Houbigant

Houbigant - Collection Privée - Quelques Fleurs Jardin Secret

Jardin Secret uniquely encapsulates the myth of an entire generation. Enveloped in soft wood notes and invigorating citrus fruits, this clear, stimulating fragrance blends with the spirit of bohemian life.

Bergamot, narcissus and sandalwood reveal a profoundly moving character filled with light, movement and a longing for the past. This fragrance breaks new ground with a bouquet of floral notes, sparkling citrus accords and a sensual woody base.

The fragrance

Jardin Secret is a modern olfactory interpretation of a mysterious garden: intoxicating, hypnotic and rich in floral notes, interwoven with a sea of flowers.

The top note evokes the brightness of daylight with the fresh dew of flowers, sparkling bergamot, yellow mandarin and lively neroli. The heart reveals a fresh, blooming bouquet of magnolia, narcissus and Provence roses, with a sensual hint of jasmine, iris, orange blossom and ylang-ylang. The gently rounded base unfolds with sandalwood, ambrette, white amber and modern musk.

Houbigant – Collection Privée

These precious fragrances represent a fragrance collection with special, natural and high-quality ingredients in exceptionally high concentrations. A guarantee of exclusivity, prestige and elegance. A golden label and matching ribbon adorn the bottle. The luxurious design is emphasised by the bell shape.

Mehr über Houbigant

Back in 1775, Jean-François Houbigant opened a shop on Rue Faubourg St Honoré in Paris, thereby founding what was probably, without him knowing it, France's oldest perfume house. A hand-painted sign hung in front of the shop, depicting a basket of flowers, which earned it the name ‘A la Corbeille de Fleurs’. At that time, Houbigant sold gloves, perfumes and bridal bouquets. Houbigant's fragrances were particularly popular with the aristocracy, which allowed his business to flourish. Jean-François Houbigant died in 1807 and his son Armand-Gustave took over the company. In the same year, Houbigant was appointed court perfumer to Napoleon and created a fragrance for Empress Joséphine. His client list included such prominent names as Marie-Antoinette of France and Queen Victoria, from whom he received the title ‘Perfumer to Her Majesty, Queen Victoria of England’ in 1838.

In 1880, perfumer Paul Parquet became a partner in the company and was to shape it like no other. Parquet turned Houbigant into a global business and revolutionised the entire art of perfumery in the process, as he recognised how important synthetic fragrances were to become. For his fragrance ‘Fougère Royale’, launched in 1882, he used artificially produced coumarin for the first time. At the time, however, this revolution was kept secret from customers so as not to cast any doubt on the quality.

From 1912 onwards, it was perfumer Robert Bienaimé who worked for Houbigant until he founded his own company in 1935. His most famous fragrance was ‘Quelques Fleurs’, also featuring groundbreaking new synthetic substances, which became his greatest success and one of the company's best-selling perfumes.

Until 1950, the two perfumers Paul Schving and Marcel Billot worked for Houbigant. Billot's ‘Chantilly’ from 1941 became particularly famous at this time. Despite this long and often eventful company history, we are still delighted to be able to offer you the timeless classics of Houbigant today.

Stille Wasser sind tief

Zuerst habe ich diesen Duft auf meiner Haut kaum wahrgenommen. Vor allem weil ich auf dem anderen Handgelenk einen anderen Duft hatte. Ich habe gemerkt, dass er frisch war, aber das war es erstmal. Aber nach einer Weile wurde der Duft immer intensiver. Die Frische und das Blut stiegen mir immer mehr in die Nase. Zuerst dachte ich, es käme vom anderen Handgelenk. Aber dort war der Duft schon lange verschwunden. Dieses Parfum stellt reagiert also ganz anders als übliche Parfums. Normalerweise sind die zitrisch, spritzigen Noten laut und verblassen aber schnell. Hier jedoch werden diese erst richtig betont, wenn die Kopf- und Basisnoten dazu kommen. Diese Kombination hält sich über Stunden, als feine und zarte Frische. Ich weiß nicht wie das geschafft wurde. Für mich ist das ein Wunderwerk❤️
