Berdoues Parfums Et Cosmetiques

Groupe Berdoues is an incredible family history shaped by 4 generations of perfumers and cosmeticians. The story began in Toulouse in 1902, when Guillaume Berdoues founded his perfumery. The town was then famous for its violets, which quickly became its emblem. In 1936 his son, Henri Berdoues, created a famous single-flower fragrance as a declaration of his feelings for the one he loved. The fragrance, “Violette de Toulouse” was soon exported all over the world and actively contributed to the company’s growth. The 1960s and arrival of Pierre Berdoues saw the company embrace the industrial era and modernisation, with the construction of a manufacturing site in Toulouse. Today, Sophie Berdoues, the founder’s great-granddaughter heads the Group.
