Byredo X Amelia Gray: Unveiling the Core of Mojave Ghost 11:42 AM Thursday, March 28, 2024 In the second chapter of Byredo’s olfactive journey, “Mojave Ghost” is dissected to reveal the intricate layers that make up its essence. “Olfactive Study x Mohavea Confertiflora” explores the fragrance’s heart, where the ghost flower’s resilience is translated into a scent that defies the barren landscape it inhabits. With a blend of Nesberry, Oakmoss, and Ambrette, Mojave Ghost opens to reveal a heart of Violet, Sandalwood, and Magnolia. Its base is composed of Musk, Vetiver, and Cedarwood, which encapsulates the essence of the desert in a unique blend. Amelia Gray stands amidst the vastness of the desert, her presence as striking as the ghost flower itself. The imagery is a study in contrasts: the delicate appearance of Mohavea confertiflora against the rugged desert terrain and the way it thrives year after year. It’s a visual representation of the fragrance’s narrative – one of beauty and strength found in the most unexpected places. As the story of Mojave Ghost continues to unfold throughout the year, each chapter promises to delve deeper into the fragrance’s narrative, maintaining an ongoing dialogue between visionary photographer Harley Weir and muse Amelia Gray. It’s a tale of transformation, adaptation, and strength, told through the lens of a fragrance that has captivated the senses for a decade.

CHANEL – THE ICONIC HANDBAG 9:20 AM Friday, March 29, 2024 – “Sorry, do you have any rooms available?” This quote comes from the film A Man and A Woman (1966), which explores one of life’s greatestemotions: falling in love. Virginie Viard has always been passionate about cinema – particularly the New Wave – and wanted to pay tribute to Claude Lelouch’s masterpiece.A work that smoulders with sensuality, with that legendary beach scene… the horizon as far as the eye can see… the eternal sea… and, of course, Deauville. Deauville. The seaside resort where Mademoiselle Chanel opened a hat boutique bearing her name in 1912 and where she presented her first Haute Couture creations in 1913. There are no coincidences… But if they do exist, they are marvellous in terms of intuition, finesse and wisdom, because in the original film, the actress carried a CHANEL handbag during those scenes where love erupts. This campaign photographed and directed by Inez & Vinoodh repeats almost word for word, shot by shot, some of the film’s original sequences, withPenélope Cruz, a living legend of the film world and CHANEL ambassador since 2018. And Brad Pitt, a cult actor who, with much delicacy, embodies the somewhat daunted, blushing man. Their characters shudder, traversed by emotion, skin tingling with goosebumps. Penélope Cruz’s hand tightens on her bag, discreetly, as if to hide concern. Her fingers caress the quilted leather, we hear the sound of the clasp turning, and notice the chain over the shoulder… Instantly identifiable with its perfect silhouette, modern and rectangular, the iconic CHANEL bag and its impeccable allure that makes it so unique and desirable. The bag we see in Claude Lelouch’s film was actually Anouk Aimée’s own bag, her favourite one, which she wore both on and off screen.Placed on the table in a hotel restaurant, between the man and the woman, the legendary bag symbolises everything that, at some point in our lives, gives us the courage to assert our deepest desires. A unique and special moment. The bag conveys our audacity, the audacity to finally become the heroine of our own lives.On screen, this legendary bag radiates a fragrance, a trilogy of emotions: fantasy, audacity, freedom. It’s as if there were no longer any boundaries between life and fiction. PHOTOGRAPHS BY INEZ AND VINOODHAll rights reserved CHANEL  www.chanel.com

Massproductions Introduces the Harry Stool With a Striking New Red Finish 4:05 PM Wednesday, April 10, 2024 Harry draws its aesthetics from traditional Japanese woodworking techniques and characteristic Torii gates. The stool, made of laminated oak, consists of two parts held together with solid oak wedges. “There are few iconic structures like the red Torii gates in Kyoto. When we followed Chris’ thought process with his design, it was easy to imagine red as the new finish on Harry,” explains Magnus Elebäck, CEO and Creative Director at Massproductions. “I wanted to create a product in laminated wood with simple shapes. During the process, I struggled to solve the joining of the seat with the base. Since the laminated oak is quite thin, it was difficult to use glue or screws. Eventually, I came up with the idea of wooden wedges, which gave the stool a nice tactile feel,” says Chris Martin, Design Director at Massproductions. With its stripped-down and functional design, Harry fits as both a stool, footrest, or side table.
