A. Gravier

A. Gravier is a French fragrance name associated with classic mid-century parfumerie, appearing in historical fragrance records as a producer of traditional French compositions. The house represents the broader ecosystem of smaller French fragrance manufacturers that operated throughout the twentieth century, producing accessible interpretations of the dominant olfactory styles of their respective eras — chypres, fougères, powdery aldehydics — without the marketing investment or distribution reach of the major Parisian houses. Documentary evidence for current operations, website presence, and named founders is limited in publicly available sources, suggesting either discontinuation or very limited contemporary production. For fragrance historians, A. Gravier holds interest as a representative of the tier of French perfumery that supplied department stores, pharmacies, and gift shops with credible French-made scents at accessible price points during the period when French provenance alone carried significant commercial weight in fragrance retail globally.
