Fronted by YSL Beauty Global Ambassador Austin Butler, MYSLF continues the exploration of authenticity to the highest pursuit – a trait valued & reflected by Shai. As a newly appointed U.S. Voice of YSL Beauty’s MYSLF ABSOLU, Shai brings his infectious energy and edge – effortlessly commanding attention in a bold new campaign.

The Voice, a Force 

A rising star from childhood, Canadian-born Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has become one of the most electrifying forces in basketball today. After being drafted in 2018, Shai’s steady rise reached new heights in 2025, when he led the Oklahoma City Thunder to their first-ever NBA championship and earned both League MVP and Finals MVP honours.

Known for his cool demeanour and sharp instincts on the court, Shai’s influence extends far beyond basketball.

“What excites me most is working with a brand that is known for being the pinnacle of luxury, edge and confidence. I’ve admired YSL Beauty in its capacity as a legendary, boundary-breaking brand since I was young, shopping with my mum. To now be part of that legacy feels not only like an honour and a privilege, but true to who I am.” – Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, U.S. Voice of YSL Beauty’s MYSLF ABSOLU

Shai uses his platform to connect with others, inspire the next generation of athletes, and celebrate his roots aligning with YSL Beauty’s commitment to authenticity, excellence and empowering communities.

The Campaign, Absolutely Himself

Set against a clean, crisp background, the visuals create a striking contrast that allow Shai to stand out in his purest, most authentic form. No distractions, just unapologetically himself. He radiates confidence and individuality, fully embracing every facet of who he is.

Shai embodies the superlative essence of self-expression: the most intense, the most liberated version of oneself, encapsulating the MYSLF ABSOLU fragrance. It’s about leaning into your desires, celebrating your own choices, and owning the power of living freely and fully in your own skin.

The visuals capture the spirit of absolute authenticity and joy. A feel-good manifesto that champions self-celebration. It’s bold. It’s real. It’s the ultimate expression of MYSLF.

Intensely, Radiantly, Exhilaratingly ABSOLU

Absolutely intense. Absolutely radiant. Absolutely exhilarating. It’s the new feel-good scent.

In the newest expression of the MYSLF fragrance line, YSL Beauty reveals the highest elevation of its masculine icon: new feel-good intensity for instant radiant pleasure. The epitome of YSL Beauty’s edgy attitude is encapsulated in a new powerful sparkling trail.

With MYSLF ABSOLU, perfumers Daniela Andrier, Christophe Raynaud, and Antoine Maisondieu, disrupt the very concept of the “absolu.” Rather than going rich and opulent, they’ve shot the scent through with light, making it radiant and luminous. The scent opens with an invigorating burst of cool spices. The fresh sparkling ginger essence and note of zesty green cardamom enhance MYSLF’s unique vert de bergamot scent. Impactful and incisive, this brilliant quality of bergamot is crafted to render the liveliness of the fruit at the beginning of the harvest.

At the heart of the fragrance, MYSLF’s signature orange blossom is magnified, augmented by a clean, crystalline accord crafted from blossoms grown in the YSL Beauty Ourika Community Gardens in Morocco. This unique accord, introduced for the first time in MYSLF, transcribes the most faithful expression of the flower, its quintessence. The precious essence, tailor-made for YSL Beauty, unveils a woody fragrance, and warm ambery accord for extreme sensuality. The patchouli heart that brings warmth and depth to MYSLF ABSOLU is cultivated in Indonesia by local programmes that support underprivileged communities, focused on fair trade principles.

MYSLF ABSOLU is all about letting go, pursuing pleasure, having fun and embracing a hedonistic lifestyle. Now’s the time to feel it all.

The Design. More Than a Bottle. A Statement

MYSLF is more than a bottle. It’s a totem, giving off its own vibration. A YSL Beauty attitude. Radically strong. Unapologetically bold. Conceived by the award-winning designer Suzanne Dalton to express a more subtle, sensual expression of masculinity, MYSLF’s tall, slender monolith encapsulates the quintessential YSL Beauty silhouette.

Today, the icon becomes the absolute expression of MYSLF, turning the luxurious lacquering of the glass into a shiny, dark-silver mirror. A new, bold, tone-on-tone metallic finish that reflects the sparkling trail of MYSLF ABSOLU.

In a quintessentially couture gesture, the iconic YSL Beauty cassandre design dips into the surface. A technical tour de force and a true innovation, as the cassandre is moulded directly into the glass rather than being an added plate.

This edgy design is driven by YSL Beauty’s programme REDUCE OUR IMPACT. The glass bottles contain recycled glass, and the boxes are FSC™ MIX certified. By using an FSC™ certified board for the boxes, Yves Saint Laurent Beauty supports forest management that respects people and nature.

Carlsberg Asia wrapped up a high-energy week of football celebrations in support of Liverpool FC’s 2025 Asia Pre-Season Tour — culminating in Hong Kong, where the club faced off against AC Milan on July 26. While the result didn’t define the occasion, the unity, passion, and electrifying atmosphere across the city offered a powerful reminder of Carlsberg’s long-standing partnership with Liverpool FC, and the deep connection shared with fans across the region.

