The birth of a legend

The birth of a legend

By the beginning of the 1930s, Ernest DALTROFF had already established a reputation in the fragrance world. Persistently pushing the boundaries, his next project planned to be even more eccentric: creating the first masculine fragrance. 

Although our founder’s audacity didn’t stop there… He saw the introduction of a revolutionary fragrance with an innovative and unique trail: pairing lavender and vanilla for the very first time. 

Pour Un Homme de CARON was an instant hit when it was launched in 1934. It was an olfactory shock. 

Pour Un Homme : CARON's signature spirit bottled

“The perfect balance between the fusing freshness of lavender and the sensual opulence of vanilla. An elegant alchemy that has become emblematic!” Jean JACQUES, CARON’s in-House perfumer  

Masculine and feminine. Fresh and sensual. Understated and opulent. Masculine and tender. Daring (and successful) in its quest of contrasts, the harmonious Pour Un Homme de CARON fragrance quintessentially embodies our style.  This unmistakably CARON style, fuelled by unexpected encounters, olfactory frictions and a transcendental tension of elements that seemingly oppose one another.  

Staying true to its authenticity since 1934

Why change a winning formula? And since Pour Un Homme de CARON has consistently proved itself as a perfume par excellence, it has only been slightly modified over the last 87 years. One of the keys to CARON fragrances’ success is the extreme quality found in its ingredients.   

Such a fresh and aromatic composition can only be created using the finest varieties of French lavender which is exactly what Ernest DALTROFF did.
