The most conversation-sparking object in your home? We have black On The List bags everywhere in the house and in the back of the car. We use them for everything. When the kids were younger, they could fit in them but now they're a bit too big. When we go for dinner, we use them to bring a bottle of wine or Champagne for the host.

A scent that immediately brings you joy? The smell of freshly cut grass. I used to play a lot of golf. As a 15-, 16- and 17-year-old, I went to Scotland, Wales and Ireland to compete and that smell reminds me of arriving at a tournament at a.m. and feeling both pressure and excitement. It brings back good memories.
Your favourite city and the first thing you do there? My dad is Mexican and my mother is French. I grew up in both Mexico City and Paris and have good memories of both places. The first thing I do in both cities is eat with friends – in Mexico I go for tacos and in Paris it's oysters.
An item you never travel without? Family. We did a lot of business trips before the kids were born and now, when we have the opportunity, we travel with them. If I'm travelling alone, I've always got my AirPods and listen to podcasts about luxury, retail and entrepreneurship. I especially like a French one called Génération Do It Yourself with long interviews with people in sports, the arts and entrepreneurs.

Your favourite gadget around the house? I got a Devialet sound system for my 30th birthday. After dinner and a few too many bottles, we might put the volume up a little too high. It's fun.
