Hello and welcome! Please understand that this website is not affiliated with Caron in any way, it is only a reference page for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by.

The main objective of this website is to chronicle the history of the Caron fragrances and showcase the bottles and advertising used throughout the years.

However, one of the other goals of this website is to show the present owners of the Caron perfume company how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!

Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table), who knows, perhaps someone from the current Caron brand might see it.

So what does it smell like? It is classified as an oriental fragrance for women. It begins with a fresh, cool top, followed by a light floral heart, resting on a mossy base. A cascade of fruits: bergamot, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon. Singular in calling forth woods and glades, with shades of bark, moss and fern. Provencal in conjuring up the garrigue with scents of thyme, basil, lavender and orange blossom. Besprinkled with a hint of rose, lily of the valley and cyclamen.
