Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Perfume

July 1, 2009  5:24 pm


When World War II sent some of Europe’s best and brightest fleeing fascism across the Atlantic Ocean, one Ernest Daltroff, perfumer and founder of the House of Caron, was among those who boarded a boat and shipped off for America. The year was 1939 and, as the story goes, when Daltroff approached New York’s Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty came into view, and rather than drop to his knees and weep at her majestic beauty, he promised to create a perfume to commemorate the moment. Patrick Alès, the founder of Phyto haircare and the new owner of Caron, made good on Daltroff’s promise a few years back with Lady Caron, a fruity floral created in homage to independence that offers the perfect theme-based scent for the upcoming holiday weekend. If you’re looking for a kitschy/classy gift for the kind soul who’s letting you crash at her beach house this weekend, this might be it. Sweet notes of neroli, magnolia, peach, and jasmine mingle well with the waft of star-spangled banners waving in the air. To find a retailer near you, call (877) 88-CARON.
