OUR FRAGRANCE OBSESSIONS FOR SUMMER
SIMON Founder & President – Etiket HQ, Montreal
“I love this scent for summer because it’s soft, warm, and quietly confident. Mojave Ghost Absolu from Byredo isn’t loud or trying too hard. It has this beautiful balance of creamy woods and sheer florals that reminds me to slow down, breathe, and enjoy the moment. It’s like a deep exhale on a hot summer’s day. Familiar, comforting, and just mysterious enough to keep people leaning in to say…. ‘what are you wearing?”‘
JULES Makeup Coordinator – Etiket Toronto
“My summer is all about rays of light, drops of nectar, and cradles of lawn. To me, that’s best captured in Atelier Materi’s Narcisse Taiji, which scent-wise falls somewhere between Ghibli animated waters and overpriced shampoo. It’s bright and fluttery but still tranquil, like a quiet giggle between lovers on a picnic blanket. Smell it and think of her.”
STEVE VP Operations – Etiket Montreal
“I love Pacific Rock Moss from Goldfield & Banks Australia for summer because it’s just so effortlessly fresh. It’s that laid-back, beachy vibe without being too casual. I love the crisp marine notes, a touch of citrus, and that salty breeze feeling. It’s perfect for those hot days when you want to stay cool and sharp but still easygoing. Honestly, it’s one of those scents that makes me think of vacation even if I am making deliveries for our amazing customers!”
JENNY Fragrance Specialist – Etiket Toronto
“Menthe Fraîche from Heeley Parfums is an absolute breath of fresh air—literally! This scent beautifully captures the essence of summer with its vibrant, crisp, and invigorating notes. The fresh minty aroma feels light and uplifting, making it the perfect companion for warm, sunny days. It’s both cooling and refreshing, evoking the feeling of a gentle breeze on a hot afternoon. Lovely and effortlessly elegant, Menthe Fraîche adds a touch of natural beauty to your summer vibe. If you’re looking for a scent that’s bright, cheerful, and absolutely refreshing, this one is a true gem!”
GENEVIÈVE Customer Experience Specialist – Etiket HQ, Montreal
“This summer, I’m reaching for Palm EDP by Heeley Parfums and BoraBora EDP by Giardini di Toscana – two totally different moods, both equally dreamy. Palm is my ‘sunny stroll under the palms’ scent: fresh, breezy, and effortlessly cool. When I’m craving something a little sweeter, BoraBora brings the vacation vibes with creamy coconut and soft florals – like a beachy dessert in a bottle. Basically, I’m summering in scent!”
MARIANNE Fragrance Coordinator – Etiket Montreal
“Chic on the terrasse with a crisp glass of white and a spritz of 312 Saint-Honoré by BDK Parfums—powdery florals meet spicy ginger and pink pepper, melting into sun-warmed musk. Sophisticated yet undone, like tousled hair and vintage sunglasses. It’s golden hour in Paris, bottled.”
RALPH Fragrance Specialist – Etiket Montreal
“À Fleur de Pêche by L’Artisan Parfumeur is a bright, sunlit peach burst with juicy acidity intertwined with delicate jasmine petals creating a luminous and modern ode to summer’s ripe sensuality.”
ALLAN Fragrance Coordinator – Etiket Toronto
“Ganymede by Marc-Antoine Barrois is a dreamy summer scent because it’s light, fresh, and a little spacey—in the best way. Think sun-warmed suede, salty minerals, and juicy mandarin dancing on skin. Cool, crisp, and effortlessly chic. ✨”
ANNE MARIE Store Director – Etiket Toronto
“Simple. Solar. Smiling. TILIA is the scent of an everlasting summer and holidays that never end. A lovely blend of jasmine and vetiver. It is an ode to simplicity, to optimism, and to the joy that lingers like a long summer day. Literally sunshine in a bottle.”
We polled the Etiket team on their current favourite face masks. Here are their top picks and why they love them!
We asked our team members to share their current favourite face masks. From sheet masks to clay masks, these picks cover all skin types and needs. Read on to discover the go-to face masks our team swears by, along with a little insight into why they love them!
Ultra Purifying Clay Mask VIVIER
“Helps with hormonal acne during “that time” of the month and for sudden acne flares. Clean feeling and helps mattify skin.”
– GENEVIÈVE, Customer Experience Coordinator Etiket HQ, Montreal
StemYouth Mask PRO-DERM
“Instantly lifts the skin. I love the fact that it covers the neck too. Perfect just before an event or when you simply need an instant boost of radiance and firmness.”
