The Story
Fougère Royale Absolue is a richer, more opulent interpretation of the original 1882 masterpiece. This 2016 Parfum concentration amplifies the classic fougère accord with a lavish dose of natural ingredients. It opens with a bright lavender and bergamot, then deepens into a floral-herbal heart of geranium and clary sage. The base is a warm, woody blend of oakmoss, coumarin, and ambergris, creating a scent that feels both timeless and modern.
