Caron - Lady Caron
The idea for this perfume goes back to the era of World War II: When Ernest Daltroff, founder of the house of Caron, arrived on his escape from the Nazis and the Gestapo as an immigrant in New York and saw the Statue of Liberty, he had a splendid idea: he wanted to show his gratitude to the country that has given him freedom by dedicating a perfume to it.
Unfortunately, he did not have the time to keep his promise. But when Patrick Alès took over Caron in the late 1990s and read Ernest Daltroff's memoirs, he decided to make his dream reality: Lady Caron was born!
The Fragrance
The fragrance by perfumer Richard Fraysse was originally created on the occasion of the opening of the Caron boutique in New York's Madison Avenue.
Lady Caron opens with an olfactory triad of magnolia, jasmine and neroli. Sweet as freedom itself, a fruity-floral heart unfolds with notes of raspberry, peach and delicate rose. A base of sandalwood and oak moss gives this fragrance a solid foundation- like the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty...
