There’s no better time than now to discover your signature scent.

A signature scent is much more than just an accessory. It can have the power to mirror your personality, and act as a silent introduction to the world. In the world of luxury fragrances, where scents are as multifarious as they are exquisite, one brand has stood the test of time by crafting olfactory masterpieces that tantalize the senses and embody ultimate refinement: KILIAN Paris.

A brand steeped in romance, sophistication, sex appeal and unparalleled craftsmanship, KILIAN Paris has captured the hearts—and noses—of fragrance aficionados across the world. Founded in 2007 by none other than Kilian Hennessy—a scion of the illustrious Hennessy cognac dynasty—the brand brings together the worlds of fine spirits and fine fragrances in a way that is nothing short of intoxicating. It’s no wonder KILIAN Paris scents have enamoured two of the most influential beauty and lifestyle icons of our time: Beyoncé and Rihanna, the It girls of all It girls, who are known to smell delicious and desirable. Now, it’s your chance to smell as heavenly as your favourite icons because their signature fragrances are making a rare appearance in Sephora’s upcoming Holiday Savings Event from Oct. 27 through Nov. 6.


The reigning queen of the music industry, Beyoncé, is synonymous with power and elegance. So it was no surprise when an anonymous source shared that the singer, while on her Renaissance World Tour, made a late-night shopping pitstop to pick up a bottle of KILIAN Paris Angels’ Share—a perfume she also happened to be wearing that day. Her choice from KILIAN Paris’ impressive collection is a scent that reflects her magnetic charisma and captivating energy.

Part of KILIAN Paris’ The Liquors collection, Angels’ Share is a warm, spicy, rich and complex fragrance that contains the essence of cognac—a nod to Kilian Hennessy’s heritage—which lends its natural caramel colour. Unfolding like a well-scripted symphony, Angels’ Share opens with cognac oil upon a blend of oak absolute, cinnamon essence and tonka bean absolute, while the scent’s long-lasting notes of sandalwood, praline and vanilla make for an absolutely divine finish. The cherry on top? Angels’ Share also comes as a travel spray so that you can channel your inner Beyoncé on the go.


Rihanna has been a fashion and beauty icon ever since she hit the scene and has always been known for her bold style and sensual allure—a trendsetter worth watching. Her fondness for KILIAN Paris Love Don’t Be Shy is only natural; it embodies both her confidence and her irresistible charm.

An ode to Kilian Hennessy’s cheerful and unconventional motto, “Don’t be shy,” Love Don’t Be Shy isn’t just a fragrance; it’s an intoxicating love story in a bottle. Imploring you at the opening with whispers of sweet orange blossom absolute, the fragrance follows through with a dance between juicy honeysuckle and plush rose as luscious marshmallow sugar accord tangles up all your senses. With every spritz of Love Don’t Be Shy, inhibitions melt away and desire takes centre stage. Also available as a travel spray, Love Don’t Be Shy will transport you and whoever you’re around to a place as exhilarating as a stolen kiss—the ball is in your court.

Whether you’re drawn to the allure of Love Don’t Be Shy, the rich and complex layers of Angels’ Share, or another fan favourite like KILIAN Paris Princess—a flirty, gourmand blend of warm ginger, green tea and marshmallow—or you simply want to explore the brand’s iconic range of elixirs by way of its Mini Perfume Icons Sampler Set, the time is now.

You can embrace the luxurious world of KILIAN Paris by immersing yourself in any scent you desire during the Sephora Holiday Savings Event, from Oct. 27 to Nov. 6. With perks ranging from 10 to 20 per cent off depending on your Beauty Insider tier, this is your golden ticket to experience the opulent fragrances that have captivated the senses of icons like Rihanna and Beyoncé.
