Sinner: the new chic hotel in Paris

Sinner - Deluxe room

Sinner is located in the heart of the lively, eclectic Marais. As it reveals its own take on the city, it shares its vision of Parisian style, which is a true departure from long-established traditions. Sinner pushes back boundaries. It captures an irreverence without renouncing the luxury and elegance which characterize the capital’s nest addresses. At Sinner, for the first time, religious heritage, history, glamour, and mystery all mingle within a unique hotel. Sinner sees things a little differently, and doesn’t do anything the ordinary way. You'll find 43 rooms and suites, an ethnic restaurant and a spa. The interior design is signed Tristan Auer.

Introducing the Oris Big Crown ProPilot X Calibre 115

Oris Big Crown ProPilot X Calibre 115

A new halo watch from Oris has emerged in the form of the Big Crown ProPilot X Calibre 115. It's a watch that's very different from any other Oris, and that even includes the other models in the Big Crown line up. The ProPilot X uses the Caliber 115, a brand new in-house superlative movement, and all the galvanized surfaces of the mainplate and bridges are entirely visible thanks to the skeleton architecture. This watch puts every single component on full display, and when you learn of the technological innovations it's packed with, like a 10 day power reserve, you're going to want to have a look around inside the watch. That's when the skeleton aspect of the watch becomes less of a novelty and more of a window into a watch that's meant to chart a new course for Oris.

Alien arty edition, the new Mugler perfume

Alien Collector by Mugler

Alien is an ode to diversity; we are legion and our differences unite us. As they mystically intermingle by chance, 5 colors proliferate all the nuances on the Alien talisman bottle leaving a trail of delicate floral jasmine, woody and amber notes. Every bottle is unique! A fragrance for women from the Amber-Woody-Floral olfactive family with notes of Sambac jasmine, Cashmeran wood and white amber. Very nice...

The Newt in Somerset Hotel & Spa has just opened

The Newt in Somerset hotel and spa

The Newt in Somerset captures the essence of a Georgian country home. Its bucolic setting inspires a garden-led menu in the restaurant, and garden-scented treatments in the Spa. Guests are encouraged to embrace country living and explore the Estate, while enjoying home comforts and superb service. It incorporates a garden visitor attraction with cultivated gardens, ancient woodland, orchards, cyder cellar, restaurants and farm shops, which are open to the public. Throughout the hotel and gardens, the past is brought to life or reimagined by offsetting heritage elements with contemporary design, styling and architecture. Some structures, like the Parabola and main house, are original and still intact after centuries. There are 23 bedrooms across the main house and its Stable Yard, each varying in design. Terrific!

New Pershing 140: the biggest thrill in Pershing’s history

Pershing 140

The project’s philosophy is based on the will to maintain Pershing’s unequalled performance, albeit with different class weights and dimensions: those of a superyacht. The hull platform was specifically designed for high performance, featuring excellent hydrodynamic capabilities at high speeds and the propulsion of 4 MTU 16V2000 M96L engines, each of 2,600 HP, thus achieving the target of taking the first 43.30-metre LOA Pershing superyacht to a top speed of 38 knots. it is also the first to feature a raised cockpit directly connected to the sun deck; the first to have an owner-dedicated area on the main deck and the first to maximise the enjoyability of all the decks and outdoor areas.
