Philosophy

Philosophy, founded by Cristina Carlino in 1996, is a cosmetics brand that specializes in skin care, body care and fragrances. In 2010 the company agreed to enter a partnership with Coty Inc. The company prides itself with their use of innovative technologies and science in order to develop accessible beauty products of very high quality. The products are inspired by Cristina Carlino's belief in miracles and beauty and her endless curiosity. Philosphy's face cream "hope in a jar" is a top-seller whose effectiveness has been scientifically proven. It helps reduce wrinkles and makes the skin look younger and was even recommended by plastic surgeons. Their gourmand scented bath products and their make-up collection are equally successful. A collection of body care products for babies has delighted many women who prefer quality skin care products for their little ones. The fragrance line consisting of several women's perfumes and a few unisex and men's fragrances has grown in popularity. Cristina says that perfumes should not only smell good, but fell good as well. Amen, a scent for men, is built around notes of citruses, tea and spices on a woody-musky base. Lemon, a unisex scent with plenty of citruses, is part of the scented trilogy Tea Party which consisted of three perfumes that were supposed to be layered. The brand's light floral Baby Grace is reminiscent of the smell of a baby's skin. Falling In Love, another fragrance for women, starts with sweet notes of berries. 2011's release You are Divine is a light scent with floral accords and citruses. One of the best selling fragrances of the collection is Amazing Grace which consists of prominent notes of freesia, green apple, rose, citruses, jasmine and musk. The limited summer edition Summer Grace from 2011 is built around floral notes. With sweet notes of flowers and blackcurrant the floral scent Unconditional Love has surprised many fragrance lovers with a sweet tooth. Philosophy's beauty and skin care products are sold in department stores and upmarket drugstore chain stores in the UK and the USA. Alternatively customers can order all products over the company's web site. Designer Philosophy has 59 perfumes in our fragrance base. The earliest edition was created in 1996 and the newest is from 2024. Philosophy fragrances were made in collaboration with perfumers Tanya Petrakov, Cecile Hua and Mathieu Nardin.
