The Monaco famously became the founding expression of HOMMAGE and a unique experiential brand was born.
HOMMAGE products and select HOMMAGE treatments have been available in high end prestige Hotel Spa's the Middle East for the past few years. As part of their initial brand awareness HOMMAGE partnered with select exclusive spas around the world to bring unique masculine treatments for the modern gentleman into their transformative environments.
Tom Wilscam, CEO HOMMAGE: “The Middle East is a very strong market for us due to the grooming trends already in place, The United States has the lowest percentage of male spa-goers, but while the trend is lower in the U.S., it appears to have taken off in other countries. Asia is where you have the highest percentage of male spa attendance. In the Middle East, treatments and regular shaves are extremely popular among Arabic men. Men worldwide all have similar challenges with grooming and can benefit from learning about treatments and best practices in men's grooming. It's about the art of combining this modern technology with many of the ancient traditions found in spa treatments gathered from across the world”
