Dinner"},"content":{"rendered":"

\n\tKilian Paris brought its latest fragrances to the Sunset Tower Hotel on Thursday night, gathering a group of Los Angeles<\/a> personalities for cocktails and dinner overlooking the city.<\/p>\n

\n\tHosted by creator and podcaster Victoria Villarroel, the evening celebrated the launch of the fragrance<\/a> house\u2019s new Cocktails Collection as the brand looks to connect with a younger consumer.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe guest list was a mix of Villarroel\u2019s friends and supporters of the brand, including Anastasia Karanikolaou, Iris Kendall, Aisha Potter, Ariel Tejada, Yris Palmer, Rickey Thompson and Alix Earle<\/a>, who made an entrance midway through dinner.<\/p>\n

\n\tOnce guests were seated, Villarroel took the mic.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis feels like my wedding or something,\u201d she laughed, with her boyfriend, L.A.-based designer Doni Nahmias, among those at the table. \u201cThank you, everyone, for being here. I love seeing old faces, new faces. And we love a cocktail, all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe new fragrances riff on three different cocktails. Sparkling Royal, inspired by a Kir Royal, combines Moroccan mint, wild currant and roasted tonka bean, Pi\u00f1a Para\u00edso leans tropical with pineapple, coconut and vanilla bourbon, and Midnight Espresso mixes coffee, dark chocolate and vanilla bourbon. Priced at $150 for 75 ml., the trio offers a more accessible entry point into Kilian Paris, the perfume house founded by Kilian Hennessy in 2007 that is known for scents including Angels\u2019 Share and Love, Don\u2019t Be Shy.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe cocktail menu kept to the theme. Sparkling Royal paired cr\u00e8me de cassis with sparkling wine, Midnight Espresso took the form of an espresso martini and Pi\u00f1a Para\u00edso mixed pineapple juice, white rum and cream of coconut.<\/p>\n

\n\tVillarroel asked for a show of hands from anyone who liked a drink \u2014 plenty went up.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cTonight will be a night of memories and love and friendships,\u201d she continued, encouraging everyone to \u201cmake a friend\u201d and \u201cget some new digits, get out of your comfort zone.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kilian Paris brought its latest fragrances to the Sunset Tower Hotel on Thursday night, gathering a group of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":662329,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[268],"tags":[75074,798,434,18,117,57037,19,17,1370],"class_list":["post-662328","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-alix-earle","tag-beauty","tag-celebrities","tag-eire","tag-entertainment","tag-fragrance","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-los-angeles"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/117179481368307246","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/662328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=662328"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/662328\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/662329"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=662328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=662328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=662328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
