In 1948, the world of perfumery was forever changed with the release of Fracas Eau de Parfum from the legendary house Robert Piguet.

The 1948 release remains a benchmark in the world of perfumery, proving that true classics never go out of style.
The fragrance belongs to the Floral family, making it a gentle yet passionate choice for modern women.
Fracas Eau de Parfum is positioned as a women's fragrance, perfectly suited for those seeking confidence and elegance.
In the form of Eau de Parfum, it offers richness and longevity that lasts for hours, with a medium trail, leaving a subtle yet memorable trace.
The fragrance is ideal for evening outings, romantic dates, or special occasions when you want to emphasize your femininity.
It applies easily to the skin, revealing its best facets, and harmonizes well with various clothing styles, from cocktail dresses to casual outfits.
Behind the creation of this masterpiece is the talented perfumer Germaine Cellier, whose work on Fracas became revolutionary in the use of tuberose and other floral notes.
Her bold approach and attention to detail allowed the creation of a fragrance that not only reflects the DNA of the Robert Piguet brand but also influenced many subsequent releases in the perfume industry.
