Fougère Royale by Houbigant is an aromatic green fragrance with roots that reach back to the groundbreaking original composition from 1882. Lavender, flowers, spices, and mossy woods form a classic fougère signature that feels cultivated, natural, and timeless.
The opening is defined by Mediterranean herbs, aromatic lavender, and gentle chamomile. Together, they create the impression of fresh plants, fragrant grasses, and green landscapes. The opening possesses clarity, yet feels pleasantly soft due to its herbaceous nuances.
At the heart, the floral-spicy Rondeletia accord combines with geranium and May rose. Cinnamon and clove bring a warm spice to the elegant floral bouquet, lending the composition additional structure and expression.
Amber, oakmoss, and patchouli lead the fragrance into an earthy, woody base. Coumarin and tonka bean evoke freshly cut hay with their mild sweetness, while clary sage continues the aromatic line. Fougère Royale combines traditional perfumery with refined naturalness and is suitable for all who appreciate green freshness, warm spices, and classic elegance.
