Moments In Paris JAFRA Cosmetics International A magical story in six vignettes, Moments in Paris is a collection of moments that tells the story of an aspirational young heroine, new to Paris and unsure what her future holds. Luckily, romance, excitement and inspiration are everywhere inthe City of Lights; from the sound of jazz musicians in the Marais, to the aroma of mara strawberries wafting from every patisserie, to the drops of summer rain falling along the Seine during a stroll with her new love. In other words, Paris is magical. And our story – just like JAFRA’s new fragrance – conveys the spirit of the city. It evokes the desire to be there now and the feeling that one can get there… with a single spray.
