Much of Lancôme‘s history is rooted in the streets of Faubourg Saint-Honoré, Paris’s tres chic arrondissement. Looking at a Lancôme counter today of luxurious creams and high-performing lotions, it’s hard to imagine that at the start, it was a boutique with just three perfumes and two eaux de Colognes. But the boutique’s first fragrances were an immediate success with Parisian women, and with a passion to provide women with all things beautiful, founders Guillaume d’Ornano and Armand Petitjean would move on to skincare and cosmetics—launching a multi-tasking repair cream and a pink-red rose-scented lipstick that would remain their bestseller for decades ... until now.
