Our perfumes for heritage
Chicane and ashy water
The first creations by Jacomo, inspired by sculptures from New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMa). The beginning of a prodigious story...
Eau cendrée, 1970: a powerful, refined fragrance from the woody citrus family. Chicane, 1971: the counterpart to Eau Cendrée. This fruity, woody, floral fragrance is synonymous with sophistication and luxury.
Silences and Jacomo by Jacomo
Silences, 1978: A sophisticated green floral, wise and sensual. A fragrance to be enjoyed in silence as a compliment.
Jacomo de Jacomo, 1980: A complex and exceptional spicy woody fragrance. Sober and elegant, it symbolizes the racy elegance of the man it represents.
Parfum Rare
Parfum Rare, 1985: a tribute to one of the oldest and most prestigious families in perfumery: the chypres. An oriental chypre in a crystal bottle whose pyramid shape symbolizes eternity.
Paradox
A duo of fragrances for women (1998) and men (1999) with a luminous, celestial expression.
Paradox pour elle is a pure, sensual fragrance belonging to the oriental floral family. Its masculine counterpart, with its woody, spicy notes, is a daring, sparkling fragrance!
