Versace is…VERSACE!!! Well, what else you say about a brand that is a benchmark in itself. Letting us live life king size yet again, the famous luxury house is celebrating the festive season with the Stone Palace Collection. A combination of beauty with technology and utility, this unique collection of tiles has been done up extensively in porcelain stone.

A collaborative venture by Gianni Versace and the ceramic tile industry mogul Gardenia-Orchidea, this eclectic decor design is available in two different surface finishes. In other words, the collection can be readily used for your kitchen, in the garden or the living room.

Each square in the design has been put with the utmost thought and feel that will lend a new class to your home. Agreed that it will come a wee bit expensive considering the two big names attached, but then it’s worth the “oohs” and “aahs” you shall definitely earn thanks to the gorgeous tile landscape housed under your roof. So, go ahead, splurge and create a beautiful home environment.

The mention of Versace is enough to get the idea of the product that could be mentioned which without doubt belongs to the upper crust. And Donatella Versace is never one to skimp on excess. Known for famously stating “more is more,” the designer has just created what appears to be one of the world’s most luxury perfumes. Despite the threat of a worldwide recession Donatella’s new fragrance will retail at $2,100.

The 3.4-oz. bottle of the perfume is covered with hand-stitched white leather and it comes in a leather box with silver and gold details. Both the sheath and the box bear metal plates bear the words “Gianni Versace Couture”, in tribute to Donatella’s brother. The formula boasts citrus accents of bergamot and mandarin blended with red berries and tangerines. There’s a floral feel too with jasmine, heliotrope and almond blossom tones. The base is muskier as Tonka bean is combined with patchouli heart and sandalwood. If the ingredients themselves are heavenly singly, what fragrance would be of their infusion?

In order to give the the pricey eau de parfum something of a limited edition feeling, it won’t be widely available, just a 100 pieces. Although there are plans for more to be created upon request. It will be launched in November in Europe and in the US in December.
