JEAN-CHARLES BROSSEAU

Jean-Charles Brosseau was France’s premier milliner, having established himself creating hats for Hermès, Grès, and Sonia Rykiel and other accessories for women. Ombre Rose is the greatest creation of this house, a scent which Brosseau fell in love with the moment he smelt it. It had such significance in this self-effacing man’s life and went on to inspire an entire genre of creations.
