The New Tiffany Titan Collection by Pharrell Williams Expands With Freshwater Pearls And Lustrous Diamonds
Initially introduced with 18-carat yellow gold and black titanium in all-metal and diamond iterations, the Tiffany Titan collection by Tiffany & Co. and Pharrell Williams now welcomes the addition of luminous freshwater pearl and diamond pieces. These new creations are inspired from the trident of Poseidon, the mythical ruler of the sea and King of Atlantis—a subtle allusion to the Virginia Beach community, also known as Atlantis, where Williams grew up. Standout pieces include a statement necklace embellished with freshwater pearls and roughly one carat of diamonds, alongside a bracelet made with more than two carats of diamonds. Both pieces are interspersed with 18-carat gold spike rondelles and pearls, exhibiting a strong visual contrast. The new Tiffany Titan collection is now available online and at Tiffany & Co. stores worldwide.

Luce Di Rosa By Acqua Di Parma Is A Gender-Neutral Fragrance That’s Luminously Sophisticated
Acqua di Parma’s newest addition to its Signatures of the Sun fragrance collection is Luce di Rosa, a scent that is as mellifluous as vibrant beams of sunshine on your skin on a glorious day. The gender-neutral fragrance opens with a citrus blend of bergamot and mandarin, heightened by black pepper, pink pepper CO2 extract and cardamom. Its heart is profoundly fresh, thanks to Rose from Bulgaria—harvested from flowers in the Kazanlak region, to be precise—as well as geranium. Luce di Rosa’s base is ensconced with essence of vetiver, guaiac wood and cedarwood. Luce di Rosa is also available in a Jewel Masterpiece Edition and Tray, designed by jewellery designer Annelise Michelson. The bottle cap of the Jewel Masterpiece Edition and the Tray are crafted from gold-plated brass and resemble fabric rippling gracefully. Complete your collection with the Luce di Rosa Hand & Body Wash and Body Cream.
