Daisy Marc Jacobs from Coty Prestige won the fragrance of the year in the women's luxe category at last night's FiFi awards in New York City. More than 900 industry executives attended the event, held at the Park Avenue Armory. Coty took home five awards during the event.
Vera Wang received the Hall of Fame award. Ms. Wang was chosen by The Fragrance Foundation’s board of directors for her extraordinary ingenuity and dedication, which has contributed not only to her company’s success, but to the fragrance industry as a whole.
She opened her flagship store on Manhattan’s famed Madison Avenue in 1990, introducing fashion to the bridal industry with revolutionary designs and refined detailing. Since then she has expanded her collections to include ready-to-wear, contemporary sportswear, evening wear, intimate apparel, footwear, eyewear, china and crystal, silver and gifts, fine paper, mattresses, her first book, Vera Wang On Weddings, and fragrance. Vera Wang has introduced many successful fragrances, such as Vera Wang, Sheer Veil, Bouquet, and Truly Pink fragrances as well as the most recent introduction of Vera Wang Princess and Flower Princess.
