CAP DANTIBES | For Albert Fouquet, Antibes was heaven. In this charming village on the French Riviera, Albert enjoyed long holidays during the 1930s in the company of the elite of European aristocracy holidays that extended from spring until the last days of summer. At that time, only a few were privileged enough to enjoy the elegant and discreet luxury of spending the summer months on the French Riviera.
Unforgettable mornings were spent sailing in the Grande Bleue, golden sunsets were enjoyed from the gardens of the Eden Roc hotel, and balmy evenings were enlivened with exclusive celebrations and charming parties. Albert dreamt about these summers during the cold Parisian winters. Like any artist who strives for perfection, he spent many weeks delicately crafting a fragrance that captured the essence of his memories of those summer days.
The result was CAP DANTIBES. A fragrance that was made for the exclusive enjoyment of its creator and became a favorite in his private collection.
After so many years, it is a pleasure to share the originality of the best perfumes created by Albert Fouquet and help ensure they reach the hands of those fortunate enough to share his tastes.

EIGHT & BOB
EIGHT & BOB is a legendary fragrance brand that has a fascinating history dating back to 1937. The brand's story begins with Albert Fouquet, a French perfumer who created a scent that caught the attention of a young John F. Kennedy during a trip to the Cote D'Azur. Kennedy was so taken with the fragrance that he asked Fouquet to send him eight samples of the scent, as well as one for his friend Bob. Fouquet obliged, bottling the fragrance in a square glass bottle with a black stopper and packaging it in the same black striped pattern as the shirt Kennedy had been wearing when he met Fouquet. He labeled the fragrance "EIGHT & BOB," and it quickly gained popularity among Hollywood directors, producers, and actors. Unfortunately, the success of EIGHT & BOB was short-lived. Fouquet died in a tragic automobile accident in 1939, and production of the fragrance was halted shortly thereafter. However, the formula for EIGHT & BOB was preserved over the years, hidden away inside cut-away library books through two world wars, by the Fouquet family butler. Decades later, the fragrance was rediscovered and revived by Albert's great-grandson, who decided to bring the scent back to life and share it with the world. Today, EIGHT & BOB is a beloved fragrance brand with a storied history and a loyal following, thanks to its unique blend of classic French elegance and Hollywood glamour.
