Rituals Unveils First POP-UP Store In China With Lagardere Travel Retail
Rituals Cosmetics has escalated the global expansion of the wellbeing category with the opening of the brand's first pop-up store at China at Hainan Tourism Duty Free Shopping Complex (HTDF) with Lagardére Travel Retail.
Launched in October 2022, Rituals' first pop-up store in China is inspired by the most healing abode, one that travellers will always return to - home. With the brand's vision of elevating everyday life into meaningful moments, Rituals believes that 'home' provides an essential reprieve from physical and mental exhaustion; a haven from the distractions of the outside world. Located in the Atrium on the first floor of HTDF, the Rituals pop-up store aims to provide travellers to Sanya with a welcoming space to nourish the body, mind and soul through healing aromas and the discovery of Rituals' range of home products.
"Rituals' goal is to inspire an emphasis on health and wellbeing that spreads around the globe; this is why we have always been committed to practices rooted in kindness and love, passion and joy. It is about creating more meaningful moments for consumers and improving their lives. Our message is clearly resonating with consumers around the world, and we are proud to continue our wellbeing expansion mission with our partners at Lagardère Travel Retail by bringing sustainable and luxury wellbeing to Chinese consumers," said Melvin Broekaart, Rituals Global Travel Retail Director.
"The Rituals pop-up shop has truly created a sanctuary here at HTDF, whisking travellers away from the hustle and bustle and creating a place of tranquility where they can really engage with the brand and immerse themselves on a healing journey. This partnership is integral to providing our travelling consumers with unrivalled customer experiences," added Terry Chua, Vice-President Merchandising at Lagardére Travel Retail Asia.
Rituals believes that beautiful scents can sublimate the everyday abode into a healing realm, emphasized at the Sanya pop-up store through a focus on the Private Collection, which uses century-old aromatic ingredients to bring an immersive multi-healing experience. Since ancient times, people have loved to enrich their homes with pleasant fragrances, create a happy atmosphere at home, and achieve physical and mental balance. Each Rituals fragrance is formulated with "healing body, mind and spirit" as the starting point, drawing inspiration from ancient life philosophies and materials to add special charm and style to the home.
The Private Collection includes three notes, Fresh, Rich and Floral, all using high-quality ingredients to create a high-style atmosphere for the home. A variety of unique aromas and high-end luxury bottles can be combined with any home style, filling the room with a pleasant fragrance. Different styles of healing fragrances can meet people's diverse fragrance needs, whether it is the fresh atmosphere brought by the fragrance of Qin Yu goji berry, the sweet, elegant floral breath emitted by the sweet jasmine fragrance, or the peaceful and warm rich rhythm of wild figs, all of which can sublimate the home into a warm retreat, create a special mood and atmosphere, and evoke good memories.
With the healing breeze of Sanya Island, travelling consumers are invited to join Rituals to gently welcome the sanctuary ofhome life and protect the happiness of every mon ment of daily life. The pop-up will conclude at the end of November 2022.
