"Beauté Prestige International corresponds perfectly to the spirit of the Alaïa house," said the designer. "I am delighted to work with them in launching this new project. I have total confidence in Beauté Prestige International to accompany me in creating a perfume that interprets my work and my world." Rémy Gomez, Beauté Prestige's chief executive officer, called Alaïa "a sculptor, a virtuoso of the cut; his dresses are a 'second skin.'"About Azzedine Alaïa:
Tunisian-born Paris-based Alaïa has been creating seductive, curve-hugging clothes since he first opened his own Parisian atelier in the late Seventies. Alaïa's fashion education began at the École des Beaux-Arts in Tunisia, where after graduation, he started working as a dressmaker's assistant. In 1957, he moved to Paris and spent many years under the guidance of established fashion houses including Christian Dior, Guy Laroche, and Thierry Mugler.
