From stilettos to the scent

Famous thanks to numerous appearances on the red carpet, the designer Jimmy Choo heels after daring, bags and sunglasses cult star rocketed into the world of fragrances. To want the first eau de parfum was Tamara Mellon, British designer-entrepreneur, inspired by a moment of his love story. While he was in Venice to choose the church of her marriage, she found her husband (the heiresses Matthew Mellon) an ashtray that still retains the Murano (union, however, is long over).


The object is now the bottle of fruity-chypre essence an agreement with the initial green, sensual impulses tiger orchid, patchouli sinking Indonesian final in the sweetness of the caramel. From stilettos to her first perfume: no one has ever said that the combination could lead to bad thoughts? No, because our customers we associate with a brand of accessories, the details that make the difference.

And a perfume helps. It is another of his creation for women rich and powerful? I wish it were all our customers when they wear one of our accessories. In this case, I start to tell you that his notes are so sensual that give security to those who want to be feminine. This too is power.

She became the envy of a woman: her secret? Follow your instinct and daring. Be determined, and if you fail to move forward. And do not read newspapers and gossip. I do so when they talk about me. Envy? I think it is a poison and if you are jealous of someone or something, sooner or later becomes intoxicating.

He received honors Officer of the British Empire will change anything for you? I was pleased to meet Queen Elizabeth for a moment, but in the end nothing changes: I always have to travel to monitor our activities. My team of eight people is always the same. But it was a great satisfaction.

Especially now that he lives in New York ... The transfer was a personal choice and I like it because it throws my brand (and me) in an international atmosphere. His daughter Araminta what you think of the mother in your career? It's still small but is beginning to understand everything I do and I must say that it is proud of me.

The last fun thing you did? New Year's Eve we went to Saint Barths. He has a tendency to recommend for 2011? Investing in the stock of the collection "24:7", are the first and are all produced in Italy: will be good for life. In that area of the body suggests wearing her fragrance? Behind the neck if you're in a hurry.

Or, as I do, create a cloud of perfume to spend to stay excited and seduced by the scent. Prior to this, what was his favorite wood? I have different ranges: I liked Joy by Jean Patou Piguet's Fracas and I have great respect for the fragrance of Diptyque. In America, received any difference or preference in a fragrance? American women prefer the scent of flowers, but the lighter flowers.

European ones are more sensual, for example, I know many who love the patchouli. She produces in Italy, do you like in our country? The food is the best I know. And even when I'm abroad I try to eat Italian. In 2011, the brand will make its 15 years has provided a special collection for its customers? There will be the "Crystals", glittering stiletto, very precious, very seductive.

It is not a line for all women and that is why I wanted the photographer-artist Marilyn Minter realized an incredible shooting that made sense of value of these creations. She was one of the first to wear shoes to the stars of the world? Do you think this system is still valid? You can do this today but if the product does not apply or do not like women (those who are not on the red carpet every night), there is no future.

Collect photographs of Araki and posed nude for Terry Richardson does not care about consequences? I think people should judge me for products I do not for an artistic image that ultimately revealed little, if it relates to the picture of Terry. His idea of seduction was to readers of Interview.

And in the spot of her first fragrance this tell us? It seems shot in England but with photographers Inez and Vinoodh we went to America in the East Hamptons in a house with old wood. The dress is Marchesa, and has been hand painted python recovering the flakes of the perfume box. I was the model but the face is not as visible because I wanted every woman will identify with.

He loves technology? I'm not a fanatic but I just bought the BlackBerry Thorch and love it. And I confess that I also have an iPad. She goes back and forth between London and New York such as restaurants prefer the two capitals? The Lion in the Big Apple and Cecconi's in London, which will be trivial for you but it's a really good Italian restaurant.

Museums that inspire? In NYC, the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim Museum in London and the Victoria & Albert Museum. Spa and beauty center to recommend? I prefer to do everything at home with people who know me well.