– ÉDOUARD, Beauty & Fragrance Advisor – Etiket Montreal
5 Minute Facial Set TATA HARPER
“I love instant results with the least amount of work and this set combines both a cleanser and a mask that can be done in 5 minutes. I use it once a week in the bath. And not only does my skin feel and look dewy after, my pores get a nice cleanse and along with the signature Tata Harper scent (which comes from the many farm grown superfoods ingredients she includes in every product) allows me to sit back and relax (which is hard for me, even in the tub!).”
– ANNE MARIE, Boutique & Spa Director – Etiket Toronto
Hydrating Floral Mask TATA HARPER
“A great moisturizing and plumping mask that gives me plump, glowy skin. I love using it at night, especially in winter when my skin is dry from the cold.”
“This is dream skin in a bottle! I use it overnight whenever I have an important event and my skin is glowing the next day. My makeup looks flawless and stays put without needing any touch ups. Can’t live without it!”
– LUIZA, Makeup Specialist – Etiket Toronto
—
“I always make sure I have this mask in my vanity. It leaves skin smooth, firm and lifted before an event. You can even feel the lifting benefits the next day. It’s no coincidence that it’s nicknamed “facelift in a jar”. I use it regularly, 1-2 times a week, or whenever my skin needs a little boost.”
– KARINE, Marketing Director – Etiket HQ, Montreal
Clarity Mask NUORI
“I adore the Nuori Clarity Mask when I feel like I need a fresh boost and deep clean, without stripping my sensitive and redness-prone skin! It’s the perfect treatment to reduce the appearance of pores and blemishes (I sometimes use it as a spot treatment as well!) and the scent is aromatic and green, and helps me reset after a long day. Because the clay texture doesn’t dry too tight or flaky, it’s the most comfortable detoxing mask.”
– MARIANNE, Fragrance Coordinator – Etiket Montreal
Holi (bright) Resurface Glass Face Mask AGENT NATEUR
“It does exactly what it says! This mask leaves my skin feeling super clean, smooth and radiant. I love to do this before an event or when I want my skin to look extra good, as it reduces the appreance of my pores drastically. Perfect to get that ‘glass skin’ effect that’s trending on socials right now!”
– AMÉLIE, Skincare Coordinator – Etiket Montreal
Supreme Moisture Mask NUORI
“I really like this mask because it’s very moisturizing. It’s extremely comfortable on the skin and is like a cloud of relaxation. It’s not particularly fragrant, so for my very reactive skin, it’s perfect!”
– SAMUELLE, Esthetician – Etiket Montreal
Resurrection Girl Hydrating Mask PAI SKINCARE
“This instantly hydrating mask soothes your skin, and you, in one fell swoop. I love to apply this mask post-shave because the hyaluronic acid instantly floods the skin with moisture whilst the anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits of Blue Tansy Oil work synergistically to calm the skin & promote healing.”
– CIARAN, Boutique & Spa Assistant Director – Etiket Toronto
Sérum Radiant FRENCH FARMACIE
“Sérum Radiant is a powerful, multitasking “face oil meets serum” formula to nourish, soften, balance, and boost your skin’s healthy glow. It literally does it all. Great for my senstive skin and really helped my skin barrier now that we are going into a colder season. I also love using the Élixir Exfoliant at night and then the serum with their guasha. In the morning my skin is glowing and plumped!”
Some of our team members share their top Mother's Day picks!
As you probably know by now, Mother’s Day is just around the corner. Do you know what you’re getting your mom? To help conjure up some inspiration, we’ve asked our team to share what they’ll be gifting their mom this Mother’s Day. Here are a few of their suggestions.
