KILIAN Paris

Kilian is selling it directly at last: the 10 ml is orderable at 37 dollars on the house's own shop, where the 75 ml at 150 stays marked coming soon. Sephora, which took the first American drop, is out of stock in both sizes and taking notifications instead. · 30 d ago

Libertine Parfumerie in Sydney now sells the 75 ml outright at 255 Australian dollars, on an ordinary cart rather than a waiting list, with Midnight Espresso and Sparkling Royal arriving beside it. Alla Violetta has moved with it: the listing that read pre-order through August carries a plain buy button now, while Midnight Espresso next to it is still labelled pre-order — so the shop is marking the difference. Two boutiques on two continents taking orders is what settles the launch, whatever the house's own shop has yet to open. · 19 d ago

The house has opened Sparkling Royal on its own counter — the 10 ml at 37 dollars goes into the bag, while the 150-dollar 75 ml is still held back as coming soon. At Sephora both sizes sit behind a notify-me form, the first American drop having run out. · 30 d ago
