Sirens E02 (Talons)

When Devon (Meghann Fahy) realises that surrendering to Kiki’s influence is the best she can do to help her own sister Simone (Kiki’s personal assistant), she’s up for a wild ride. The over-controlling billionaire decides what clothes and accessories Devon will wear while staying at the Cliff House, and packs a dressing table with fragrances, cosmetics and skincare, too. Nothing is actually in tune with Devon’s style and personality, but that is not the point: once one enters Kiki’s orbit, they have to passively accept her choices and decisions.

From left to right, here’s what I can see on the table.

The blush pink bottle is Givenchy Irresistible, a musky rose fragrance by Fanny Bal, Dominique Ropion and Anne Flipo, launched in 2020.

Next, there’s a Caron fragrance in the trademark ring round bottle. The front label cannot be read, though, so we don’t know what fragrance it contains.

It’s unclear whether Givenchy is Kiki’s brand of choice for fragrances, but she surely loves it for her guests. Half hidden among several bottles there’s L’Interdit eau de parfum [1], a white floral creation by Dominique Ropion, Anne Flipo and Fanny Bal, launched in 2018.

There’s also the Rouge version of the aforementioned eau de parfum. This was launched in 2021.

On the right side of the table there are several skincare products. Among them, the eye and expression cream Genaissance de la Mer™ (in the jar) and a bottle of La Mer The Essential Tonic.

Even though the screencap above is blurry, it clearly shows the presence of three Givenchy jars containing loose powder.

The small one on the left is Blush Prisme Libre in Mousseline Lilas.

Just below there’s a jar of Prisme Libre loose powder in Mousseline Acidulée.

On the far right side of the table there’s another jar of Prisme Libre loose powder in Organza Ambré.

[1] The original L’Interdit is a floral aldehyde fragrance by Francis Fabron launched in 1957. It was created in 1956 for Audrey Hepburn, who initially opposed Hubert de Givenchy’s decision to market it; when she finally lifted her ban, the designer named it after her forbidding. As a matter of fact, the French word “interdit” means “forbidden” in English.

The claim in the 1957 advert perfectly sums up its origin.

MDNA SKIN (2014)

In 2014 Madonna launched the skincare line MDNA SKIN in Japan, first as a limited-time exclusive store in Tokyo and later as a country-wide release. In March of the same year she released an introductory video, where a very interesting perfume find can be seen on a glass shelf. 

It’s a Caron splash bottle, used since the 1930s by the French brand to house several fragrances. There’s no front label on it, so there’s no way for us to know what it contains. Spotting such an historical design, in the presence of Madonna no less, is a treat, though.

The tall rectangular bottle next to it is another historical product – the revitalising essence Eudermine by Shiseido, first launched in 1897.

La baie des anges (1963)

Jackie (Jeanne Moreau) has finally reached Monte Carlo, where she’s ready to take the local casino by storm. We’ve seen that a massive bottle of Weil Antilope sits on her bathroom shelf, but what’s on her vanity?

On the right side of the table there’s a tin can of Max Factor Primitif talc. This was an ancillary product of a chypre floral fragrance launched in 1956.  

There are several make-up items, too. Their packaging is quite basic, but among them I couldn’t miss another product by Max Factor – the Pan-Stik foundation.

Materialists (2025)

The toothpaste in Harry’s bathroom is Marvis Anise Mint.

Reading the front label of the fragrance bottle is not possible, but this is from the line I profumi di Firenze by the Italian brand Spezierie Palazzo Vecchio.

Last, the yellow can belongs to the Acqua di Parma Barbiere line: it’s the shaving gel.

Thanks to Cédric for the fragrance id.
