EAU DES PRINCES

A Cascade of Minty Freshness, Distinctive of Princely Refinement - Introduced in  1850

Fragrance Story

The Eau de Cologne des Princes, born in the heart of a tumultuous 19th century and crafted by the expert hand of perfumer Alphonse Piver, was composed for all those whom a singular or noble destiny had raised above the ordinary.

In this world of constant ferment, it became the discreet emblem of an ideal of balance: its freshness embodied order; its restraint, grandeur. Its exquisite scent, marked by bold freshness, sculpted by herbs and softened by the warmth of woods, suited both the elegance of a handkerchief and the grace of personal grooming.

An impetuous burst of mint in all its forms seizes the senses like an icy breeze on the skin. The heart unfolds like a sunlit herb garden: lavender, rosemary, thyme, and sage blend into a vibrant accord, rich in character and nobility. 

Then comes the soothing finale, deep and enveloping. Cashmere wood, warmed with ambrox and musk, reveals a trail that is both sensual and silky, balancing quiet strength with instinctive elegance.

Inspiration

Under the auspices of its prestigious name, Eau des Princes embodies the spirit of an era
when perfume —the supreme art of distinction— defined both presence and intention. To the wearer, it imparts a noble bearing, a discreet radiance, an elegance that no century could diminish.

Made famous by a royal patent and carefully preserved for over two centuries, its formula still today delivers notes of exquisite freshness and unexpected modernity. It is that aromatic breath of air, light and free, that revives the spirit and invites joyful reverie.
