Some time ago, Charlotte told you about my encounter with the sublime Louise Bourgoin, here.... How surreal, how beautiful this woman is. I had the chance to chat with her for the release of the new Fragrance: Jeu d'Amour by Kenzo. I was, I admit, a little impressed, and it's not easy for me to find the right words to get her attention. After all, she'd just spent the day talking to journalists from all over the world about the perfume launch and her new role as muse.

Louise tells me it's been a long day, as she hardly ever wears make-up, has no particular beauty fix, and even less specific creams or shampoos. She was brought up that way, her parents having taught her that true beauty needs no artifice. She's even more impressive for her naturalness and spontaneity.

We also talk about her role as muse; for her, it's truly an honor to be able to be the face of a fragrance. "All great actresses become the face of a cosmetics brand at one time or another", from the fine arts to the big screen, via the weather girl, Louise Bourgoin seems to have reached the ultimate level of glamour, the role of muse....

What's more, as the conversation goes on, I discover that the mini-film was shot before the perfume was created, and that Louise was able to supervise the juice's conception. A fragrance in her image, fresh, feminine and a little heady.

I find the film interesting and different from all the other commercials we've seen. Indeed, it's one of the rare occasions when director Patrick Guedj doesn't recount a "love at first sight" encounter between a woman and a man. Instead, he shows a game of seduction between two lovers around a sort of strip poker, punctuated by the actress's funny, adorable facial expressions. To discover or rediscover the film, go to here ! Special mention to "l'amoureux"!

I hope you like my little design set... Hugs and kisses!
