I'm at Amanzoe now and they have the products in the gift shops. Packaging is absolutely gorgeous.

I'm also invited to a launch at the Connaught next week.

Sounds like we’ve got ourselves a FT rodeo. To avoid three’s a crowd, I won’t be attending the Aman event, even though I too will be at The Connaught on Tuesday. Just so everyone knows.

I find the promotion on social media very tacky... as I follow most Aman resort accounts (like many of us Amanjunkies probably do), my whole Instagram feed is filled with that stupid skincare teaser video... from Kila to Giri!

"conditional agreement" sell amanzoe for 116m to Grivalia (bought pearl island from dolphin)

dolphin remains [asset] manager with 15% stake is good news for now?

odd, they may have not yet closed the sale of 40% stake in kea to one and only
did nera GM leave?
edit - unfortunate considering recent reports..

Aman Skincare launching next month.... and already has a knockoff?

https://www.emanufaktur-shop.com/deutsch/aman-skincare/

Only available on their German-language website, but I wonder what this is all about... they even copied the new logo, though ironically used the bottles Sodashi sources as well.

Amanpuri has added private pools to six of its pavliions (great) as well as officially launched the "children Eco-Discovery club" (not sure about this but let's see) and a revamped spa (great) and a "Hot Spot" (no idea what this is).

As posted earlier in my TR or somewhere , really not sure either, about all . The new pool pavilions aren’t quite ready to receive guests , the architect used “ not getting Aman “ like many of the newbies - getting it right even before launch ..
Possibly recceing in November when the visiting pastry chefs from AmanCGV are in residence , if I can get my flights in between trips before one to Amans in Japan .

Looks like the new GM at Amanera is Audrey Huttert.. she was the resort manager at Amanyara when I visited.... she left for RC/Auberge for a while...

Let's just that this news deflates my desire to return to Amanera....

Well , sadly , this isn’t the only Aman then : ( .
But hesitate to post those here , but some GMs & their replies give me a glimmer of hope for the Amans they are at
.. That the relevant ones involved in Aman Kyoto will not mess her up or the opening next year ..

Speaking of Aman Kyoto, I'm surprised so much has been kept under wraps. Any guesses as to when they will formally announce the property and when they will open?
