Actually Kate Middleton. Coming here at this time there is so much about the royal wedding, and it made me think: she has no intimacy with anything, everything is seen. Her dress will be seen, her hair, her ring. I love the idea that her scent, the fragrance she chooses to wear on the day, will be the only part that is intimate.
— Perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, answering the question "Who would you love to create a signature scent for?" at Vogue.
