Borntostandout: The New Filthy Musk, L’Animal, and Naked Laundry Fragrances
Borntostandout releases three new fragrances: Filthy Musk, L’Animal, and Naked Laundry. Filthy Musk is a raw, untamed, primal musk. It’s the musk of skin against skin, warmed by a night of abandon, lingering on the sheets long after the lovers have gone. Opening notes of pineapple and honey pave the way for an intoxicating and carnal musk, intensified by the heat of nutmeg and the earthy depth of patchouli. Jasmine and spices add another dimension, while vanilla and caramel emerge before amber and tonka bean leave a warm, lingering trail.
Naked Laundry is decadent and vintage. Aldehydes and mimosa meet warm skin, animalistic instinct, sparkling mandarin, the classic fizz of aldehydes, and the unexpected warmth of white caramel and honey. Absolute tonka bean, rich and sensual, blends with the animalistic musk of tonkitone, finishing with a warm embrace of amber woods, grounding the fragrance in an aura of lingering mystery.
L’Animal is an olfactory exploration of our primal instincts, a fragrant journey into the wild and raw nature of human desire, encapsulated in a sophisticated yet provocative blend. Opening with a wave of golden rum, it envelops us with a touch of nutmeg and creamy almond paste. The velvety softness of a suede overdose intertwines with heliotrope, a whisper of Mugane, earthy gaiac wood, sandalwood, a hint of honey, and a trace of vanilla.

Hair Trends for SS25 Explained by Davide Diodovich
It’s time to highlight craftsmanship. It’s time to give new energy and freshness to hairstyles, creating looks that are natural yet speak to the craftsmanship that elevates and adds structure. At the Genny SS25 show, we chatted with Davide Diodovich, Key Hairstylist and Davines Ambassador, about this, taking inspiration from the runway hairstyles: “For Genny this season, we wanted to transform the hair, lightening it with a soft part and a simple ponytail; on several short heads, we used molding paste to create texture, along with some hairspray.”
The theme of “flat” and sculptural heads is the trend for the upcoming season, as seen during fashion week: hair plays a co-starring role alongside makeup in the overall look, bringing a new sense of freshness and cleanliness. We’re seeing fringes and layers in haircuts, along with bright and full colors; naturalness finds its full strength in this season, which promises to revisit minimalism without ever disrespecting it.

The Beauty Trends for the Upcoming Season According to KIKO Milano, Straight from MFW SS25
Two Different Beauty Looks United by the Same Must-Haves by KIKO Milano. In the backstage of N21 and Missoni for MFW SS25, retro vibes and naturalness took center stage alongside the brands’ respective new collections.
Starting with N21, with Lucia Pica as the key MUA, she embraced the ’60s aesthetic of Alessandro Dell’Acqua’s designs by creating a makeup look focused on the eyes: a flawless base and a captivating gaze, achieved with the 24h Panoramic Volume Mascara, applied for a bold effect. Brushed-up eyebrows and glossy lips complete the daring and self-confident baby doll look, just like the N21 woman.
At Missoni, minimalism is key—at least when it comes to makeup. Here, the colors and combinations of the garments, along with expert craftsmanship rich in detail, do the talking. For the beauty look, a natural and radiant base, defined brows, and wet-look lips create a sophisticated and chic aesthetic for the woman who faces everyday life with effortless elegance.
