Montaigne

Description

Montaigne is dominated by a thoroughbred bouquet of yellow jasmine and mimosa blossoms delicately embroidered with exotic balms, gentle spices and Indian sandalwood. The 2007 edition echoes the original Montaigne, created by Firmenich in 1986.

An exquisitely luxurious jewel of a scent, formerly reserved for the happy few

History

Once reserved for the happy few, Montaigne was re-released in 2007 to a wider public of equally demanding women. The name Montaigne alone is already a statement of intent. It is the name of the prestigious avenue in Paris where Caron’s boudoir-boutique is located, and where numerous French and international luxury brands have there most stunning showcases. And then there’s the juice itself. A majestic floral-oriental scent, this is the rebirth of a true couture perfume. The campaign reveals a drawing of a delicately posed modern woman. The naked woman, garbed entirely in Montaigne bottles, evokes the impalpable garment that this perfume truly is. The succinct tagline states: ‘The art of wearing Caron today’. Modern, minimalist, sensual.
