At just 22 years old, Geri Halliwell-Horner shot to fame as Ginger Spice in the iconic and record-breaking girl group the Spice Girls. They went on to sell over 85 million records worldwide, cementing their status as one of the all-time greats. In 1998, Halliwell-Horner decided to leave the group, jumping into her solo music career.

After the success of her best-selling autobiography, If Only, Halliwell-Horner went on to pen the fictional children’s series Ugenia Lavender, which sold more than 250,000 copies in its first five months.

In 2007, Kavi Ahuja Moltz and her now husband David launched D.S. & Durga out of their apartment in Brooklyn, New York. Today, the brand’s beautiful perfumes, candles, and bodycare products can be found in their three (soon to be four!) brick-and-mortar stores as well as in retailers like Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus, and direct-to-consumer.
