Style tip Spring 2021 with the environment and health in mind: Shoes from recovered rubber and ocean yarn, skin care & sun protection, fragrance, sunglasses
This spring, every color is the best color as long as it fits the own mood. Bright fruity colors the one day, on the other day muted tones. Skinny jeans or wide jeans is not the question. It depends on the top or jacket, coat and the personal preference to find the perfect fit. To vary jeans styles from one day to the other is the real trend.

Series 'A selection of perfumes with traveling in mind', #2: Globetrotting with Bond No.9 In the second edition of the 'A selection of perfumes with traveling in mind' series, the voyage leads through various countries and landscapes. The scent pyramid can be compared with a film sequence created from diverse scenes playing at different locations to tell one universal story: The birthplace of creativity is in the head of the ones who are inspired by other people and cultures. The olfactory story starts in 'Greenwich Village' in New York, in a small café-deli. The waiter behind the sausage, cheese, vegetables, bread counter selects the ingredients for the sandwich and asks: "American or Switzerland?" She says "No, I'm from Austria", which was the wrong answer for the sandwich but the best to start a conversation...
