Renaud Salmon hasn’t been twiddling his thumbs. Since he joined Amouage as creative director about three years ago, he’s made what some might see as a surprising number of changes at the Omani brand, from its logo to its packaging and its policy on flankers. All of these subjectswere raised when he returned to my virtual studio the other day for the first of a special two-part live interview, during which we also discussed his latest release: Opus XIV Royal Tobacco, composed by Cecile Zarokian. Here’s a link to the video: Renaud Salmon Amouage interview 2022 part 1.
UPDATE 17th JULY 2022: Part 2 of the interview has been broadcast, so here’s a link: Renaud Salmon Amouage interview 2022 part 2. In this instalment, we discussed Renaud’s plans for the future of the brand, including his vision for the Library Collection. But perhaps the most interesting segment was about a stash of old bottles Renaud found in the Amouage factory just a few hours before the interview. A sight to behold!
