The latest scent from Prada is Paradigme, a masculine fragrance that blends resinous woody notes of Peru balm, benzoin resin, musk, and guaiac wood with vibrant bergamot and dual geranium extracts. Green, floral, woody and smoky, it’s an addictive scent that is defined by one unexpected structure: the reverse pyramid.
For the launch of the new Paradigme fragrance, the brand unveiled the Paradigme pop-up, attended by brand ambassador Win Metawin. The pop-up experience is an immersive journey in the new Paradigme scent, designed to allow guests to indulge their senses fully. The space itself draws inspiration from the bottle’s distinctive green hue and architectural silhouette, and is packed with activities and photo ops galore. Stop by to take pictures with the newsstand and take home a personalised Prada ‘Fanzine’ and crossword puzzle once you’ve completed the journey.
The Prada Paradigme pop-up is open at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur’s Main Entrance until 28 September. Prada Paradigme is available in all Prada Beauty stores at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, The Exchange TRX and Midvalley Megamall.

That time of the year is once again here—Le Labo has officially brought back its City Exclusive collection in stores nationwide. For the unfamiliar, Le Labo’s City Exclusive collection is a tribute to the brand’s favourite cities around the world, from London to New York to Hong Kong, and beyond. These scents are, for most of the year, exclusive to the city that they’re from—no exception. But every September, and only for September, these creations make their way across the world so you can explore them.
This year, the collection has grown, welcoming the new Kyoto City Exclusive into the mix, Osmanthus 19. An ethereal, sensual scent, Osmanthus 19 pairs its titular flower with gorgeous notes of incense, lavender, and woody resins to evoke the nuances of the city.
The City Exclusive collection is available at Le Labo stores nationwide.
AsterSpring’s new limited-edition facial is here to pep your skin up
In our fast-paced world, our skin is constantly in battle. Everything from excessive screen time to environmental damage can cause the signs of premature ageing to manifest, and sometimes one just needs a helping hand to set things right. Enter the Exosome Youth Therapy, a novel facial treatment designed to combat modern stressors on the skin.
This 90-minute facial works through bacterial and pro-resolution technology and a vegan exosome complex sourced from Lactobacillus to repair compromised skin barriers, restore skin firmness, and rejuvenate the skin from the inside out.. All in all, the treatment balances skincare and science to deliver a potent dose of calm, bounce and moisture to tired and worn-out skin—the perfect pick-me-up as the winter months approach.
AsterSpring’s Exosome Youth Therapy is now available in Malaysia on a preorder basis from October at AsterSpring centres (RM1,488) and AsterSpring Signature centres (RM1,588).
