Beginnings
The founder of Le Jardin Retrouvé, Yuri Gutsatz, began the first niche perfume house at his home in Paris. On a street named after a flower, Cour Jasmin, he and his wife Arlette raised three boys and a business, with a perfume lab in the house.
Haute Parfumerie
Yuri used the classic French haute-parfumerie ethos, with high quality ingredients sourced from his own choice of trusted suppliers across the world. Eaux de parfums macerated and matured for up to six weeks, not a drop was rushed or hurried. Original containers from many suppliers from Grasse are still held in the Le Jardin Retrouvé archives. Each bottle was designed by Arlette and hand poured by the perfumer himself.

The Return of Le Jardin Retrouvé
Yuri and Arlette’s last surviving son, Michel, and his wife Clara Feder took over the helm in 2016 and knew immediately that the roots of Le Jardin Retrouvé should remain French. Perfumer Maxence Moutte, raised in Provence, came on board. The new perfumes were made in Paris to old methods and from old formulas, but with modern safety compliances firmly in place.

Michel and Clara
In a stroke of serendipity, Michel and Clara were both schooled less than half a mile away from each other in Paris, not knowing that one day the two of them would be reviving the world’s first niche perfume brand, right here in their home city, just streets away from the birthplace of Guerlain, Dior and Chanel.
