Article 10 of the Indenture; and

          WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the
equal and ratable benefit of the holders of the Senior Notes as follows:

          (a)  Capitalized Terms.  Capitalized terms used herein without
               -----------------
definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

          (b)  Agreement to Guarantee.  The Guarantors hereby agree, jointly and
               ----------------------
severally with all other Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, to guarantee, on a

any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for
any claim based on, in
<PAGE>

respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation of any such
obligation. Each Holder by accepting a Senior Note waives and releases all such
liability, and such waiver and release is part of the consideration for the
issuance of the Senior Notes.

          (d)  Governing Law.  The internal laws of the State of New York shall
               -------------
govern and be used to construe this Supplemental Indenture.

          (e)  Counterparts.  The parties may sign any number of copies of this
               ------------
Supplemental Indenture.  Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them
together represent the same agreement.

          (f)  Effect of Headings.  The section headings herein are for

               ----------------------------------------------
irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York
and the courts of the United States of America located in the Borough of

respect to this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby.  FFI GmBH
waives any objection that it may have to the venue of any suit, action or
proceeding with respect to the Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantee or the
transactions contemplated thereby in the courts of the State of New York or the
courts of the United States of America, in each case, located in the Borough of
Manhattan, City and State of New York, or that such suit, action or proceeding
brought in the courts of the State of New York or the United States of America,
in each case, located in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York
was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same.

          FFI GmBH irrevocably appoints French Fragrances, Inc., 1345 Avenue of
the Americas, New York, New York 10105, as its authorized agent in the State of
New York upon which process may be served in any such suit or proceedings, and
agrees that service of process upon such agent, and written notice of said
service to FFI GmBH (Attention: Secretary), by the person serving the same to
the address provided above shall be deemed in every respect effective service of
process upon FFI GmBH in any such suit or proceeding.  FFI GmBH further agrees
