PhilosophyFrench heritage perfume and bodycare house — the eau de toilette every grandmother kept in the bathroom cabinet.Liah Yoo's "press reset" philosophy: strip skincare back to what the barrier actually needs.

Roger & Gallet

Roger & Gallet is the 160-year French heritage brand built around eau de toilette, perfumed soap, and bodycare formulated with French floral extracts. The Bois d'Orange and Fleur d'Osmanthus eaux de toilette and bar soaps are the brand's most iconic products, and the bodycare extensions retain the same fragrance-led identity. Mid-tier pricing, distribution across French pharmacies and global luxury beauty retailers.

Pros

✓ Iconic perfumed bar soap
✓ Strong fragrance development
✓ Affordable luxury feel

Cons

✗ Treatment-skincare range is small
✗ Heavy fragrance polarizes
✗ Branding feels dated

Krave Beauty

Liah Yoo built Krave Beauty the way you wish more brands would — with a skincare-fatigued YouTube audience in mind, a commitment to stripping back rather than piling on, and one genuine cult hit in Great Barrier Relief. Small catalog, specific mission, loyal fans. Not for people who want a 10-step system. Very much for people whose skin has been yelled at for too long.
