The Quelques Fleurs L’Original Shower Gel by Houbigant Paris is a luxurious bath and shower gel that gently cleanses the skin while surrounding it with the House of Houbigant’s legendary floral fragrance. Created in 1912 by visionary perfumer Robert Bienaimé, Quelques Fleurs was revolutionary: instead of a simple, single-flower scent, it showcased an intricate blend of many blooms, forming the first truly multifloral composition.
This pioneering creation features a radiant bouquet of orange blossom, carnation, iris, jasmine, lily of the valley, orchid, rose, tuberose, ylang-ylang, and heliotrope, enriched with a distinctive green tarragon accord. Bienaimé’s daring use of aldehydes—nearly a decade before the debut of Chanel No. 5—cemented the fragrance’s place in history. Over a century later, Quelques Fleurs L’Original remains an enduring icon, bringing a touch of heritage luxury to every shower.
