It is a very important matter, as a woman, to juggle everything... Your professional life, family, children etc.

How can you live the high life if you do not wear the high heels?

Perfume follows you; it chases you and lingers behind you. It's a reference mark. Perfume makes silence talk.

You can create fashion everywhere in the world, but the place where you are crowned is Paris.

Perfume is like a parenthesis, a moment of freedom, peace, love and sensuality in between the disturbances of modern living.

It doesn't matter one damn bit whether fashion is art or not. You don't question whether an incredible chef is an artist or not-his cakes are delicious and that's all that matters.

I don't like women who are multiform, who wear many different shapes. Women who retain a unique shape are usually unique people.

The essence of seduction for me in a man, although it stems from his rough, almost rough-neck looks, still contains something of the woman: he must be seductive and intelligent.

Being one step ahead of a fashion trend is not so important to me. What matters is to always forge ahead.

I was rather free, and I always did what I wanted to do, sometimes without listening to the people who warned me not to do this or that.

Until you let go of that bitterness in your heart, it will find a comfortable place to destroy your dreams, your sight and most times, your sleep.

One's duty is always and everywhere to be true to one's own experience.

I had dreams of winning Olivier Awards.

The Wedding March always reminds me of the music played when soldiers go into battle.

I like a little bit of designer, with a bit of vintage and high street mixed in. I love it when you find those one-off key pieces, which end up becoming investment pieces.

What's now urgently needed [to stop environmental disaster] is the international political commitment to take action to avoid dangerous climate change.

President Obama is riding the wrong horse on energy.

People should never allow themselves to be dictated to by media.

It's the best honor when someone wants to use as their professional title the name of a character that you portrayed.
