CHANEL Unveils Their First Fragrance and Beauty Boutique in Connecticut, in Downtown Westport.
Known for being impeccably dressed and delivering empowering words of wisdom, Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel once said, “Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself.”
“Adornment, what a science! Beauty, what a weapon! Modesty, what elegance!” the founder of the French luxury fashion house went on.
The legendary couturier, known for her exquisite couture and more approachable prêt-à-porter, iconic bags and ropes of namesake pearls, was a gamechanger in the fragrance world in the 1920s. As Chanel once said so poignantly, “A woman who doesn’t wear perfume has no future.”
For her debut fragrance, Chanel created the everlastingly-popular Chanel No. 5, one of the first perfumes to be named after a fashion designer, and its name is a tribute to her lucky number five. In less than a decade it became the world’s bestselling perfume and, to this day, a new bottle is purchased every 30 seconds.
Suffice to say the commitment to fragrance and beauty is long withstanding at the House of CHANEL. This month CHANEL will unveil its newest stand-alone fragrance and beauty location in Westport. The 1,640-square-foot boutique features the full range of CHANEL fragrance, makeup and skincare products, along with an exclusive selection of CHANEL eyewear.
The boutique’s distinctive sleek black-and-white design, which recalls the codes of the house, emphasizes the modernity of CHANEL, and offers a one-of-a-kind shopping environment.
In the immersive makeup and skincare area anchored by a centerpiece discovery table, guests are invited to explore the latest CHANEL launches as well as classic and iconic products.
The key focus in the store during the opening will be the new Rouge Allure Velvet Nuit Blanche lipsticks. These highly concentrated pigments deliver intense color and wear like a second skin. The soft-focus microspheres combine with ultrafine pearly particles for a luminous-matte finish. The lipstick is presented in the iconic ROUGE ALLURE black and golden click case.
The boutique will also offer its evergreen bestselling skincare and fragrance products as well such as the iconic CHANEL No. 5 fragrance, their Sublimage La Crème and more.
The space will highlight collections from the CHANEL Makeup Creation Studio, skincare from the CHANEL Research & Technology laboratory in Pantin, France, and fragrances from CHANEL In-House Perfumer Creator Olivier Polge.
