Versace’s new fragrance embodies strength, knowledge and kindness, paying tribute to the Greek God of love.

Introducing Eros Energy, the new woody citrus fragrance for him from Versace featuring superstar Channing Tatum.

Versace Eros Energy is inspired by the breathtaking beauty of the mediterranean coastline and deeply connected to the summer lifestyle of the house. The freshness of the scenery, the wildness of the air and the luxuriousness of a Versace vacation.

The powerful sillage and long-lasting presence of the fragrance symbolise the enduring power of love and beauty, while fresh waves of citrus pay homage to the breathtaking serenity of the mediterranean coastline. Playfulness and intrigue are found at the heart of the fragrance through surprising and delicious notes of pink peppercorn and sharp blackcurrant. Finally, this spirited scent is rounded off with warm green notes of patchouli and oakmoss, providing a deep and earnest tribute to the natural world.

The launch of Eros Energy is celebrated with an iconic ad campaign featuring Channing Tatum. In this new campaign, Tatum embodies Eros, the mythological God of love, in a thrilling narrative that reflects energy, passion and intensity. The visual journey follows Eros as he races against his own arrow through ever-changing landscapes, representing the different facets of the Eros fragrance collection, from the dynamic burst of Eros Energy to the cascading waters of Eros and the rugged terrain of Eros Flame. Discover Versace Eros Energy and immerse yourself in the luxurious beauty of Versace.

We shared the importance of suncare in the UK’s surfing capital!

We recently had the pleasure of attending a Sun Bum pop-up on Newquay beach for Boardmasters Festival! This year, the iconic event attracted a huge crowd of 58,000, celebrating surfing, skateboarding and music.

Sun Bum debuted at Polzeath with a giant Sonny perched on a cliff overlooking the beach, drawing the attention of festival-goers. On the beach, the excitement continued as we handed out ‘Finders Keepers Umbrellas’, which were free for anyone to take.

Cool By The Pool, SCJ, Ann’s Cottage, and our Beauty and Wellness teams engaged with attendees by offering temporary tattoos, stickers, and brochures, while also providing educational product demonstrations.

It was two days of fun and we can’t wait for next year’s event!

We recently hosted our summer party at Head Office in true Aspects style with Dough & Deer wood fired pizza and Thai Angle’s delicious street food, outdoor games, an ice cream truck and cocktails from Soul Stirrers.

It was a wonderful opportunity for the team to celebrate our achievements so far this year and spend quality time together. 

A major highlight of the day was the tombola with 55 incredible prizes generously donated by the team. The prizes ranged from extra holidays to cash prizes and spa treatments, all in support of The Jim Jackson Foundation. In total, we raised an impressive £1,216, making it our most successful to date!

We’d like to extend a huge thank you to our incredible Summer Party Committee for planning a brilliant day!

Designed as a truly immersive fragrance experience, five perfume loving journalists were invited to join us on a Scent safari, taking a deep dive into one of the most exciting fragrance capitals in the world – Paris! 

Day 1 of Scent Safari

After an early start, our first stop was Givaudan for an introduction to fragrance creation and an audience with perfumer Sonia Constant. Sonia demonstrated the unique headspace technology that she uses in the creation of her Ella K fragrances and all our guests received personalised bottles of the soon to be launched Orchid K.

Day 2 of Scent Safari

Day two started with a visit to the Jovoy boutique and an exploration of Francois Henin’s fabulous brand, Jeroboam. We were joined by perfumer Vanina Muracciole, creator of the Jeroboam fragrances. Vanina generously shared her creative process and the inspiration behind each of the fragrances. Our guests were then given free rein to explore the boutique, a real ‘kid in a sweet shop’ moment! We were then all whisked off to lunch at Lou Lou. It has a wonderful view of the Eiffel Tower for a sneak preview of an exclusive new launch.

The excitement continued with a visit to the newly opened Nishane boutique on Rue St Honoré. Brand Ambassador Alexandre Helwani was on hand to introduce the brand and the various fragrance collections. Alexandre was also our gracious host for dinner at Gigi to celebrate the launch of new fragrance Tuberoza X. 

Day 3 of Scent Safari

The next morning, our final destination was Hotel El Dorado. Alexandre J team hosted a beautiful lunch in honour of their newest creation, Butterfly. An added delight was the presentation of handmade chocolates by artisan chocolatier, Edwart Paris. Creator Edwin Yansané joined us to explain the process of making perfumed chocolates, which we were all able to try as we smelled the fragrance. 

The trip was a huge success and we have received lots of amazing feedback and of course, brilliant coverage for all our brands and perfumers. Well done to the PR team and the amazing services they offer. We really hope to be able to do this again!

Pour Femme

Michael Kors Pour Femme is a floral woody musk fragrance that embodies luxury, modern glamour and sensuality. The scent opens with a refreshing burst of mandarin, pink peppercorn and blackcurrant.

As the fragrance settles, a Creamy vanilla, seductive musk and patchouli leaves. Creating a deep, lingering sensuality that is both bold and unforgettable, just like the brand.

Pour Homme

Michael Kors Pour Homme is a woody spicy citrus fragrance designed to evoke joy, warmth and the invigorating energy of the ocean. The top notes of bergamot, pink peppercorn and lavandin provide a vibrant and provocative opening. This leads to a heart of sea wave accord, clary sage and geranium, offering a fresh and masculine aroma. The base notes of patchouli, vetiver and grey amber add a warm, velvety finish, making this scent powerful and long-lasting. Much like everything from Michael Kors, Pour Homme is a blend of sophistication and vitality.
