Gres

Imperial Feminity.

The very first Cabochard, inspired by Alix Grès’ character, is for those who intend to play nothing but the main role. This composition is tailored for a star, a Divine Diva, a strong character capable of strokes of brilliance who plays her self-assertive role to perfection.

Cabochard makes a strong impression, embodying audacious, determined and occasionally capricious femininity. There is never any question of sharing the limelight.

Green Chypre.

Captivating and mysterious.

A strong and timeless icon, Cabochard is a tribute to bold, spirited women. A unique and prestigious creation with determined elegance. Free. Strong. Bold.

Let’s play the innocent.

Believe it or not, I am the essence of purity. I seem to have come straight from heaven, just like Ginger Lily from the mountain tops.

The fragrance inspiration and creation are based on a love story between Cabotine de Grès and the Ginger Lily flower: the two names are inseparable. Native to the Himalayas, Ginger Lily is best known as the flower used in stunning Hawaiian Lei garlands.

After almost 30 years on the market, the fragrance still contains this remarkable flower with its dreamlike, feminine quality.

Floral Aldehydic.

Suprising, sensuous, captivating.

The fragrance opens on a surprising whirlwind of mandarin, ginger and ylang-ylang as a prelude to the outburst of a unique floral accord. In the heart note, tuberose’s and hyacinth’s sensuous corollas mingle with ginger lily. This floral symphony lies on a drydown blending patchouli, sandalwood, musk and blackcurrant.

Like no other.

One of life’s undeniable truths is that if you want a great role that fits you like a glove, it is better to write it yourself. This idea would certainly have chimed with Alix Grès, the founder of the eponymous fashion house, who adored her work and the actresses she so glamorously dressed with a firm and masterful hand.

A woman both inspired and inspiring; the perfect role model. Madame Grès is above all the perfume of an iconic woman for generations past and present, who turn towards this bygone age imbued with modernity in search of unparalleled refinement. 

Exquisite and assertive notes, fused with floral and fruity accents along with sandalwood and leather, lend it a beautifully vintage style that boasts a distinctive uniqueness.

Oriental Floral.

Delightful citrus grapefruit and pineapple chords mingle with beguiling peppery cardamom in the head notes. An incredibly floral bouquet gives the heart of the scent its opulence and aesthetic appeal. A hint of sandalwood, fine vanilla, oriental patchouli and charismatic leather complete the scent, giving it an unmistakeable signature.

Let’s play the game of fascination.

I have an aura and a power of attraction of which I am not even aware. Inspired by jewellery, I am precious and gifted. Don’t you envy me? Influenced by the world of jewellery, Cabotine Gold reflects the fine metal’s beauty, luxury and passion. Like a beautiful adornment, this compelling fragrance exudes a sense of opulence and sophistication.

Oriental Floral.

Elegant, alluring, enchanting.

The fragrance is warm and compelling, opening with a light-hearted burst of tender mandarin, melon and mild pink pepper notes. At the heart, sensual white flowers create a soothing, beguiling effect. Together with peony and jasmine, they express all the perfume’s consummate femininity. Mild bourbon vetiver, earthy patchouli and soft amber compose a wonderfully exotic base.

Let’s try a little tenderness.

I am delicate, I am pure femininity in bloom. But be careful, even pale pink roses have thorns that can prick!

There is no doubt that Cabotine Rose is the original Cabotine de Grès’ little sister: it shares its characteristic fragrance style: easy-to-wear, delicate and elegant, with a floral freshness and a strong signature. However, Cabotine Rose asserts a prickly yet romantic personality of its own.

The fragrance inspiration and creation are based on a harmony of two sensual and captivating flowers: Cherry blossom, the symbol of spring and renewal, and Jasmine Pikake, a flower celebrated for its radiant

Floral Transparent.

Endearing, playful, irresistible.

The first whiff of the fragrance is about transparent freshness, embodied by cherry blossom, pear and dewy green leaves. Then the fresh top melts into soft, sensuous floral notes of pikake jasmine and tuberose spiced up by a touch of pepper. Precious sandalwood and vetiver unfold their woody smell in the drydown on a bed of mellow musks.
