Details: Smoky mirrors everywhere—on the walls, lining the built-in wall-niches, and on the freestanding showcases throughout the 3,000 square foot long retail corridor. With our vividly colored fragrance boxes displayed and reflected multiple times throughout this gallery-space, the overall effect is kaleidoscopic. The centerpiece curved lacquer-lipstick-red bar and checkout desk. A 16 foot obling consultation and custom blending table. Gi-normous crystal chandeliers, several encased in openwork iron gyres, and matching standing lamps. A mirrored library. A darkened recess with its own vanity stool for perusing our range of Swarovski crystal-studded bottles. A candle table. Velvet-soft sand-colored carpeting, to match the sand-colored ceiling. Lacquer-red and white wingbacks and Louis XV-style side chairs. On the back wall, a banner depicting a Berber woman’s face–this eclectic touch is a beloved holdover from our previous interior.

And lest we overlook—just outside our front door, Bond Street is paved with cobblestones, as it’s been for well over a century. The walkways of Versailles, in case you’re wondering, are cobblestoned too—one of the reasons we chose this space in the first place.
