American fashion designer Douglas Hannant recently unveiled an exciting new facet to his growing portfolio. With the addition of his first fragrance - Douglas Hannant De Robert Piguet, Hannant continues to development into a full lifestyle brand.   For the past 15 years Douglas Hannant the collection, has built a loyal following of designer clients who appreciate classic fashion references with a modern, sensual approach.DOUGLAS HANNANT - F/W 2011   

This Parfum is the perfect extension of Hannant's collection.  Like the ruffle of a silk blouse, or the ruching of a fine wool gabardine dress against her skin, this  alluring combination of Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Sandalwood, & White Musk makes a woman feel feminine, sexy, and sophisticated. 

To embark on the challenging task of creating a parfum, team Hannant turned to a storied French Parfumer and Couturier - Robert Piquet.   Piquet himself was instrumental in shaping the world of Haute Couture.   Having trained under the Legendary designer Paul Poiret in the early 1930's, Piguet would in turn be mentor to the biggest names in fashion from DOUGLAS HANNANTJames Gallanos, to Christian Dior himself.  Piguet's fashion house closed in the 50's, but his parfum legacy lives on today with a select collection of scents.   What a perfect partner for DH to choose as his link to the world of Parfum and EDP. 

Hannant is definitely a man with a plan.   The house has consistently grown division after division from Bridal to Lingerie and now - Parfum.   The big news last year was the unveiling of the designers Flagship boutique in New York at The Plaza Hotel.   The perfect setting for this American Classic.

Douglas Hannant De Robert Piguet is available at Douglas Hannant at The Plaza, Saks 5th Avenue in New York, and Neiman Marcus locations nationwide.
