Description
Immerse yourself in the seamless marriage of Haute Couture and Haute Parfumerie with the exquisite symphony of Montaigne Parfum. This fragrance, a manifestation of sensuality and sophistication, unravels a captivating tapestry of textures woven from its exceptional ingredients. The opulent essence of Indian sandalwood, celebrated for its exotic allure, engages in a graceful dance with mimosa absolute—an ingredient that encapsulates the quintessential charm of French allure. Montaigne surprises with delightful contradictions as mimosa, adorned with honeyed accents from orange blossom absolute, radiates palpable sweetness elevated by cassia absolute. The floral heart, imbued with a powdery and silky softness, finds a perfect counterpoint in the unparalleled mellowness of sandalwood. The olfactory journey unfolds further as vanilla, benzoin, and labdanum balsams converge, crafting a warm, unctuous trail that etches an indelible mark.
Montaigne transcends being a mere fragrance; it stands as a couture masterpiece, the embodiment of timeless French elegance that captivates the senses with every delicate note. It is an olfactory opus that seamlessly fuses the worlds of high fashion and perfumery, creating an experience that lingers as a testament to sophistication and allure.

STORY
For CARON's third boutique, gracing 34 Avenue Montaigne in the early 1980s, a bespoke fragrance emerged. Inspired by the elegance synonymous with the legendary Parisian avenue, Montaigne encapsulates Haute Couture in a bottle. A tribute to French women and their iconic grace, this olfactory creation mirrors the impeccable cut and sublime materials of a timeless garment, establishing Montaigne as a classic in the CARON collection—an irresistible allure with no turning back.
Did you know?... The Avenue Montaigne shop pioneered perfume fountains in 1984, allowing customers to refill bottles—an eco-friendly initiative ahead of its time, still embraced in several of CARON's stores today.
