Job description

Company Description For more than 60 years Parfums Givenchy has perpetuated the values of its founder, Hubert de Givenchy, releasing fragrances, makeup and skincare products that define free, assertive and bold women. Parfums Givenchy fragrances embody the brand’s Fearless Classic vision, fusing genres and revealing unexpected twists. Inspired by the avant‑garde spirit and sensuality of Givenchy Couture creations, Nicolas Degennes, Makeup and Color Artistic Director since 1999, continues to reveal the inventiveness synonymous with Givenchy. In 1970, Kenzo Takada instilled a touch of jungle exoticism at the heart of Paris, in Galerie Vivienne. With his colorful prints and his self‑professed creative freedom, Kenzo upturned the couture diktats of the time by merrily breaking the rules. In keeping with this cheerful and colorful heritage, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon took over the artistic direction of the House of Kenzo in 2011. The brand’s first feminine fragrance, called Kenzo, was born in 1988. Then followed a series of creations with a unique and original identity that made a strong impression on the world of perfumery. They all tell an optimistic story and play with a mix of multicultural codes to savor again and again. The bottles themselves are symbols of pure refinement and emblems of the brand’s values. LVMH Fragrance Brands invites you today to join its North America teams. LVMH Fragrance Brands is part of the LVMH Group.
