2 | Grace by Grace Coddington [via NY Times]: Grace Coddington launched her firts perfume called “Grace”. “It smells primarily of roses, a scent Ms. Coddington associates with childhood (“I’ve come from a trail of roses,” she said) and now can see her through to old age. (She is 74.) It is being produced by the perfume branch of the Comme des Garçons empire, whose resident nose, Christian Astuguevieille, developed the scent with Ms. Coddington and encouraged her to spray it into her hair.” The bottle is inspired by her cats. “That this vision found its focus on a cat should come as no surprise to anyone who has followed Ms. Coddington’s career. “I’m obsessed with a cat, to a boring degree,” Ms. Coddington said. Ms. Coddington’s fragrance will come in two sizes: a 50-milliliter size for $110 and 100 milliliters for $145. When it arrives on April 19, it will be sold not only at Dover Street Market New York, the multibrand concept store owned by Comme des Garçons (and its Tokyo, London and Beijing stores thereafter), but also on GraceCoddington.com, Ms. Coddington’s new website”.
