This year, L’Oréal Luxe is closing out with a series of its most anticipated products, and they’re on their way to you. From the debut of Miu Miu Beauty with its bold and sophisticated Miutine eau de parfum, to Lancôme’s latest skincare innovation, the new Génifique lotion. The collection also features fresh interpretations of iconic fragrances: Emporio Armani’s Stronger With You Amber, a reimagining of the beloved men’s scent, and the festive, indulgent Yves Saint Laurent Libre Vanille Couture fragrance. Let’s take a closer look at what’s new and exciting from L’Oréal Luxe this year.

MIUTINE

The new irreverent fragrance by MIU MIU  

Miu Miu unveils Miutine, the new feminine fragrance that captures the essence of the Miu Miu woman: irreverent, youthful in spirit, and unconventional. Miutine is worn entirely for oneself, away from the gaze of others. Captured in a toffee-toned matelassé flacon, the scent inside reimagines a classic chypre signature with a fruity, gourmand twist. The name plays on the French word mutine, a rebel’s spirit bottled. It embodies the spirit of the Miu Miu girl: insouciant and irreverent. She knows the rules and delights in bending them. Miutine is not a statement but a knowing glance, a sweet rebellion that is light-hearted and laced with wit, a gesture made entirely for oneself. 

Miutine, created by master perfumer Dominique Ropion, is a playful yet sophisticated twist on the classic chypre fragrance. It opens with a vibrant burst of wild strawberry, specifically the Mara des Bois variety, bringing a joyful, spontaneous energy. This lively opening unfolds into a sophisticated gardenia heart, enriched with a hint of jasmine for added volume. The base is anchored by a rich gourmand accord of brown sugar and bourbon vanilla, creating a melting, addictive texture, with patchouli adding depth and refinement. Radiant and assertive, Miutine is a fragrance meant to be worn for oneself, balancing mischievous freshness with opulent sensuality. The bottle reflects Miu Miu’s most iconic codes, featuring matelassé glass inspired by the brand’s signature leather, a black-and-white label styled as a chic collar, and a sequin-like black cap that adds a touch of playful sophistication. Its chestnut hue recalls the timeless brown of Miu Miu’s leather accessories, adding a hint of nostalgia.
