Fragrance House
Founded in 1975 by the late, great, Master Perfumer, Yuri Gutsatz, Le Jardin Retrouvé was the very first niche fragrance house to be founded by a 'Nose'. Yuri had quite a life, fleeing both the Russian Revolution and then the rise of the Nazis, arriving in Paris in 1933. He created scents for many brands from Carven to Mary Quant and is credited as the very first perfume critic.
The House is still family owned and is currently being steered (rather beautifully) by Yuri's son Michel and his daughter-in-law, the artist Clara Feder. The collection combines original formulae created by Monsieur Gutsatz with contemporary creations by in-house Perfumer, Maxence Moutte.
The concept here is that different gardens appeal to different individuals at different times, and so we wander through Japanese gardens and summers gardens, gardens in Paris, Marrakech, Russia, the UK and in India, experiencing the different notes synonymous with these spaces. This is a celebration of nature and the diversity encompassed by each of these vegetal tableaux.