“No one lights up a room quite like Jill, so a pop of pink on the lip is the perfect gift. Tata Harper’s lip creme in Bubbly is chic, bright, and luxurious. Just like you Mum!“ JULES, Makeup Coordinator, Etiket Toronto
“Just like this fragrance, my mom has always been warm, inviting, sweet and bubbly. Not to mention, fragrance has been something special we’ve bonded over since I was a little girl!” KYLA, Makeup Specialist, Etiket Toronto
“I’ve decided to gift my mom this scent because it reminds me of her favourite lemon ginger tea. We’re going to Curaçao to celebrate Mother’s Day so a fresh tropical scent is perfect for the occasion.” JESSE, Fragrance Specialist, Etiket Toronto
“My mom believed the first thing people noticed about you is your smile, and she loved to smile! She also loved a long-lasting lip gloss, just like Wonderblush’s lip oil in geranium (which is also her favourite flower).” ANNE MARIE, Boutique & Spa Director, Etiket Toronto
“I’d say practicality is my mom’s last name! She loves small and easy-to-use products, so a little palette like the RMS Lip2Cheek has everything that she needs for a pop of colour in her makeup!” LUIZA, Makeup Specialist, Etiket Toronto
“My mom’s beauty routine isn’t complete without her lipstick! The ILIA Color Block Lipstick in Rosette is the perfect soft burgundy for her fair complexion, blue eyes and silver hair.” MEREDITH, Skincare Specialist, Etiket Toronto
“After smelling this alluring scent, it reminded me so much of my Mom and the aura she projects. It really feels like a big hug from her. Growing up a Mama’s boy, I would always witness her wanting to smell the most unique fragrances and she always wore scents that were fruity, bold and captivating. Opus Kore is a scent that I find embodies the core of who my Mom is.” ALLAN, Fragrance Coordinator, Etiket Toronto
“For as long as I can remember, my mother has used a body moisturizer every day after showering, and almost every year on Mother’s Day, I gift her one. She likes the creamy versions, which moisturize deeply but are quickly absorbed. This year, I’ll be introducing her to Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Body Cream. I’m sure she’ll love it!” KARINE, Marketing Director, Etiket HQ, Montreal
“When I think of my mother, I dream of her love of tea and floral, slightly powdery fragrances. Inlé is a cloud of osmanthus and mate, comforting and delicate like my mother. One of the first fragrances I recommended to her, and one of her favourites!” MARIANNE, Fragrance Coordinator, Etiket Montreal
“I love this body cream, it’s so moisturizing, comfortable on the body and 100% natural. Plus with the refreshing scent of grapefruit and cucumber, it’s perfect for spring and summer!” VERONICA, Head Makeup Artist, Etiket Montreal
“A perfect gift for moms who love skincare and that will complement their skincare routine, this red light therapy LED mask boosts collagen for smoother, plumper skin.” MARION, Aesthetician, Etiket Montreal
From skincare and hair care to makeup and fragrance, let's delve into some of our team's current favourites, shall we?
In honour of Valentine’s Day, we asked some of our team members to share the Etiket products that captured their hearts! From skincare and hair care to makeup and fragrance, let’s delve into some of their current favourites, shall we?
I have never seen a product like this that refreshes hair without the heavy powdery feeling from usual dry shampoos. It adds volume and dimension back into my hair!
I have been loving Xerjoff’s Casamorati Dama Bianca layered with Escentric Molecules’ Molecule 01 + Black Tea. It has the perfect combination of sweet and fresh and is a recommendation I got from Emma, our fragrance specialist, to layer them! So gorgeous.
This Lip Karma keeps my lips hydrated and the taste is delectable, like my fave drink! I have also been loving Le Fard Blush, specifically in the shade Framboise by Wonderblush. It is long-lasting, and a little goes a long way.
This has been a game-changer in my routine! It has added so much plumpness to my skin and helped heal residual effects from a recent bout of atopic dermatitis.
Most mascaras make my eyes water or they do not lengthen and volumize my very sparse lashes. This mascara has fixed all of that and the wand gets every lash.
This product acts as a skincare product and as a corrector for both the complexion and dark circles. A tiny amount is enough to neutralize the colour of dark circles and facial imperfections.
When I was first introduced to Colorproof’s Biorepair collection, I was rather skeptical. After several months of use, I’m convinced of its effectiveness. The 3 products (and the brush) work in synergy to establish a healthy scalp and follicles, revealing thicker, fuller hair overtime.
ÉDOUARD Beauty & Fragrance Advisor / Etiket Montreal

OUR TEAM’S MUST-HAVES
We asked our team members to reveal their 12 favourite products: the ones they always use up and restock, or the ones that follow them wherever they go. Discover what some of them shared below!
We're rounding up what Etiket offerings our talented and knowledgeable team members have fallen in love with recently.
We’re rounding up what Etiket offerings our talented and knowledgeable team members have fallen in love with and we are thrilled to share their current must-haves! Spanning categories such as skincare, hair care, body care, fragrance and more, let’s dive into what has stolen everyone’s heart, shall we?
Pentimento sweeps me off my feet every time with its rich, decadent character. For me, it’s like putting on a cashmere knit. Carob, rum and tonka bean absolute with vanilla, hazelnut and tobacco flower are all good reasons to grab it whenever the temperatures drop.
On my skin, Cuir Velours offers a dark intermingling of tobacco and leather, with the sweet notes of rum and immortelle. Okay, understandably, I love the rum and tobacco notes. The surprising character of the leather charmed me immediately and accompanies me when I want to catch the eye.
