Fleur de Rocaille

In 1933, Caron launched Fleurs de Rocaille, a floral bouquet opening on relatively discreet aldehydic notes. Setting the tenderness of flowers against the harshness of rock, the fragrance Fleurs de Rocaille (then written with an S) is a poem unto itself. Such a success that the Caron house decided to revisit it in 1993. Fleur de Rocaille (without the S, this time) is a grand bouquet of flowers, an entirely new contemporary creation.

The femininity of Fleur de Rocaille

The revisited Fleur de Rocaille aims to be very floral and ultra feminine. It is far more feminine and spontaneous than its predecessor. Fleur de Rocaille represents the spirit, joy and vivacity of women. The Caron woman is joyful, radiant, glad to be alive and a touch impertinent. Her fiery temperament makes her ultra seductive. Fleur de Rocaille is unique, like the woman, it resembles no other fragrance. The femininity of Fleur de Rocaille is one of contrasts, between strength and fragility, between softness and determination. Fleur de Rocaille is the fragrance of a woman who is gentle yet strong, utterly charming. The Caron woman is akin to a flower, one from the wonderful bouquet of Fleur de Rocaille.

The great olfactory bouquet of Fleur de Rocaille

Fleur de Rocaille resembles an enormous bouquet of flowers, extremely soft and tender. Fleur de Rocaille opens on a blend of flowers, namely violet, gardenia, lily of the valley and lilac. Its heart is made up of the most feminine of flowers, rose, along with jasmine and ylang-ylang. Luminosity, richness and exoticism are the main qualities of the composition here. The base, meanwhile, is deeper, drier and earthier. Cedarwood is paired with iris, amber reveals its balsamic effect and sandalwood offers all its creaminess. Finally, musks sweep their fine sensuality over the whole composition. As for the bottle, it is sober and elegant, dressed in flower petals that stand out in relief on the glass. A luminous fragrance, a blaze of fresh flowers mingled with spring blossoms… An entirely new, ultra feminine juice.

In 1933, the Caron house unveiled Fleurs de Rocaille, a highly floral fragrance. It was a great success, and Fleurs de Rocaille remained for a long time the best-selling fragrance in the United States. It was in 1993 that Caron decided to revisit it. The new Fleur de Rocaille aims to be more feminine and even more floral. It combines a great many flowers to create the grandest of bouquets. Both strong and fragile, the Fleur de Rocaille composition reveals the beauty of every woman.