Spanning seven Carlsberg Asia markets — Cambodia, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, and Vietnam — the campaign brought together fans, communities in a shared moment of passion and celebration. From eye-catching installations to exclusive promotions across on-trade and off-trade channels, Carlsberg Asia once again proved its ability to deliver immersive and engaging experiences across the region.

A standout highlight was the launch of the limited-edition Miracle Can, inspired by Liverpool FC’s unforgettable 2005 comeback in Istanbul. The collectible receives overwhelmingly positive feedback across multiple markets, becoming a symbol of legacy, resilience and shared fandom.

Arindam Varanasi, Commercial Vice President, Carlsberg Asia, said: “This regional Carlsberg – LFC campaign has profoundly united fans from diverse backgrounds, sparking excitement and passion for football. The vibrant energy we experienced in Hong Kong and other Asia markets reflected the creativity and the superior execution capabilities of our teams to capitalise on the power of two global brands on the ground. The impactful brand visibility and presence in key tourist locations, retail stores and the on-trade not only captivated all adult consumers but also significantly strengthened our market presence, especially with the Carlsberg brand. We are genuinely thrilled to have welcomed our valued partners, customers, and consumers in Hong Kong for this extraordinary and unique activation campaign, reinforcing our commitment to the spirit of football and our enduring partnership with Liverpool FC.”

In Hong Kong, the heart of the celebration, the Walk of Fame exhibition on the Avenue of Stars honoured Liverpool FC’s legendary legacy and vibrant fan culture. Featuring a Carlsberg x Liverpool FC lightbox with “CHAMPIONS” lettering set against the stunning Victoria Harbour skyline, the installation drew large crowds of fans eager to snap photos and express their pride.

A Carlsberg-branded sailboat, adorned with Carlsberg’s iconic hop leaf and Liverpool FC’s Liver Bird, turned heads as it sailed across Victoria Harbour. The striking display sparked excitement and rallied fans along both shores to show their support for the Reds, alongside with the “Carlsberg x Liverpool Champion” themed open-top bus! Festivities also surged in Lan Kwai Fong, where a Reds-themed bar party with flowing Carlsberg beer. The energy peaked as Liverpool FC legends, including Sami Hyypiä, Jerzy Dudek, Lucas Leiva, and Niamh Fahey, made special appearances. They personally thanked Hong Kong fans for their unwavering support and shared inspiring stories about their love and pride for the club.

Jeff Chong, Director, International Premium Brands, Carlsberg Asia, added: “The success of our Hong Kong activations reflected the power of blending immersive brand storytelling with the deep passion of fans. The energy and excitement from supporters across Asia were truly remarkable and reminded us how football can genuinely bring people together. With strong support from our regional markets, we created memorable moments that resonated deeply with fans. We are proud of what we have achieved and remain committed to promoting football culture and engaging fans across Asia through innovative and inspiring activations.”

For over 30 years, Carlsberg has stood side by side with Liverpool FC — marking the longest partnership in football history. As the club continues to inspire fans around the world, Carlsberg Asia remains committed to supporting the team, the global fanbase, and the beautiful game — for many seasons to come.

Two weeks to go! The UEFA Women’s EURO 2025™ begins on Wednesday July 2 and Hublot will be there to time every minute. The festival of football will be contested by 16 teams across eight venues in Hublot’s home country of Switzerland. As the first luxury Swiss watch in football, Hublot will serve as the tournament’s Official Timekeeper, reprising its role from when the event was held in England three years ago.

Hublot will be highly visible throughout the tournament, with on-screen graphics for television audiences, and of course, by providing the iconic pitch-side Big Bang Fourth Official’s Board to announce substitutions and added time. The famous Hublot black-and-white logo will pop up on the LED screens that surround the pitch during matches and on giant screens at host stadia, too.

Match-day officials will wear the Hublot Big Bang e Gen3 connected watch, a state-of-the-art smartwatch created exclusively for referees and their assistants. The watch is equipped with features designed to enhance the officials’ performance, including monitoring yellow cards and added time at the end of a game.

Meanwhile, many players, coaches and pundits will also be clocked during the tournament sporting watches from the Hublot collection, among them the bright, colourful, innovative novelties introduced at April’s Watches and Wonders Geneva 2025 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Big Bang, Hublot’s game-changing luxury sports watch.

Hublot is also delighted to announce that two greats of the women’s game will take to the field this summer as Hublot Friends of the Brand. The innovative luxury Swiss watchmaker is proud to work with Norway’s legendary Ada Hegerberg, Friend of the Brand since 2019, the first winner of the Ballon d’Or Féminin (awarded to the world’s best female footballer) and all-time highest goalscorer in history of the UEFA Women’s Champions League™.

