NARS Cosmetics unveils its third boutique at Ambience Mall, Gurugram

NARS Cosmetics, the iconic global makeup brand founded by Creative Director François Nars, continues its bold India momentum with the opening of its third standalone boutique at Ambience Mall, Gurugram. Less than three years since its India debut in October 2023, the brand's rapid retail expansion is a testament to its deepening cultural resonance and the growing appetite for bold, artistry-led beauty among Indian consumers.

According to the brand, the choice of Ambience Mall, Gurugram, one of North India's most prominent luxury retail destinations, reflects the brand's commitment to building a strong and lasting presence in a market that is actively shaping the future of beauty in India.

The 320 square-foot boutique boasts sharp lines and elevated comfort with a luxuriously sleek design conceived by Founder and Creative Director François Nars in collaboration with Fabien Baron of Baron & Baron. This vibrant location offers customers the opportunity to receive expert advice from talented NARS pro makeup artists, ensuring a personalized shopping experience.

The boutique features stunning, Instagrammable moments, including a bespoke infinity mirror designed by Baron & Baron that invites guests to capture their beauty journey alongside NARS’ most iconic products. Additionally, the store is accented with large, striking visuals and films from recent campaign shoots by François Nars, showcasing the brand’s bold aesthetic and commitment to artistry.

Speaking about the new store, Sanjay Sharma, Country Head, Shiseido India, said, “Opening our third standalone boutique in under three years is a milestone that reflects not just growth but a strong cultural relevance that NARS has earned in India and the genuine excitement around the brand. NARS continues to scale its India presence through immersive, design-forward spaces that celebrate creativity, individuality, and fearless self-expression. We are excited to bring this experience to Ambience Mall, Gurugram and further strengthen the brand’s connection with this market”

"This expansion reflects the shift in the Indian beauty consumer, who is more discerning and drawn to high-performance, creativity-led products. At Global SS Beauty Brands, we shape brands rooted in strong creative expression and meaningful consumer engagement, and NARS exemplifies this through its distinctive artistic vision and innovation led approach. With the opening at Ambience Mall, Gurugram, we are proud to strengthen the brand’s presence and resonance in this market,” shares Biju Kassim, CEO & MD Global SS Beauty Brands (GSSBB).
