Item 1. Security and Issuer.

                  This statement relates to the shares of Class A Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of The Estee Lauder
Companies Inc. (the "Issuer"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are
located at 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

                  This statement is being filed by The Gary M. Lauder Revocable
Trust u/a/d August 10, 2000, Gary M. Lauder, Settlor (the "Reporting Person"),
with an address at ICTV Inc., 14600 Winchester Boulevard, Los Gatos, California
95032. The Reporting Person was organized in the State of New York.

            During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not (i) been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors), or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which the Reporting
Person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

                  Effective as of May 6, 2002, 1,143,454 shares of Class A
Common Stock of the Issuer, that were held by the Trust f/b/o Gary M. Lauder
u/a/d December 15, 1976 created by Leonard A. Lauder, as Grantor (the
"Distribution Trust"), were distributed (the "Distribution") to the Reporting
Person, a revocable trust. The Distribution Trust was a party to the
Stockholders' Agreement (as defined in Item 6 below) among certain stockholders
of the Issuer that is described in Item 6 of this statement. In compliance with
the requirements of the Stockholders' Agreement in connection with the
Distribution, the Reporting Person became a party to the Stockholders' Agreement
as well. By virtue of becoming a party to the Stockholders' Agreement, the
Reporting Person may be deemed to have become a member of a group for purposes
of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This statement on
Schedule 13D is being filed merely as a result of the Reporting Person's having
become a party to the Stockholders' Agreement. No consideration was paid by the
Reporting Person for the Distribution or for becoming a party to the
Stockholders' Agreement. The trustee of the Reporting Person reports separately
on Schedule 13G.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

                  The distribution of 1,143,454 shares of Class A Common Stock
that were held by the Distribution Trust to the Reporting Person was effected
pursuant to the terms of the Distribution Trust, and the Reporting Person became
a party to the Stockholders' Agreement for the purpose of allowing the
Distribution Trust to effect the Distribution in compliance with the
Stockholders' Agreement, to which it is a party.


                                       3


                  Except for sales, gifts and other transfers of the shares of
Class A Common Stock owned by it, the Reporting Person has no present plans or
intentions which relate to or would result in any of the actions described in
subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

            (a) As of May 6, 2002, the Reporting Person beneficially owned
1,143,454 shares of Class A Common Stock.

            (b) Gary M. Lauder, as the sole trustee of the Reporting Person, has
sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the 1,143,454 shares of Class
A Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person.

            (c) The Reporting Person has not had any other transactions in the
Class A Common Stock that were effected during the past sixty days.

            (d) Gary M. Lauder, as the sole trustee and beneficiary of the
Reporting Person, has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of
dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the 1,143,454 shares of Class
A Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person.

            (e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to
        Securities of the Issuer

            Effective as of May 6, 2002, the Reporting Person, in connection
with the Distribution, became a party to a stockholders' agreement (the
"Stockholders' Agreement"), dated November 22, 1995, as amended, among the
parties listed on Exhibit G attached hereto. The stockholders who are parties to
the Stockholders' Agreement have agreed to vote in favor of the election of
Leonard A. Lauder and Ronald S. Lauder and one designee of each as directors of
the Issuer. The Stockholders' Agreement also contains certain limitations on the
transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock. Each stockholder who is a party to
the Stockholders' Agreement has agreed to grant to the other parties a right of
first offer to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock of the stockholder in the
event the stockholder intends to sell to a person (or group of persons) who is
not a Lauder Family Member, as defined therein, except in certain circumstances,
such as sales in a widely distributed underwritten public offering or sales made
in compliance with Rule 144.

           The Reporting Person is not party to any other contract, arrangement,
understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise) with respect to the
securities of the Issuer.
