Fragrance style & accord

Fougère Family

The Fougère family (meaning "fern" in French) does not smell like real ferns, but instead evokes the damp freshness of a forest. It is built upon a classic accord of lavender, oakmoss, tonka bean (coumarin), geranium, and woods. It is the classic archetype of 20th-century masculinity.

Olfactory family: Fougère

Character & evolution

How does this family behave?

It provides a balanced evolution: opening clean and camphoraceous, settling into a spicy floral-green heart, and drying down into an earthy woody base with a sweet, long-lasting touch.

Usage advice

Best occasion & season

Highly recommended for daily work, formal appointments, and general wear in spring and autumn. Its structured profile conveys neatness, grooming, and professionalism.

Best season: Spring and Autumn