In the evening, I apply and massage this melt-in texture cleanser onto my skin and let it sit for a few minutes, like a quick mask. The texture, which changes from a gel to a fine oil, is so satisfying and the textured herbal and ginger notes immerse me in a deep moment of relaxation. I always take the opportunity to give my face a full body massage even when it’s only 9 p.m. and my bed is already calling my name!
I can’t get enough of this serum, which I apply after cleansing and toning my skin. Its formula, rich in vitamin C, arbutin and resorcinol, gives me an instant glow, evens out my complexion and works over the long term by allowing my skin to age beautifully! It was suggested to me by Naomi (from the Etiket team, and I thank her!).
Tamarindo from Memo is the perfume I’m loving right now. It reminds me of escaping winter in Canada and heading to the beach in Costa Rica. A blend of pineapple, vanilla, bergamot and patchouli makes this scent warm and wild.
Polly Plum from Pai is a calming and hydrating body lotion that I love for winter. It’s fast absorbing on the skin and easy to apply in the morning. This is a wonderful product to help protect the skin in colder weather. For those who suffer from itchiness and inflammation (eczema/psoriasis), this is THE product for you!
Our new HydraFacial MD JLo Glow is my new spa treatment obsession. The only HydraFacial to firm and restore the skin, using olive leaf extract and niacinamide along with many other ingredients to make your skin brighter, tighter, nourished and plumper.
My favorite scent is Tihota EDP by Indult. I love mixing it with Palm EDP by Heeley. They remind me of where I was born and the good times I had on the beach.
I love Huna’s Botanical Body Nectar. I love the flowery smell. It moisturizes my very dry skin well and besides being natural, the container is a really good size for its very small price.
I use this treatment every night in large amounts to moisturize my dry hair, and in the morning in smaller amounts to keep my hair moisturized all day and to help with styling. Thanks to this product I am surprised how beautiful my hair looks even after bleaching.
I love natural products, and Tata Harper’s scents help me relax during my treatments. Moreover, Samuelle is very gentle and concerned about our well-being.
This is such a cozy scent that can be worn in summer or winter, in daytime or nighttime. It paints a picture of a cozy Sunday afternoon on a white couch with a fluffy blanket, with the windows open and the faint fresh smell of the prairies. It is all the beauty of the feeling of nature and being in the outdoors and nothing else. The artistry of the bottle adds to that warm feeling as well.
My favourite beauty product of the moment is the new Bio-Shield Face Oil by Tata Harper. It has all the luxury experience of the other Tata Harper products, but with a more sensitive touch. The oil is perfect for any skin condition without having to worry about any type of reaction. I personally have been using it twice a day and have seen an improvement in my skin.
My current favourite hair product is the new TOHI Scalp Serum from BeautéJaponica. I appreciate the concept of scalp health intersecting with self-care and the brand taking time to make a video on how to properly massage the scalp to get the most out of the serum!
My favourite spa treatment is the HydraFacial MD JLo Glow. HydraFacials completely change the look of your skin and promote healthy cell regeneration, in combination with the glow… the results are incredible!
I hesitate between these two as they both give me an inexplicable feeling of peace with the gourmand, fresh citrus and violet of Room Service and the white tobacco, blackcurrant and almond of Sunshine Woman. For me, these are PERFECT scents. They are also very chic for a night out.
Tata Harper’s fresh grapefruit & aloe cleanser kicks off my evening beauty routine. It is perfect for dry skin and you only need a small amount. I really like the smell, and followed by Tata’s Hydrating Floral Essence, it’s perfect!
For hair care, I’ve been using Sachajuan for over a year. It is sulphate free, concentrated and smells divine. Perfect for coloured hair, the Ocean Mist Volume Shampoo protects the hair well. I’m never disappointed with this line, even the Shine Serum is great.
For the ultimate spa experience: Tata Harper’s SuperNatural Facial. To fully unwind, Tata’s facials and body treatments are a must. The enveloping maneuvers and calming scents take us elsewhere. There is nothing better than receiving a treatment to calm the body and mind.
This refreshing mist toner is the newest addition to my skincare routine. I love it because it is gentle and nourishing. Chock full of antioxidants, the Unifier revitalizes all skin types and offers a soothing feeling. I love that it can be used as a toner, and as a hydrating mist during and after makeup application. I love recommending this to clients who are looking to add a multi-functional toner to their routine.
