## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated in July 2015 and operated as a skincare, fragrance and home lifestyle retailer trading from seven stores in London, together with several concessions. Its head office was also based in London.

At the date of our appointment, the Company employed 72 employees. 71 employees were made redundant as at the date of our appointment, with one employee being retained to assist with the winding down of the business, and to assist the Joint Administrators in completing their statutory duties. This employee was made redundant on 31 January 2026. Prior to our appointment, the Company paid all employees for the month of January.

Due to the Company not owning the stock to allow continued trading, and due to the ongoing losses being made by the Company prior to our appointment it was not considered appropriate to trade during the administration. In addition, the Intellectual Property required to trade the business, such as brand name and online trading infrastructure, was owned by M+G Inc.
