the brand
JACQUES FATH PARFUMS
Born in France in 1912, Jacques Fath’s passion for fashion led to the opening of his first Couture house in Paris in 1937. His unique and glamorous style quickly attracted success, dressing the ‘young chic Parisian’ and influential clientele. Notably, Hubert de Givenchy, Guy Laroche and Valentino Garavani worked as assistants in his atelier, later founding their own Fashion Houses.
The perfumes’ saga begins with the launch of Chasuble in 1945 and later, with the iconic creations of IRIS GRIS and GREEN WATER in collaboration with perfumer Vincent Roubert, solidifying Jacques Fath Parfums’ legendary status in Haute Parfumerie.
the revival
FATH'S ESSENTIALS COLLECTION
The rebirth of Jacques Fath Parfums occurred in 2008 when Panouge Group acquired the brand and set out to preserve Jacques Fath’s essence of ‘Youth, Talent, and Joie de Vivre’.
Jacques Fath’s Creative Director, Rania Naim, collaborated with independent perfumers in 2016 to create the ‘Fath’s Essentials Collection.’ This range of fragrances embodies Jacques Fath’s vibrant personality and unique fashion style. The collection has expanded with VETIVER GRIS, JASMIN DE TOSCANE, and most recently, ENCENS COPAL. A trio of modern and daring fragrances crafted by IFF master perfumer Jean-Christophe Hérault.
the heritage
IRIS GRIS COLLECTION
The Iris Gris Collection is the rebirth of the mythical Iris Gris, known as one of the greatest perfumes, if not the greatest, unequalled since its creation. Launched in 1947, it disappeared the same year as Fath in 1954. Often copied and certainly never equaled, it remains unique and timeless.
It was unthinkable that this heritage remained prisoner of the past. Creative Director, Rania Naim, launched an international competition of perfumers to reproduce this exceptional fragrance as faithfully as possible. At last, the myth is reborn, thanks to two young talents unanimously chosen by a committee of experts: Patrice Revillard, Perfumer and Yohan Cervi, Creative Director of Maelström. Like a chrysalis turning into a butterfly, it is now known as: L’IRIS de FATH.
