Houbigant Privée Collection – Royal confidential editions

Houbigant Collection Privée: confidential royal editions

The rare editions of a house founded in 1775

The Collection Privée brings together the most confidential pieces from Houbigant Paris, a house founded in 1775 and purveyor to the royal courts of Europe, from Joséphine de Beauharnais to Queen Victoria. Rare editions in powerful concentrations that carry the house's royal heritage into contemporary compositions.

The confidential editions

The Collection Privée brings together Mon Boudoir, Quelques Fleurs Royale Collection Privée, Quelques Fleurs L'Original Collection Privée, La Belle Saison, Quelques Fleurs Jardin Secret Collection Privée and Essence Rare — compositions in which classic French elegance finds expression in its finest concentrations.

The logic of the exceptional piece

The Collection Privée stands apart through its rare-piece character: the Privée extraits of Quelques Fleurs alongside exclusive extraits such as Mon Boudoir, La Belle Saison and Essence Rare. An approach that turns the icon into a collector's piece, in the great royal tradition of the house.

Who is the Collection Privée for, and when should you wear it?

The Collection Privée is made for lovers of opulent classic perfumery in search of aristocratic trails and powerful concentrations. The creations belong to the floral, amber, oriental and powdery families. If you enjoy the Collection Privée, you will also love exploring the Collection Royale (the heritage of Europe's royal courts), Caron and Lalique — two other French heritage houses at Soleil d'Or.
