENWIDER HEADING TO MARIE CLAIREJoanna Coles, who has served as editor in chief of Marie Claire for six years, has been named editor of Cosmopolitan, effective September 10. She replaces longtime editor Kate White, who will remain at Hearst as an advisor, but has decided to focus on her writing and speaking career. Coles will report to Hearst Magazines president David Carey. Stepping into the top spot at Marie Claire vacated by Coles is Anne Fulenwider, who has served as the editor in chief of Brides since October 2011. She will also report to Carey.

“Cosmopolitan is an iconic brand that resonates with women worldwide,” Coles said. “To be able to take over the flagship edition is both a huge challenge and an incredible oppor-tunity. I relish the chance to put my stamp on Cosmo and make it the young woman’s ultimate playbook for conf idence, choices and navigating change.”

“I am thrilled to return to Marie Claire as editor in chief,” said Fulenwider, who formerly served as the magazine’s executive editor. “I have such a strong attachment to the brand and what it delivers to the savvy, stylish women who read it.”

LAURA MERCIER LAUNCHES OVARIAN CANCER FUNDLaura Mercier Cosmet ics has launched an Ovarian Cancer Fund to raise awareness, support educational efforts and fund research of the disease—which is the number one killer among gynecological cancers.

This month, the brand will donate 100% of profits from two products—the Bonne Mine Healthy Glow for Face & Cheeks Crème Colour Palette and the Rose Hope Lip Glacé—to its Laura Mercier Ovarian Cancer Fund. Throughout September and October, the brand will also run public service announcements in leading magazines and launch a dedicated web initiative with mobile application, in-store mer-

Products include the all-new Advanced Cream and Advanced Lotion. The American Breast Cancer Foundation provides screenings, diagnostic testing and treatment services to individuals and medical clinics at reduced fees or free of charge nationwide.

DRELL SZYFER AWARDED BY JWIJewish Women International (JWI) has selected Elana Drell Szyfer as one of its 2012 Woman to Watch. The CEO of AHAVA North America will be honored for her business acumen and for balancing career and mother-hood at a gala event on December 3 at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park. She also appears in the fall issue of Jewish Woman alongside nine fellow honorees.

Drell Szyfer was appointed general manager and subsequently CEO of AHAVA North America in January 2011 after a nearly 20-year career at Estée Lauder, L’Oréal and Avon. Under her tutelage at AHAVA, she has improved internal operations, refocused distribution channels, increased brand awareness, and led the business to strong double-digit growth.

“My job is to make the brand commercially successful, but I also have a responsibility to increase positive awareness surrounding Israel and its consumer goods industry,” Drell Szyfer told Jewish Woman of her work at AHAVA.

“Both Laura Mercier and I have been personally touched by ovarian cancer—I through my sister, who lost her battle with the disease, and Laura through a dear friend who has been fighting for years,” said Claudia Poccia, president and CEO of Gurwitch Products, LLC, which manufactures and distributes the brand.

“The mission of the Laura Mercier Ovarian Cancer Fund is at the core of our brand,” said Mercier, the brand’s global ambassador, “and we are committed to making a difference in the lives of women.”
