Robert Piguet

Piguet - Fracas - Eau Fraîche

Fracas was created in 1948 by Germaine Cellier – an olfactory symbol of feminine eroticism. A fragrant icon, a milestone in the world of perfumes that has become a classic. Fracas Eau Fraîche is the second addition to the Fracas family after Petit Fracas. Perfumer Calice Becker's stated goal was to create a fragrance that is unmistakably descended from the great diva, but at the same time represents a reinterpretation. With a modern signature that is in tune with the spirit of the times and today's ideals of femininity.

Fracas Eau Fraîche celebrates life and youth with carefree lightness. Tuberose, jasmine, and gardenia shine brightly, proclaiming the timeless beauty of their great role model. Fracas Eau Fraîche replaces its dark and mysterious facets with feather-light, airy, powdery musk and hints of deliciously ripe mandarin.

La Vie en Rose, Fracas Eau Fraîche pays homage to the timeless beauty of its 1948 predecessor and reinvents the feminine fragrance icon. A delicate, lucidly shimmering white blossom dream in pastel pink that celebrates the joy of life. A floral dream in pastel.

The famous fashion designer and perfumer Robert Piguet was born in 1898 in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland. At the age of 17, despite fierce opposition from his family, he moved to Paris, where his first attempt to make a name for himself in the fashion world by opening his own shop on Avenue Montaigne failed. Nevertheless, he remained true to his ambition and initially worked for the fashion designer Paul Poiret and the fashion house Redfern. In 1933, the time had finally come to open his own salon on Rue du Cirque, which he later relocated to the Rond-Point des Champs-Élysées due to its continued success. During this period of his great breakthrough, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, and Pierre Balmain worked for him, all of whom would later found their own, now famous, houses.

Piguet always moved in artistic circles and so he designed numerous costumes for stage performances, for example for well-known names such as Jean Cocteau, Colette, Sacha Guitry and Édith Piaf.

In 1944, Robert Piguet set out to conquer the perfume market: He released the now legendary leathery chypre fragrance "Bandit," created by the exceptional perfumer Germaine Cellier, the first celebrity female perfumer ever. And as the name suggests, this fragrance lent the wearer a wild and rebellious aura, which Marlene Dietrich, among others, used. No less famous was "Fracas," also created by Cellier, which became one of the most famous tuberose fragrances of all time – Madonna is said to be a big fan of it. Both fragrances are now true classics, and since their reintroduction, they have been delivered in the simple, Bauhaus-inspired bottles that underline their historical yet modern character.

Robert Piguet could not find a successor for his fashion house and so it was to be closed in 1951, two years before his death.
