What makes Caron an iconic perfume house?
Founded in Paris in 1904, Caron grew to become an authority in French haute parfumerie. From the beginning, the house has been known for bringing together opposites: tradition and innovation, strength and subtlety. This results in creations that enrich classic perfumery yet always remain surprising.
Founder Ernest Daltroff brought together his love of flowers and his open mind with the intuition of Félicie Wanpouille. Their collaboration gave Caron its own signature: daring, artistic and innovative. To this day, this heritage is at the heart of the house.
More than a century later, Caron continues to combine unusual materials and seek out contrasts. This creates perfumes with layered depth and enduring appeal, appreciated worldwide.
Classics that continue to inspire: Narcisse Blanc & Fleur de Rocaille
Narcisse Blanc and Fleur de Rocaille are among Caron's best-loved classics. Narcisse Blanc from 1911 introduced an innovative floral composition that symbolised the elegance of the Belle Époque. Fleur de Rocaille from 1933 became an icon of modern femininity with its powerful floral signature. In addition, Musc Oli, Tabac Exquis, Santal Précieux, Pour Un Homme de Caron Extrait and Oud Excelsa also reinforce the house's heritage. These icons combine tradition with modernity and continue to inspire new generations.What makes a perfume a true classic?
