Operating since 1775, the House of Houbigant is the only fragrance house that has existed through four centuries of history.
Through these centuries, the perfumers of the House of Houbigant have made groundbreaking discoveries in the formulation of perfumes that have revolutionized forever the way perfumes are constructed. It is not an exaggeration to say that, without the House of Houbigant, modern perfumery as we know it today would not exist.
It all began with just a basket of flowers. One day in Paris in 1775, a young man, Jean-Francois Houbigant, hung a hand painted sign of a basket of flowers over his little shop in rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. From the start his fragrances found favour with royalty and the nobility. Houbigant taught the titled women at the Court of Versailles how to perfume their fans so that just a fragrant flutter would send out a romantic message.

Top Notes: The initial impression of Jardin Secret is a vibrant burst of citrus, likely dominated by Bergamot Absolute, lending a sparkling and slightly tart freshness. This is complemented by the green, dewy aroma of Narcissus, hinting at the floral heart to come.
Heart Notes: As the citrus top notes fade, a rich bouquet of floral notes unfolds. While the specific flowers aren't listed, the description suggests a profusion of blossoms, creating an intoxicating and hypnotic effect. This "thousands of flowers" accord likely includes a blend of white florals, perhaps jasmine or tuberose, alongside other delicate blooms. The mention of "citrus flowers" suggests notes like neroli or petitgrain might also be present, adding a touch of sweetness and depth.
Base Notes: The lasting impression of Jardin Secret is anchored by warm and earthy Patchouli. This provides a grounding counterpoint to the floral heart, adding a touch of bohemian sophistication. The "sleek wood notes" mentioned in the description likely include cedarwood or sandalwood, contributing to the perfume's longevity and adding a refined, woody depth. This combination creates a lasting aura of earthy beauty and unconventional glamour.
