Product Description

Houbigant, Essence Rare Eau de Parfum 100 ml, Women's Floral Perfume. Houbigant Essence Rare Eau de Parfum 100 ml is a women's floral perfume. Created by Master Perfumer Jean Claude Ellena, this fragrance is a soft floral that dazzles with the beauty of its raw materials. It is a timeless perfume, which retains the classic French style, but clearer, more legible, more subtle and that gives pride, as in the past, to the materials; the flowers, the woods, more than to the concept. Essence Rare Eau de Parfum 100 ml is a soft floral that dazzles with the beauty of its raw materials. In 1973, as a young perfumer, just arriving in New York, my first assignment was to create a fragrance for the House of Houbigant with the help of an American colleague. The House wanted a classic perfume à la française, the name would be unveiled later.[...] In realizing my dreams, I had to demonstrate the years of workmanship I had acquired. I was going to do so by composing Essence Rare. Years later, I met the Perris family during a conference on Houbigant, the great perfumer of the 19th and 20th centuries and whose Guy de Maupassant vaunted the quality of his creations, well before those of Rimmel or Pivert, saying about himself that he had an exceptional nose capable of feeling the passage of a fox in a forest. It was that very night that I saw on the presentation screen the iconic image of a classic fragrance that had not aged: Essence Rare. I told the Perris family that I was behind this perfume. Here it is rewritten, not as it was it was removed from the market, but as I would like it to be. The idea of being able to evolve a perfume formula is another dream realized. I know that the public does not like changing a perfume formula, but personally, as a writer of smells, I liked this possibility. Like a writer who retouches their works. You do not think, you do not feel, the same way throughout your life. My experiences have built me, my sensibility has evolved. The perfume that I offer you today, is a rewrite, which retains the classic French style, but clearer, more legible, more subtle and that gives pride, as in the past, to the materials; the flowers, the woods, more than to the concept. I liked his few steps in the past. Jean-Claude Ellena, Septembre 2020 La Collection Privée is a collection of precious essences, blended only with pristine, pure, authentic ingredients in extreme concentrations to guarantee superior, potent, highly-nuanced fragrances. While being resolutely modern in the creation of its juices, the Collection Privée honors the history of Houbigant, giving a new life to the bottles and the names that have made the history of the house.
