Marie Jeanne

About Marie Jeanne

Marie Jeanne is a French fragrance brand rooted in Grasse, the historic center of perfumery. Founded by Georges Maubert, the house is closely linked in its storytelling to the Maubert family's long relationship with natural raw materials and the Robertet tradition. Its identity is built less around theatrical branding and more around the origin, texture, and traceability of perfume materials.

History

The brand was founded in 2014 in Grasse. Its name is presented as a tribute to the founder's grandmother, Marie Jeanne, giving the house a personal and familial dimension. Rather than treating perfume only as a finished luxury object, the brand emphasizes the journey of ingredients: citrus from Italy, vetiver from Haiti, sandalwood from New Caledonia, patchouli from Indonesia, and resins from Siam can all become part of one concise composition.

Philosophy & Signature Style

Marie Jeanne's philosophy centers on material clarity, sustainable sourcing, and traceability from cultivation to harvest whenever possible. The green glass bottle and wooden packaging evoke a laboratory vessel or raw material container, reinforcing the idea that the fragrance itself should remain the focus. Its perfumes often feel edited, legible, and close to the skin rather than loudly decorative.

Iconic Fragrances

Notable fragrances include Vetiver Santal, Tonka Lavande, Jasmin Patchouli, and Iris Pallida. Vetiver Santal is especially representative because it places two strong natural materials, Haitian vetiver and New Caledonian sandalwood, at the center of a clean woody structure. The result reflects the house's preference for transparent raw materials, restrained design, and modern wearability.
