Lancôme
Lancôme is one of the finest luxury beauty brands on the market. Established by Armand Petitjean in France in 1935, Lancôme was created in order to provide a brand that would deliver French elegance around the world. With a simple motive and quality products, it was not long until the brand name was a household name with women throughout the world. The name of the brand, Lancôme, was inspired by a castle ruin, Le Château de Lancosme, while the company’s symbol, a single rose, was inspired by the wild roses present in the area of the chateau. In 1964 the beauty giant L'Oréal acquired the company and made the beauty brand a part of the Luxury Products section. Lancôme Paris offers high-end skincare, fragrances and cosmetics and is represented by famous actresses, supermodels and perfumers. A Lancôme Paris luxury boutique can be found in the Palladium shopping center and off of Wenceslas Square in the Old Town district of Prague. The boutique off of Wenceslas Square, on Jungmannovo Náměstí doubles as a beauty salon that offers luxury cosemetic treatments.
