Currently perfumer Jean Jacques is creating refined fragrances

A unique olfactory signature
Since its founding in 1904 (!), Caron has been the lead example of pure genuine passion within the classic French perfume world. The founder Ernest Daltroff was one of the perfumers who formed the perfume industry and whose influence is still noticeable nowadays, just like Jacques Guerlain and Ernest Beaux of Chanel. Together with his creative director and maîtresse, Félicie Wanpouille, Daltroff created legendary fragrances including Narcisse Noir (1911), N’aimez que moi (1917) and Tabac Blond (1919). The aromatic Pour un Homme (1934) is seen by many French as 'the' classic fragrance for men.
A new creative tandem
Since 2020, businesswoman Ariane de Rothschild and perfumer Jean Jacques determine the course of Caron. They combine their shared love of fragrance, luxury, and tradition to bring the house of Caron into the 21st century. In addition to a focus on the classics of the brand, they create contemporary perfumes of the same exceptional quality.

Floral fragrances celebrate the delicious scent of flowers, being the richest source of inspiration for perfumers. 

The use of flowers in perfumes have been used since antiquity; from soft delicate flowers like freesia, muguet and blossoms, to narcotic flowers like jasmine, tuberose and gardenia... 


Enjoy, and smell the roses!

Jean Jacques worked for 22 years at Takasago, this Japanese company is one of the largest producers of fragrances and flavorings in the world. Here he created perfumes such as Piano Santal for L'Orchestre, Gentleman Only by Givenchy.

Since 2019, Jean is the house perfumer of Caron and together with Ariane de Rothschild, who took over the company, he developed four new perfumes for this iconic perfume house; Rose Ivoire, Rose Ébène, Tabac Noir and Tubéreuse Merveilleuse.

“I want to formulate with my hands, I want to get dirty, to touch and to smell, to really follow my nose and have a much more intimate and primitive relationship with nature." This is the motto perfumer Ernesto Collado lives by. With his honest and unusual fragrances, he creates 100% natural and unfiltered perfumes. By deliberately not filtering the fragrances they preserve their natural aspect. You can see this in small particles in the fragrances, pure nature.

&nbsp;

Ernesto Collado Sala elevates his love for hiking and nature into perfumes, inspired by the smells from nature only. How does a hike through Northern Spain smell like during fall, winter, spring and summer; the forest, the trees, the grass, the flowers, the salty breeze from the sea coast from miles away?

&nbsp;

It is Sala’s mission to capture these smells during his walks into a fragrance. With this he creates 100% natural and unfiltered perfumes. He deliberately does not filter the molecules or ingredients to preserve their natural aspect. Whereas other perfumes are clear (colored) fluid, you can see that there are small particles drifting in Ernesto Collado Sala’s perfume.

&nbsp;

In the series Landscape Scents he captures three places and seasons. CALA, the coast in BOSC, the summer full forest and in MUGA a spring walk along the river of the same name.

&nbsp;

Bravanariz means "brave nose" in Spanish. The subtitle 'smelling wild' captures exactly what the charismatic actor and perfumer Ernesto Collado does. Literally capturing the natural scents of the pristine landscape of north-eastern Spain.

Ernesto Collado Sala has captured our hearts with his charming personality and his love for storytelling.

Master perfumer Olivier Cresp works at Firmenich and is the co-founder of Akro Fragrances. It came as no surprise to anyone that Olivier would enter the perfume business: his family history is deeply rooted in perfume. Both his father and grandfather bought and sold natural raw ingredients in Grasse. It was quickly decided that Olivier would work with perfume just like his family. However, he did not start his journey in France, but in the United States where he now works for perfume house Firmenich.

Olivier: 'I was literally born in to the world of perfumes. My family heritage introduced me to the “pure colours” of perfume since my childhood. I developed my olfactive memory during that time and a real passion emerged. I’m always on a quest for beauty, for a certain aesthetic. Once the aesthetic is found, I focus on its strength and unforgettable trail.'

Patricia de Nicolai, owner and perfumer of NICOLAÏ, is praised by Luca Turin as "one of the unsung greats in the world of perfumery", and we fully agree. A pioneer in niche perfumery, Nicolai took the courageous decision to launch her own independent perfume house back in 1989. She builds on a tradition of elegant French perfumery and uses refined natural raw materials with a chic personal style. Because of her striking creativity and craftsmanship, Patricia was the first woman to receive the Best International Perfumer award from the French Association of Perfumers in 1988.
Her perfume New York by Nicolai is rated with 5 stars by Luca Turin as 'one of the greatest fragrances in history'. Also her home fragrances (room sprays, scented candles, bamboo sticks) are much loved for their quality and longevity!

Perfumer Philippe Bousseton about 8 Mars 1764: "This powerful perfume recalls Carl Andrea Pozzo di Borgo's journey from the Corsican maquis to the court of Czar Alexander I. Fresh, spicy citrus scents are blended with the full warmth of Russian leather. We developed this fragrance as a contemporary interpretation of the past, by structuring rich, ancient ingredients in a modern way."
