Cartier Parfums has announced the launch of its Must de Cartier Gold fragrance.

Inspired by the brand’s debut Must de Cartier ever green oriental essence, the brand’s in-house perfumer Mathilde Laurent worked with Givaudan, the fragrance company that created the original, to create a new scent with a variation on jasmine, brightened with a burst of osmanthus.

The fragrance will be available nationwide from 31 August, priced at £75 (50ml) and £105 (100ml).

Prestige, pre-owned watches made affordable thanks to The Watch Expert

Watches are so huge that Vanity Fair dedicates an entire supplement to them.

A prestige watch is something many people dream of owning, but aren’t quite able to afford. Now thanks to new online retailer The Watch Expert the dream can become a reality.

TheWatchExpert.co.uk – part of jewellery chain Herbert Brown which has a 170-year High Street heritage – is dedicated to offering top quality, pre-owned Rolex, Cartier, Omega, Breitling and Tag Heuer watches at much lower prices than they were originally bought for.

For instance, an Omega Seamaster for men, manufactured in 2007, has a replacement value of £2,700, but is sold by The Watch Expert for £1,995, and a Rolex Datejust, manufactured in 1991, has a replacement value of £8,110, but is sold at more than half that price for just £3,395.

A woman’s Omega Constellation, manufactured in 2002, has a replacement value of £2,600 and is offered by The Watch Expert for £1,495, and a 2010 TAG Heuer, which has a replacement value of £1,810, is priced at just £1,350.

The Watch Expert has hundreds of stylish, pre-owned watches across a number of price brackets available at any one time, all of which come with a 12-month warranty.

What’s more, the online retailer offers the personal touch that you would enjoy in store but from the comfort and convenience of your own home. There is the opportunity to speak with watch expert David Beasley to ensure that you buy only the best watch at the best value. All interested customers need to do is send an email via TheWatchExpert.co.uk and they will receive a call back from an expert to discuss the watches of interest and answer any questions. What’s more, The Watch Expert offers a special sourcing service so if a customer already has a watch in mind, The Watch Expert will make it their business to find and refurbish it.

The Watch Expert’s David Beasley, who has 40 years’ experience of working with prestige watches, says: “In launching The Watch Expert we aim to make beautifully crafted watches more affordable. Prestige watches are generally thought of as things only the wealthy can afford, but this is no longer the case as all our pre-owned watches look, feel and work no differently to new watches, they just come at a much cheaper price.”

Sounds pretty cool to us!

Fashion and art come together to help mend broken hearts

Last night saw the greatest names from the worlds of fashion, art and music descend on Proud Camden in support of the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) ‘Mending Broken Hearts Appeal’.

The BHF Tunnel of Love party is in its second year and attracted a host of high-profile faces in support of the ground-breaking appeal that aims to give hope to millions of heart patients and their families worldwide. Fashionable guests including Alexa Chung, Daisy Lowe, Laura Bailey, Cara Delevingne, Sir Peter Blake, Katie Hillier, Patrick Grant, Mollie King, Pixie Geldof, Peaches Geldof & Tom Cohen, Sir Harold Tillman, Suki Waterhouse, Alice Temperley, Clara Paget, Miles Kane, Jacqui Ainsley, Gemma Cairney, Lara Bohinc, Little Boots, Tallulah Harlech and Hilary Alexander celebrated the work of the charity at this 1920’s-themed night featuring games, such as the Radley Roulette and performances from Frisky and Mannish and live music sets from the Broken Heart DJ’s .

The evening included auctions of fashion and striking contemporary art from Damien Hirst, Sir Peter Blake, Jim Dine, Cartier, Mulberry, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Antonio Berardi dress and Stephen Webster which raised thousands of pounds for the charity. Top British Cara Delevingne caused a bidding war during the live auction hosted by Harry Dalmeny of Sotheby’s and eventually went home with a trip to the Maldives with Soneva Fushi.

Guests were also treated to cocktails by La Maison Fontaine Absinthe and Rhum St Barth. Prosecco and wine was kindly provided by Tunnel of Love sponsors Marks & Spencer.

All of the proceeds from the Tunnel of Love party support the BHF’s Mending Broken Hearts Appeal.

At the moment, there is no cure for a broken heart. Once your heart muscle is damaged by a heart attack, it can never fully recover. But there is hope. Scientists funded by the BHF are striving to develop the technology to repair damaged heart muscle so that one day we could literally mend broken hearts within a generation. Together, we can mend broken hearts and make medical history.
