'Fougère Royale' Eau de Parfum by Houbigant 100ml
First introduced in 1882, Fougère Royale completely revolutionized the world of perfumes and established the art of modern perfumery as it exists today.
Originally created by Houbigant owner and chief perfumer Paul Parquet, Fougère Royale was the first “fougère” (or fern-like) perfume ever created, establishing a completely new fragrance family which remains today the most popular family in men’s fragrances: Brut by Fabergé, Paco Rabanne, Azzarro, Boss by Hugo Boss and Prada by Prada for Men all belong to this elite family.
Fougère Royale opens with an uplifting cocktail of sparkling citrus oils which blend into an aromatic bouquet of Mediterranean herbs, where lavender and Moroccan chamomile oil dictate the tempo.
A redolent heart follows, and the floral-spicy "Rondeletia" accord is gently revealed through rich geranium nuances and warm spices. A floral intermezzo showcases rare rose essences and absolutes, spiked by pepper, cinnamon and delicate carnation.
Finally, a grand finale of earthy, ambery and woody harmonies, where moss notes join a sensual patchouli theme enriched by warm coumarinic undertones of tonka beans and clary sage absolute.
