Introducing Lancôme’s limited edition collection: Les Exceptionnels. Three beauty icons transformed into elevated objets d’art. In partnership with three renowned French artisans from Lalique, Bernardaud and Ateliers Gohard, discover the exclusive collection that reflects Lancôme’s 90-year legacy of beauty excellence.
Lancôme is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year with the launch of Les Exceptionnels, a limited-edition collection created in collaboration with three French heritage maisons. The collection reimagines some of Lancôme’s most iconic products as collectible objets d’art, each designed to be refillable.
The first piece is the La Vie est Belle Eau de Parfum, produced in partnership with Lalique. Hand-blown in crystal at the maison’s Alsace glassworks, the bottle sits on a white ceramic base decorated with Lancôme’s rose motif in gold.
Lancôme has also revisited its Absolue Soft Cream, first introduced in 1965, with a porcelain jar produced by Limoges-based porcelain maker Bernardaud.
The third collaboration is with Ateliers Gohard, specialists in gold leaf restoration work for sites including the Palace of Versailles. Together, they have created the L’Absolu Rouge Set, in which the lipstick is adorned with 23.5 carat gold.
Alongside these one-of-a-kind items, Lancôme is also introducing four new shades of its L’Absolu Rouge Drama Matte Lipstick, priced at $150 each. Each shade is tied to a milestone year for the brand: Rose de France (1935), Rouge Absolu (1990), Paris Rose (2025), and a new pH-activated balm (2115) that adjusts color based on the wearer’s skin tone.
The Les Exceptionnels collection and the new lipstick shades will be available beginning December 3, 2025, on Lancome.com in limited quantities.
