A cacophony of exquisite notes, Eugenie is a fruity floral scent composed by the distinguished house of Rancé. The beloved wife of Napoleon III, the Spanish-born Empress Eugenie de Montijo was a prominent champion of women who advocated for equality of the sexes at a time when patriarchal power was the norm. Created to honour her memory, Eugenie is a light and delicate fragrance with a rich tapestry of ripe fruit aromas set against a backdrop of premium floral notes, including Florentine iris and jasmine from Grasse, the home of French perfumery.
