A perfume tells a lot about the person who wears it. Determination, elegance, sensuality, frivolity, opulence… Perfumes shall be chosen as carefully as a piece of clothing so that they may perfectly befit each occasion!
Discover Le parfum Fragonard, a great, yet little-known Maison de parfum from Grasse, in the French Riviera, which just celebrated its 90 years of perfume.
Iris: The Perfumers’ Blue Gold
A pearl in the world of perfumery, Fragonard has chosen to celebrate the Iris throughout 2016. It takes years for iris bulbs, the perfumer’s blue gold, to deliver their precious absolute. Every participant of our November salons will receive a mini Iris perfume as well as delicately fragrant soap. These gifts are presented in cases beautifully decorated with watercolours.
Discover which fragrance suits you best at Les Salons d’Isabelle, our monthly French/English conversation event!
An Experience Out Of The Ordinary
”Entering Les Salons d’Isabelle instantly projects one far away from the ordeals of everyday-life, into a magical fairy tale setting of refinement, sophistication, beauty, grace, glamour and impeccable taste, delicious homemade refreshments, a magnificent and dramatic view of the Lac Léman and the Mont Blanc as a most fitting backdrop. Thank you, Isabelle ! I shall definitely come again!”
Eva Dahlgren, International business and energy lawyer, originally from Sweden
