🇺🇸 L’Oréal Just Bought Kering Beauty for €4 Billion — and Changed the Future of Luxury
Update: 2025-10-20
Description
It’s official: L’Oréal has acquired Kering Beauty for €4 billion.
A move that doesn’t just expand a portfolio — it reshapes the future of luxury beauty. In this episode of Visionary Minds, Wilfried breaks down what’s really behind the deal:
- why L’Oréal is doubling down on high-margin fragrance,
- how Kering is refocusing on fashion and leather goods,
- and why Gucci Beauty remains outside the transaction — at least for now.
Beyond numbers, this is about strategy, influence, and identity.
Because in today’s luxury world, beauty isn’t just a product — it’s a form of power.
