Houbigant Paris

The story of the brand
Established in 1775, Houbigant is one of the oldest perfume houses in continuous existence. Milestones include Fougère Royale (1882), which introduced the fougère style to modern perfumery, and Quelques Fleurs (1912), one of the first true multi-floral bouquets. Today the house preserves its French lineage while composing elegant, long-lasting unisex perfumes.

The signature of the house
Polished French composition where luminous citrus, aromatics and refined florals meet noble woods, amber and musks, often with mossy fougère accents and creamy bouquet florals. Compositions are balanced, diffusive and memorable from first spray to drydown.
Extra sentence for semantics: Expect facets of bergamot, lemon, lavender, geranium, neroli, orange blossom, jasmine, rose, iris, mimosa, violet leaf, oakmoss, patchouli, vetiver, cedar, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka, amber, musk and coumarin in modern fougère, floral, woody, amber and citrus signatures.

Perfumers and collections
Historic creations by Paul Parquet and Robert Bienaimé sit alongside contemporary works including Essence Rare by Jean-Claude Ellena and La Belle Saison. Collections span Quelques Fleurs, Collection Privée, Collection Royale, Les Matières, Les Ambres and Orientale, plus discovery sets.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this brand
We love the house’s effortless French refinement: airy citrus and florals over mossy woods and an elegant amber-musk base. Distinctive solo and excellent for layering, from classic fougère freshness to plush bouquet warmth.
