Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf zahir & batin! Indulge the Feast of Breaking the Fast with King's Potong!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf zahir & batin! Today marks the important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide that marks the end of Ramadan. Why not indulge in some King's Potong in Raya open houses?

Relishing King’s Potong brings us down memory lane, reminiscing the good old days when ‘potong’ was an enjoyable treat. For some of us, the ‘potong’ man may be the person we look forward to seeing after school for an afternoon delight.

Today, the ‘potong’ is widely available in supermarkets and hypermarkets. It may have evolved from a traditional cottage brand to an all-time favourite dessert enjoyed by both young and old but it still tastes the same like how it was in the good old days.

King’s has recently revamped its packaging for the Potong range to reflect the good old days when things were simpler. The new packaging design just makes identifying the variants so much easier with clearer diagrams and a neat design layout.

What’s new and also amazing is the improved version of the durian variant. It now has a more intense durian taste with additional real durian puree in its improved recipe. Durian lovers will certainly love the new intense flavour which is close to eating a frozen durian fruit.

Fall in Love With LA COLLECTION DE GRASSE By L’OCCITANE - A Quartet of Precious Scents Brought Together in Harmony

Scents have the amazing ability to evoke beautiful memories and emotions. Simple yet delightful scents like magnolia, bergamot, green tea and vanilla bring us back to the times when perfumes were less confusing. When combined together in perfect harmony, these natural scents become fragrances that speak volumes despite their straightforward nature. In short, what you smell is what you get – a concoction of natural extracts that boast of their clarity and transparency.

This August, my favorite brand, L’OCCITANE has launched a new collection celebrating the fragrant destiny if the French Provencal town of Grasse, by bringing together ingredients from near and far - La Collection de Grasse, an enchanting quartet of fragrances inspired by nature.

Just a little True Story of La Collection de Grasse

Quite by chance, the creation of a pair of scented gloves became the reason Grasse is now known as the world capital of perfumery. In 1614, a guild of glove makers and perfumers emerged, prompting a development in the cultivation of fragrant plants and flowers. Local growers learned to cultivate sweet-smelling flowers like jasmine, rose, orange blossom and violet. Meanwhile, the perfumers began to experiment with new extraction methods. The most adventurous of these perfumers headed to the Far East in search of the mysterious magnolia flower, or to Madagascar in search of vanilla. They ventured off the beaten track, crosssing seas and braving elements of the weather to obtain what they set out to find. By the end of the 18th century, Grasse had already established itself as a place that united precious ingredients from near and distant lands. To this day, Grasse remains well-known as a region that is filled with an abundance of fragrant creativity.

The Perfumer: Karine Dubreuil

“I was born with this garden in my head.” - Karine Dubreuil said.

Karine trained at the Roure school of perfumery in Grasse, and has worked with various major perfume houses. La Collection de Grasse is inspired by her childhood hometown, Grasse, where the greatest perfumers were trained. It is also where L’OCCITANE’s founder, Olivier Baussan, met his first perfumer, and where the very first L’OCCITANE fragrances were composed. “L’OCCITANE’s style is clear, pure and authentic. This is captured in its fragrances, which express the beauty of nature in its simplicity. Creating these fragrances with L’OCCITANE feels like second nature,” says Karine.

Precious Extracts Paired Together in Perfection

La Collection de Grasse takes you on a wonderful olfactory journey, with exquisite ingredients sourced from all around the world: Magnolia from the Far East, Blackberry from the South of France, Green Tea from Japan, Bitter Orange from Tunisia, Jasmine from Grasse and Egypt, Bergamot from Italy, Vanilla from Madagascar and Narcissus from France…

L’OCCITANE follows in the tradition of the perfumers who have built up the international reputation of Grasse as the capital of perfumery. Two by two, these precious ingredients come together in harmony under the supreme skill of Karine Dubreuil. Only the best natural extracts are used in these fragrances to translate their true transparency and bring out each ingredient’s clarity.
