RajoMan & Remy Martin: A perfect pairing

MANILA, Philippines - What would you call the pairing of the world’s quintessential cognac brand and one of the country’s top design houses? Well, nothing short of design heaven as heavyweight brands RajoMan and Remy Martin combine to deliver a high-spirited fashion event brimming with taste and style.

The House of Rémy Martin, for its part, represents almost 300 years of French wine growing and cognac making tradition, offering a cognac of unique aromatic intensity. With a fine heritage dating back to 1724, Rémy Martin has been driven by one quest — to capture the Heart of Cognac, exclusively blending 100 percent of its cognac from the most sought-after rare grapes from the Cognac region. This has earned Rémy Martin the prestigious recognition of being a Fine Champagne Cognac by the Appelation d’ Origine Controlee, the official governing body for fine spirits of France.

From the House of Laurel, RajoMan traces its beginnings in 2007 when designer Rajo Laurel, together with his brother John, decided to address a serious fashion conundrum, the lack of decent fashion brands that catered solely to men. With a mission and a clear-cut vision in mind, the two took to the drawing board. Thus, RajoMan was born.

With a design spectrum that caters to the more sartorially timid male (think button-downs, jackets and shirts in neutral colors, classic cuts and the richest fabrics) as well as the serious fashion player (bright colors and patterned materials in cutting-edge combinations are a staple), RajoMan has got something for every man. With a solid customer base in places even outside Manila like Davao and Hong Kong, and with its recent launch held at the House of Laurel in Makati, the brand shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