And this year, Hublot is excited to welcome into the Hublot family of elite athletes the Spanish superstar Aitana Bonmatí. At just 27, Aitana is widely considered to be one of the greatest footballers ever to grace the game. During her dynamic career, the FC Barcelona Féminin midfielder has won countless club trophies and individual awards, including the Ballon d’Or for two consecutive years, in 2023 and 2024. She helped turn Spain’s national side into a world-beating force. She was also named the winner of the Golden Ball as the best player of the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™, driving Spain to their first FIFA World Cup™ win in front of record crowds. She takes Spain into this summer’s tournament as favourites to lift the trophy.

Both Ada and Aitana will be modelling pieces from the bright, colourful Big Bang One Click Joyful collection in Hublot’s summer campaign celebrating the tournament. Ada will wear the One Click Joyful Steel Pink, a 33mm steel piece on a white and pink-lined rubber strap that has 36 pink sapphires set into the bezel; Aitana will wear the One Click Joyful Steel Orange, a version of the same watch but on a white and orange-lined rubber strap with 36 orange sapphires set into the bezel.

Hublot has a long history in the game of football. In 2006, it became the first luxury Swiss watch company to invest in the world’s most popular sport when it entered into a partnership with the Swiss national team. That quickly blossomed into a deeper relationship with the sport as Hublot became the Official Watch for UEFA Euro 2008™ and then in 2010 became the Official Timekeeper of the FIFA World Cup™.

Hublot has timed every major international men’s football tournament since, adding UEFA competitions such as the UEFA Champions League™ and the English Premier League™, the most-watched sports league in the world. In 2023, Hublot showed its commitment to developing the women’s game by becoming the Official Timekeeper of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand™. Hublot also counts stars of the game including FIFA World Cup™ winner Kylian Mbappé among its ambassadors.

UEFA Women’s EURO 2025™ begins on July 2, by hosts Switzerland as they go up against two-time winners Norway in Basel. All 31 tournament fixtures will run on Hublot time, including the final in Basel on Sunday July 27.

“As the first luxury Swiss watch in football, it’s with a heady mix of pride and excitement that Hublot takes on the role of Official Timekeeper at UEFA Women’s EURO 2025™. Summer football tournaments are always a joy, but this one feels special. Why? Partly because it’s hosted here in our home country of Switzerland, and partly because we’re so thrilled to be working with two of the greatest players ever to grace the beautiful game of football in Ada and Aitana, who we welcome into the Hublot family with enormous gratitude. There is so much we can do together to promote not just the women’s game, but also to achieve great things off the pitch. The fusion of Hublot and football has huge power and together we can reach new heights, making a positive, lasting impact on people’s lives all over the world. On behalf of everyone here at Hublot, it’s my pleasure to wish the players, coaches and fans of all 16 countries taking part the very best of luck this summer. We look forward to hosting you in beautiful Switzerland and we can’t wait to set the clock running on the tournament. Here’s to a summer festival of fantastic football!” stated Julien Tornare, Hublot CEO.

Hublot

In 1980 and for the first time, a watch dared to put a gold case on a rubber strap, turning the luxury watch world upside down in the process. Named for the porthole-shaped bezel with its exposed screws, Hublot was born and with it, the Art of Fusion.

In 2005 the brand took this exercise in creative thinking to a new level with the Big Bang and its iconic design, size and layered construction case. That same year, Hublot received the Best Design award at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. Since then, spurred by this revolutionary mindset, the Big Bang has never stopped reinventing itself. The twenty-first century has its first watch Icon.

The concept of fusion is omnipresent, the guiding principle for every collection. Big Bang timepieces reshape the geometries of time; Classic Fusion balances boldness and restraint, while the Exceptional Timepieces overwrite expectations to create unprecedented horological objects. With its disruptive approach of challenging convention, Hublot’s DNA is transcribed in the Unico, Meca-10 and tourbillon in-house movements, to add another tier of meaning to the Art of Fusion.

Alchemy is ingrained into Hublot and not just at La Manufacture. Magic can take place on a football pitch, producing partnerships with major events (UEFA Champions League and UEFA EuroTM). Sometimes it happens at a concert, a basketball match, an artistic performance or at a unique gastronomic experience with Hublot’s family of starred Chefs. And so, the Hublot Vibes come to life, through shared moments of exaltation amongst the Hublotistas, its very own community of proud Hublot owners. The Art of Fusion goes beyond the tangible. It is a way of being, the Hublot way of life.

Big Bang 20th Anniversary – A Celebration of the Big Bang Revolutionary Mindset

In 2005 the Big Bang marked the advent of a new era in watchmaking, more closely attuned than ever to the privileges of its name. Few timepieces have transformed contemporary watchmaking like the Big Bang. Twenty years after its launch, it remains the incarnation of a Manufacture that constantly pushes the boundaries of the unknown. Through exclusive materials and in-house movements, led by the Unico and the Meca-10, the Big Bang breaks with tradition —a notion it has never completely embraced. Singular for its bold aesthetic, plural for its versatility, this is the Big Bang.
