The Lesquendieu Brand
The promise of Lesquendieu : a true luxury fragrance, clean, natural and made in France. "We’ve relaunched five fragrances from our one hundred years of history and have created a whole new collection with the third generation of Lesquendieu at its helm. Our creations are assembled from the rarest ingredients, mainly of natural origin. From the maturation of the concentrate to going into production, all Lesquendieu perfumes are manufactured in the Grasse workshop, in the world capital of perfume. The fragrances are handmade and require many hours of passionate work. Each "Eau de Parfum" is finished with a pure 24 karat gold plated cap and label, box included. At Lesquendieu, nothing is left to chance."
The Story of Lesquendieu
LESQUENDIEU was created in 1903 at 5 bis rue de la Tacherie in Paris, by a young graduate of the Amiens School of Pharmacy: Joseph Lesquendieu. A member of the Board of Directors of the Chambre Syndicale de la Parfumerie de Paris and was named Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur in January 1926 for his remarkable contribution to the Perfume and Beauty industry. When Joseph Lesquendieu died in 1962, the House had acquired a good reputation. But in the absence of the founder, who was involved in every step of the creative process, the House ceased production and remained “dormant” from the beginning of the 80s until 2015, when the third generation of Lesquendieu made the decision to relaunch business activity.
The Founders
In 2015, one of the grandsons of the founder, Jérôme Lesquendieu, who grew up in a family of perfumers with well-established values, decided to revive the family House by bringing his vision combining know-how and modernity. To respect his grandfather’s legacy, he built a project from a dream, a real quest, and trained in every aspect of the business down to the smallest detail. Very quickly, Lucca Bernadou de Commarque, a Parisian artistic director working in fashion and luxury, joins the adventure. A shared vision and a great friendship between the two men will then emerge, and the legacy of the family brand will be successfully revived.
