Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The world's biggest professional beauty fair, kicking off April 15 in Bologna, Italy, is focusing on fragrances this year, with one workshop 'experimenting' with wine notes and chocolate.
Organized by Thierry Mugler - the maker of the Angel and Alien fragrances - the interactive event will invite visitors to experience the wine notes of different perfumes, enhanced by servings of chocolate. The event takes place April 17, and the public can pre-register online at cosmoprof.com.
Another original way of discovering fragrances was thought up by jazz pianist and composer Laurent Assoulen and Givaudan perfumer Guillaume Flavigny who will present scents inspired by music and invite the public to experience both at the same time. This, too, will take place April 17.
And for all serious fragrance enthusiasts: register now for Cosmoprof's Perfume Creation Lab, where perfumery experts will let you in on the creation process behind scents. L'Unique: Laboratoire du Parfum runs all day on April 18.
Fashion brand Blugirl will narrate this process - from creation to distribution - on the basis of its signature fragrance on April 17. And if you're despairing over not being invited to this professionals-only event, try the Recreate Pleasure in the Act of Purchase workshop instead.
All information regarding these workshops and presentations can be found at www.cosmoprof.com /en/italiano-eventi.
Cosmoprof Bologna takes place April 15-19 and is divided into the categories Cosmopack, Perfumery & Cosmetics, Cosmoprof Nature, Cosmoprof Spa & Beauty, as well as several contests and award ceremonies. International editions of Cosmoprof are organized in Las Vegas and Hong Kong, and the group also powers the Beauty Eurasia fair in Istanbul.
