Cabochard was launched in 1959.

The austere Cabochard fragrance, which appeared back in 1959, became one of the first perfume products of the Gres brand.

Cabochard is the most famous perfume of the House of Gres. They "smell" Jane Fonda and Sade.
Initially, the “neck” of Cabochard was decorated with an elegant gray velvet bow. By the way, the 20th anniversary of this perfume was marked by Madame Gres with an Oscar for bottle design. Since 1984, the famous bow has taken on glass flesh, which has made the bottle even more refined.
In the design of the bottles, all the genius of Madame Gres as a fashion designer manifested itself. Even Christian Dior himself said about Alex that any object of her, be it a scarf or a perfume cap, is a small masterpiece ... "
