ⁿ With sales for the first time surpassing the €200 million milestone, up to 20% this year, Burberry fragrances continued its trajectory of sustained growth since 1993 on solid performances by the brand's historic lines and the Burberry Body line's highly successful and promising launch; n In a year without any major launches, Lanvin fragrances expanded further on steady sales from the Éclat d'Arpège lines and growth by the Jeanne Lanvin and Marry Me! lines;

ⁿ With the launch of the men's line Legend (more than €10 million for the year) and steady performances by the brand's historic lines integrated into the portfolio at the end of 2010, Montblanc fragrances had sales of more than €30 million or three times more than the starting year target;

n Very high product turnover accompanied by the extremely rapid renewal of orders at points of sale for the first women's fragrance line Jimmy Choo resulted in sales of €29 million, again three times higher than initial estimates at the start of the year;

n After two years devoted to renewing the product range and repositioning the brand in the exclusive high-end segment (launch of the Féerie, Oriens and Midnight in Paris lines), Van Cleef & Arpels fragrances have consolidated their positions with sales of €20 million;

n Boucheron fragrances' integration in the portfolio as of Spring 2011 generated additional sales of more than €8 million.

Philippe Benacin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented:

"Successful launches in 2011 of Jimmy Choo, Montblanc Legend and Burberry Body lines in particular, positive outlooks for Lanvin, Van Cleef & Arpels and Boucheron fragrances and a portfolio recently strengthened by the addition of the Balmain and Repetto brands, allow us to look to the future with optimism.
