FIOLE x Le Jardin Retrouvé
Le Jardin Retrouvé owes much of its success to the support we receive from our retailers around the world. That's why we like to find out a little more about how they found us, what they like about our company, and their own plans for the future. This month, we contacted the London-based founders of Fiole, Samuel and Josh, to learn more about their journey.
How did you discover Le Jardin Retrouvé?
We discovered Le Jardin Retrouvé while planning our trip to Esxence in 2022. We mentioned to a mutual friend, Karen Marin, that we were planning to start a conversation with the brand, and she replied that she already knew it well and would be happy to introduce us to its co-founders. We called each other before Milan and instantly fell in love with the brand, its history, and, of course, Michel and Clara. When we finally met in person, it felt like we were old friends, and we immediately knew we wanted to start working together.
What do you like about Le Jardin Retrouvé?
The brand stands out for many reasons. It is vegan and strives to be as natural as possible. The packaging is beautiful and the fragrances are diverse, accessible, and interesting. They seem to blend classic perfumery with contemporary style, while adhering to our rigorous quality standards. But what we love most is that Michel and Clara have taken a brand with an exceptional heritage and ensured that everything they do honors the past and paves the way for the future. Many brands could learn from them when it comes to sustainable practices and how to keep a perfume brand at the forefront of protecting our planet, “the garden we live in,” while effortlessly maintaining luxury and beauty.
“Le Jardin Retrouvé combines classic perfumery with contemporary style.”
What are your business plans for the future?
Fiole is constantly evolving. We are currently launching our branded gift sets, where we have listened to our loyal customers and created signature collections for each of our wonderful brands. This means that our customers still have access to our Fiole Fragrance Finder, but if they fall in love with a brand, they can explore it in more detail. In the coming months, we also plan to host many more in-person events and introduce a few other top-secret products that will solidify Fiole's position as the home of fragrance discovery.