Hands down the yummiest hair treatment that can be used in-shower or as a treatment on dry hair to tame flyaways and prevent split ends. It nourishes the scalp and hair to yield unparalleled luminosity. This treatment can be used by both men and women who are interested in an easy-to-incorporate step for their haircare routine.
Dr. Barbara Sturm’s skincare system is all about simple yet effective products. The Discovery Kit is the perfect introduction to the wonders of this brand!
If you are experiencing hair loss, this is a safe and effective topical solution for thinning hair, formulated with nature’s most powerful ingredients for thicker, fuller, and healthier hair.
This treatment is designed to renew your skin, clean up those blackheads and soothe razor burn and ingrown hairs. You will be able to take on the world after this treatment.
Berlin is one of those scents that instantly transports me back to a summer vacation travelling Europe. If you are a fan of citrus, you have to give this one a sniff!
I love this product from RapidLash. I have been using this lash and brow-enhancing serum on and off for the last few years, and anytime I start using it again, my lashes and brows look more defined and elongated within a couple of weeks of daily use.
The SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel is amazing if you have skin that is prone to redness. It feels instantly soothing and I really enjoy the calming effect it provides prior to applying my moisturizer.
During winter, my skin needs both exfoliation to reveal its luminosity and hydration to give it a beautiful glow and dewy look. Once or twice a week, or before a night out or a special event, I like to combine Environ’s Focus Care Youth+ Tri-BioBotanical Revival Masque, also known as the “Facelift in a Jar” since it really helps improve the overall appearance of skin (it makes it smoother, firmer, more even, brighter and tighter) with Nuori’s Supreme Moisture Mask, which helps soothe, plump and hydrate the skin. It can even be left on overnight if desired.
At the start of winter, because of drier air, having to wear a hat, etc., I was experiencing static hair. Having your hair stand up straight and be unmanageable is quite the annoyance. I had to adjust my hair routine with a shampoo and conditioner duo that is more moisturizing by R+CO. Since I prefer added volume, I opted for the Dallas collection. I also incorporate a mask routine from The Hair Routine to keep my hair as healthy as possible. My hair problems were instantly fixed.
I recently fell in love with Aventus for Her by Creed, newly landed at Etiket. Although very different from my usual signature scent (Molecule 01 by Escentric Molecules), this fresh and floral scent, inspired by some of the most powerful women in history (empresses and queens and heads of state who were Creed customers) and modern women who are both imposing, resolutely feminine and assertive, is most addictive.
During my last few spa visits, Ivy combined two of my favourite treatments: the HydraFacial MD and the Intraceuticals Oxygen Treatment for hydrated, plumped and luminous skin. Treat yourself to a facial to feel revitalized or before an event for an instant lift.
I am rediscovering the Retexturing Activator for my night time routine from SkinCeuticals – Cleanse, Tone, Retexturing Activator – another layer of toner and then Triple Lipid Restore. It exfoliates AND gives me that extra layer of hydration that I want in the cold dry winter.
I am not someone who spends a lot of time on my hair. As they say, a little dab will do you and I can put it in damp hair and be done, or for some extra lift blow dry when I want to have that Harry Styles vibe. Harry may not think so though….
This takes me back to when I was 16 and I would spray my brother’s Eau Sauvage on before sneaking into the disco – don’t forget, this was 1979! The Creed Vetiver is a beautiful fresh scent that holds its own; classic or not!
It is always a Tata Harper facial – any one of them! From the minute it starts – breathing in the aromatic scents, the masks, until the final massage and layer of cream – I know I am going to come out relaxed and see a difference in my skin and in me!
I use this healing gel from Vivier enriched with Polyamide-DAB when my skin is irritated by the use of retinol, or by extreme cold. I use it as the last step in my routine. It is also an effective treatment for chapped lips with the anti-aging benefits of Polyamide-DAB.
PCA’s Pure Vitamin C Antioxidant Serum is our most concentrated serum with 20% ascorbic acid, 5% tocopherol (vitamin e) as well as hexylresorcinol which is a fantastic ingredient for pigmentation spots & irritations. Clinical studies have shown that 0.5% hexylresorcinol is as effective as 2% hydroquinone. The addition of silymarin makes it an excellent choice for acne-prone skin.
I love using this as a toner after my cleanser. It targets pigmentation spots and acne scars. It combines the power of niacinamide for its sebum-regulating effects, alpha arbutin for its skin-lightening properties, and undecylenoyl phenylalanine, a derivative of phenylalanine, an important amino acid for slowing down melanin production.
I love using this anti-pollution spray to protect my skin from the harmful effects of the sun and urban pollution. Combining an algae complex including chlorella, as well as a vitamin C derivative.
