Guerlain Comes to Town!

The Guerlain perfume house was founded in 1828 by Pierre-François Pascal Guerlain in Paris. The business has been passed down from generation to generation till it was purchased by the LVMH group in 1994.

Now, one of the oldest French perfumes houses in the world has come to Nigeria.

I have to say that I never widely associated Guerlain with make up and as such was slightly surprised by their impressive make up line.

Here are some pictures from the event, thankfully there were no photographer shenanigans at this event. Yep! It was that exclusive, everyone was on their best behavior!
