Fendi continued its rapid expansion and its leather goods revenue grew strongly over the period. The Spy range and the B.Fendi collections are two examples of the brand¡¯s excellent potential and improvements in the distribution network continue.

In perfumes, existing products continue to grow well and contributed to the strong revenue growth. Guerlain benefited from the excellent launch of its new Orchid¨¦e Imp¨¦riale skincare product and further progress with the KissKiss make-up range.

Revenue of Parfums Givenchy was driven by ¡®vintage¡¯ expressions of its Organza, Amarige and Very Irresistible lines.
