Style Edit: Henry Jacques’ haute parfumerie, from bespoke fragrances to Les Classiques de HJ
Anne-Lise Cremona, daughter of the founder, extends the maison’s heritage as it continues to evolve, opening its world up to a wider audience
Born of a passion for exquisite fragrance, the Henry Jacques story began in 1975 near Grasse in southern France, the historical heart of French perfumery. Founder Henry Jacques Cremona was inspired to treat scents as an artistic medium capable of encapsulating memories and emotions. From the outset, he pursued excellence and rarity while developing an encyclopedic knowledge of the finest natural raw materials. His was a vision of sensorial depth and perfection that eschewed mass production.
This commitment is best embodied by the house’s quintessential craft: Sur-Mesure, or bespoke perfumery. Here, the client embarks on a detailed consultation that maps their tastes, lifestyle, cherished recollections and deepest emotions, enabling the Henry Jacques perfumer to craft a singular, personalised fragrance. An archive of around 3,000 unique formulas – amassed by the atelier over decades on behalf of its discerning global clientele – forms the backbone of this intimate alchemy.
