The Story Goes On

Founded in 1808, Plisson has long embodied Parisian-born French luxury, excellence, and savoir-faire, cultivating a discreet yet enduring presence in history. From its beginnings in the Palais-Royal, the Maison has served influential figures—including Napoléon—by offering refinement without excess and craftsmanship without compromise.

Over the decades, it has remained faithful to this demanding ideal, creating shaving and skincare products of the highest quality while embracing innovation and modernity.

Today, this timeless legacy evolves into a new form.

Plisson: Elegance in Fragrance

Plisson now expands its universe into niche fragrances, a natural extension of the values that have always defined the Maison: precision, elegance, craftsmanship, noble materials, and the timeless power of symbols.

Guided by the artistic direction of Thomas Villeneuve, visionary co-owner and dedicated guardian of its family-run spirit, this new chapter honors Plisson’s heritage while venturing into new creative horizons.

With the same meticulous attention to detail and unwavering pursuit of timeless quality, the Maison continues to blend tradition with modernity in a refined, contemporary expression.

"For this inaugural collection, we have returned to the origins of Plisson 1808, inspired by Napoléon. Together with Isabelle, my wife and partner at Plisson, we have crafted fragrances where timeless elegance and noble materials come together in an audacious olfactory vision that reveals the invisible poetry of humanity to elevate and to conquer."

- Thomas Villeneuve, President of Plisson 1808

From Napoléon’s Morning to Modern Elegance

Uncovering fragrances reveals another facet of the refined rituals Plisson has long helped confident men cultivate, a natural extension of a heritage deeply rooted in the art of personal care.

These rituals were once epitomized by Plisson’s most illustrious client, Napoléon, renowned for his sophisticated and, for the time, unprecedented approach to self-care.

Known to indulge generously in fragrance, he began each day with the scented ritual of shaving—his Plisson shaving soap marking the first olfactory gesture of the morning, its essence lingering on his skin.

Ever devoted, Napoléon carried his favorite fragrance bottles with him everywhere, even on campaign, alongside the bespoke grooming tools Plisson crafted exclusively for him.

In this spirit, today’s fragrances are conceived as modern companions—daily essentials imbued with story, presence, and intention.

Six Stories, One Spirit

In the same spirit as Plisson’s iconic range of products, each fragrance is meticulously crafted in France from exceptional, noble ingredients, entrusted to master perfumers whose creations reveal not only a signature but a presence—luminous, distinct, and unmistakably Parisian.

This new story unfolds through six unique compositions, brought together under the evocative name Collection 1808, each capturing a distinct nuance and narrating a chapter of Plisson’s spirit and savoir-faire, inspired by Napoléon’s extraordinary life.

Together, they form a portrait in echoes: of a name, a silhouette, a man whose influence still resonates through the centuries. Universal and timeless, Plisson’s fragrances honor heritage, not as a constraint but as a foundation for its vision of modernity.

Timeless Modernity

In entering the realm of niche fragrances, Plisson does not seek to echo trends, but to affirm an avant-gardist position and continue building a long-lasting and engaging story.

To offer something rare : perfumes that speak not of fashion, but of character with a strong sense of modernity and forward-thinking, qualities embedded in the brand since its beginnings. A language of memory, of will, of style, of nobility.
