The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1899 by Houbigant, Coeur de Jeannette is a fragrance that embodies the elegance and sophistication of late 19th-century Paris. Created by perfumer Paul Parquet, this composition opens with a lush array of white florals—acacia, mimosa, lilac, and carnation—creating an air of delicate sweetness. As it settles into its heart and base notes, warm spices like clove and ambergris mingle with the soft musk and woody undertones of sandalwood, adding depth and complexity to the floral bouquet.
Apply this perfume in light layers to allow its nuances to unfold gradually. The floral top notes are bright but fleeting, so let it settle into the warmth of the base for a more lasting impression. Best suited for evenings or formal events where its rich complexity can truly shine.
