Téo Cabanel
Bringing perfume back into your life.
Téo Cabanel was founded in 1893 in Algiers by Théodore Cabanel, a French chemist who began composing handkerchief quintessences and precious Eaux de Cologne, building a loyal clientele that would eventually include the Duchess of Windsor. The house relocated to Paris in 1908, establishing offices in the Impasse du Cadran, and produced some two hundred fragrance formulas across its early decades. After generations of quiet continuity, the house was inherited in the early 2000s by Caroline Ilacqua, who revived it in 2005 through a partnership with master perfumer Jean-François Latty — a craftsman who took his first steps in perfumery in 1965 and remains deeply committed to natural materials and French tradition. The new Téo Cabanel balances historical reverence with contemporary honesty: quality ingredients, fair prices, and environmental responsibility. All fragrances are manufactured in France, and the house's stated ambition is simply to put the pleasure of wearing perfume back at the centre of everyday life.
