Herat
Coquillete Paris
Herat is the signature fragrance of Coquillete Paris. Inspired by a poetry contest for young Afghan women, the perfume is a magnificent interpretation of the Afghan hashish – the black gold of that troubled country still torn between war and poetry. An enticing composition where tobacco, jasmine and incense blend in perfect harmony.

Coquillete Paris is an olfactory story of two women, Rosa Via & Elise Juarros. It was while creating fragrances for various fashion brands that, naturally, their aspirations to develop their own scents kept growing... until the day the two young perfumers decided it was time to launch their project. This is how Coquillete Paris was born in the fall of 2012.
THE NAME - Coquillete: Elise's nickname when she was a little girl. A word that spark, enthusiasm, playfulness, curiosity, but that also brings to mind a well-known type of pasta. Paris: the city where Elise and Rosa met.
THE CONCEPT AND PHILOSOPHY - Coquillete Paris is based on a vision of distinction and exclusivity. This confidential brand is a brilliant alliance of Italian elegance and high-perfumery know-how, cultivated with talent. Its rare fragrances illustrate an identity also rooted in values of excellence and artisanship. With an independent approach, Coquillete Paris conceives perfumes for people who despise conformism and who look for something different. Elise and Rosa passionately work on the different olfactory combinations, which are the results of constant and intense research. Only the finest ingredients are used. They are chosen with great care to ensure exceptional scents. As for the production process, every product is made of genuine and high-quality materials, and is handmade in Italy.
THE PACKAGING - The French-Italian brand also stands out for its alluring and singular packaging, which is worked manually by Italian artisans. Unlike many other Houses that feature their perfumes in a rather conventional manner, Coquillete Paris' fragrances are captured in a stylish case, where the bottle and the packaging are one. The case displays an essential look, and attracts the simple elegance and understated luxury. Made of paper, it is covered with black velvet, for a chic and classic final touch. Itis an idea of inseparability; that same feeling one can sense when finding a valuable treasure to never let go.
THE DISTRIBUTION - In line with its vision, Coquillete Paris has made the choice of an exclusive diffusion. For now, the brand is distributed by specialized perfumeries and concept stores in France, Italy, The Netherlands, the USA, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
