Our Special Projects Editor's Holiday Wishlist

AS29 Fine Jewellery Pave Diamond Tag Necklace

For a bit of seasonal bling, the diamond-studded gold chain and pendant by AS29 Fine Jewellery. At last, I can tap into the rap artist buried within me — Kanye East?

Armani/Casa PUMP Home Fitness Accessories / Rugiada Cocktail Mixer Collection

Over the holidays, either I get in shape at last with the fitness accoutrements by Armani/Casa (the yoga mat, skipping rope, weights and water bottle in matte black), or the pendulum swings the other way and I get the Rugiada Cocktail Mixer Collection. I leave you to guess which…

Hermès Daydream Sneaker in Rouge Oxyde

A statement shoe from the house that Hermès built – the red high-top sneaker. Casual chic.

The New Moon Crystals & Books

Be it healing crystals or soothing activity books (meditating through the act of mundane colouring) with motivational titles ("I Am Wise"), there’s always something extraordinary at The New Moon.

The newest accessory from haute perfumerie Henry Jacques blends watchmaking expertise with the art of solid perfume. We take a closer look at the Clic-Clac.

Who among us hasn't reached out for a perfume because of the delicate and beautiful bottle it's been lovingly stored in? After all, our favourite fragrances are housed like magic potions, in vials and crystal-like flasks that we proudly display on our bathroom and bedroom shelves.

So it's no surprise really that French haute perfumerie Henry Jacques is extending this courtesy to solid perfume – and in doing so, breathing new life into the ancient art.

Henry Jacques has gone beyond simply creating stunning packaging, developing an ultra-sophisticated and wholly contemporary accessory that is functional as well as stylish. Called the Clic-Clac, it will house the Maison's new collection of solid balm-like perfumes.

The gorgeous accessory is the result of over four years of research development and engineering, applying Swiss watchmaking technology in the design of its foolproof opening mechanism. Slim enough to slip into your purse and housing the perfect medium that will never spill.

“The creation of this object quickly transported us and overwhelmed us, surpassing all our expectations. Addictive for us, and fascinating for others, the Clic-Clac responds to the need of an era and a generation – a powerful response to something clearly lacking today,” says Anne-Lise Cremona, CEO of Henry Jacques.

The Clic-Clac is available in precious avant-garde materials such as titanium, carbon and gold, and is able to house any of the 50 Les Classiques solid perfume capsules. You can purchase it all, along with other standout fragrance essences, mists and the Maison's premium perfume box, at the Henry Jacques boutique at Elements Mall.

French haute parfumerie Henry Jacques has unveiled its Renaissance collection, an assemblage of rare and aromatic scents housed in striking crystal structures.

The latest gold-covered collection falls under the umbrella of Henry Jacques’ most exclusive collections, Masterpieces.

The gem-encrusted flacons are the concepts of creative director Christophe Tollemer. An expert Parisian goldsmith was also enlisted to bring the vision into reality. A renewed variation of the Jewellery collection, the Renaissance collection introduces novel couture scents that reflect the magnificence of the hand-blown crystal flacons and respective embedded stones.

Taking inspiration from Renaissance paintings, the intricate gold meshwork evokes aristocratic classicism. Available in a range of five flacon varieties, two flacons feature golden lines overlapping along the crystal curves and accentuated by brown or white diamonds. The three remaining Renaissance bottles boast detailed lacework, set with pink rubellite tourmaline or yellow citrine gemstones.

Henry Jacques is all about perfume; fragrances that mirror the many nuances of the soul and shape the way we will be remembered. As a result, only the most precious and exclusive ingredients from around the world give life to the rich perfumes housed in these decadent artefacts. Offered in two sizes, 60ml and 150ml, each flacon houses a unique scent. Without a doubt, the limited-edition Renaissance collection is a dream come true for those with a passion for haute parfumerie.
