In 1924 the legendary designer, JEAN PATOU was widely perceived as the world’s most innovate and successful fashion designer. When he launched his first fragrances in that same year his rationale was brilliantly simple. Patou adored women....all women and so as a homage to brunettes, blondes and redheads all over the world his first foray into fragrance matched scents to hair color and appealed to everyone. Ever since then, the House of JEAN PATOU has shaped the world of fine perfume with iconic scents such as JOY, SUBLIME and 1000 that have immortalized its reputation as a symbol of quality and prestige. That reputation continues today with the new collection Jean Patou Collection Heritage with three fragrances Chaldee, Eau de Patou and Patou Pour Homme, reformulated by house perfumer, Thomas Fontaine to showcase the rebirth of the House and to satisfy the continuing demand by perfume aficionados around the world. Back in 1927 when Perfume Chaldee was first introduced, it became a sensation. At that time women wore short skirts and showed their bodies and the emancipation of women was in its beginnings. Chaldee was the first to have introduced sun-tan oil on the beaches, which becomes available to the modern elite. Huile de Chaldée became so popular then... The fragrance is oriental, floral, spicy and powdery, with accentuated oppoponax notes, amber, flowers and spices. Today's Chaldee evokes the opulence of La Belle Epoque, at the time of freedom and changes.
