HIGH LIFE 55 T he history of Parfums Henry Jacques is not only a family affair, it is also a love affair. Embodying nearly half a century of excellence and creativity through serving the world’s greatest, Parfums Henry Jacques breathes the very essence of its founder, Henry Jacques Cremona. It was Henry Cremona’s inexhaustible passion for perfume and an encounter with one of the last great noses of the old French Perfume tradition in the 1970s that inspired him to set up his perfume house in 1975. An avid traveler with an obsession for rarity and perfection, he traveled the world over to seek the best ingredients. The brand instinctively found its legitimacy in the universe of the discerning few and the exquisite creations soon become treasures for connoisseurs. On the outskirts of Grasse, the very hub of French haute perfumery since the 17th century, stands the Parfums Henry Jacques laboratory. Over here, time stands still – perfumed dreams and impulses hold sway. The remoteness has always been a necessity to help materialize the client’s longings and memories.
