Launched by Grès in 1990, three decades after Cabochard, Cabotine is an aldehydic floral by Jean-Claude Delville built around ginger lily, a Himalayan flower captured on the living plant. Mandarin, ginger and ylang-ylang open onto wild hyacinth and tuberose, before a base of patchouli, sandalwood, musk and blackcurrant. Its green stopper is sculpted with flowers.
The Cabochard bottle revisited by Thierry Lecoule: frosted glass and a green stopper sculpted with flowers, which replace the bow of the older bottle.
Thierry Lecoule designed the bottle by revisiting Cabochard’s. According to the collectors’ blog Carnet d’émotions parfumées, he replaced the older bottle’s bow with flowers in rounded, abstract shapes, with five petals and a heart, for a bottle filled with flowers.
Perfume Intelligence describes a square bottle in frosted glass, topped with a green flower-shaped stopper that two similar flowers extend into a bow. The house sees in it a harmoniously curved shape, a stopper that evokes dreams, and a green that underlines the fragrance’s natural character.
