Jean-Charles Brosseau – The Parisian elegance of Ombre Rose

Jean-Charles Brosseau: Ombre Rose and French elegance

A Parisian house born of haute couture

Jean-Charles Brosseau is a Parisian designer who made his name in Parisian haute couture before founding his perfume house. In 1981, he created Ombre Rose, which immediately became a French women's classic: a refined rose-vanilla powdery floral that left its mark on a whole generation. The house carries on this heritage with a line of elegant women's fragrances, faithful to the icon's powdery signature.

The Parisian house's emblematic fragrances

The Jean-Charles Brosseau pantheon brings together Ombre Rose L'Original, Fleurs d'ombre, Ombre Azurite, Ombre Rose L'Original and Ombre Rose Gift Set: so many emblematic signatures of the house.

A timeless powdery signature

Jean-Charles Brosseau takes a unique approach in women's perfumery: loyalty to powdery notes, an olfactory family that has become rare in contemporary perfumery. The house develops its creations in variations around Ombre Rose and other signatures, with an absolute sense of French elegance.
