Richemont Beauty is expanding its division by aiming to grow its fragrance brand portfolio. The company is trying to raise its beauty brand's size through this launch.

Richemont Beauty's fragrances include Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chloé, Dunhill, Alaïa, and Montblanc. Boet's work will enable these perfume brands to reach their potential level in the dynamic market. In contrast, the new CEO must also broaden Richemont Beauty's clientele base.
