Fragrance Story

Inspiration

Biarritz was one of Albert Fouquet's essential destinations. After his stay in Honfleur at Christian’s residence, where days were spent between Les Planches beach and the La Touques racetrack in Deauville, the two would travel to Biarritz. There, they were joined by Simon, arriving from Burgundy, and Thomas, coming from northern Spain. Both were men of the land whom Fouquet entrusted with managing Burgundy’s most coveted vineyards.

The purpose of the meeting was to receive a detailed report from Simon on the year’s progress at the estate and to coordinate preparations for the September harvest.

Once the professional matters were addressed during the afternoon in a meeting room at the Hôtel du Palais, where they stayed, the four transitioned to enjoying the deep friendship they had built over the years.

The next morning, promptly at nine, they gathered at the Clubhouse of Le Phare golf course, ready to show their competitive side in pursuit of the annual championship title: Christian and Thomas against Simon and Albert.
