About This Fragrance
Cabochard is a classic green chypre launched by Grès in 1959. Its name suggests stubbornness and self-will, matching the couture discipline and independent spirit associated with Madame Grès.
Scent Profile
The opening combines galbanum, aldehydes, and sage for sharp green brightness. The heart softens with jasmine, rose, and ylang-ylang, while patchouli, oakmoss, leather, and sandalwood form the dry chypre base.
Who It's For
It suits autumn and winter, formal outings, theatre, dinners, tweed, leather, and structured clothing. It is best for people who enjoy leather, moss, bitter green notes, and classic chypres rather than sweet florals.
