It’s funny that you mention Charlotte Tilbury and Tom Ford because I think she was the creative director for Tom Ford beauty before starting her own line

The bottle lids resemble butt plugs…

MAKING SCENTS OF IT ALL's avatar

Such a shame they are not good. The original discontinued scent was brilliant, a slaggy rose that smelt a bit like Vivienne Westwood or Agent Provocateur, I loved it, and I don't like rose perfumes. As an indie brand founder who released functional frags in 2020, it's a bit annoying seeing lines like this ripping us off. I love your thoughts on AI fragrance too! thanks for writing.

God, I wish the designer houses were still bold enough to make something like AP's L'agent - can you imagine that prowling, powdery myrrh scent being released by anyone today?

Beautiful analysis on CT. When Puig bought other niche fragrance brands, I understood it...
