Perfume is a universal language whose cradle is nature. For 4,200 years, natural perfume, particularly lavender, has accompanied civilizations. Used since ancient Egypt for its medicinal and olfactory properties, lavender has survived through the ages: from the gardens of Babylon to Greek and Roman uses, all the way to the Middle Ages, when perfume became a symbol of health in Europe.

In France, since the 11th century, lavender has been recognized as a medicinal, aromatic, and fragrant plant, notably enhanced in the Eau de la Reine de Hongrie at the court of Versailles. Later, Grasse established itself as the world capital of perfume, revealing to the world the exceptional Provençal terroir.

Today, Franc 1884 celebrates this natural treasure in its "Heart of Lavender" case. Like rising smoke, the fragrance evokes a path toward light, a symbol of welcome and communication carried by centuries of history, from Phoenician sailors to the present day.
