Tiffany
Manhattan jeweller's restrained, Coty-produced fine-fragrance line.
Tiffany & Co. launched its first fragrance in 1987, composed by François Demachy and priced at a level — $220 per ounce — that signalled its ambition to stand alongside the jewellery rather than beneath it. The house's approach to scent has always been conservative in the best sense: restrained, beautifully made, and attentive to the materials rather than to fashionable trends. The fragrance licence passed to Coty, and the 2017 relaunch — a floral composed by Daniela Roche-Andrier — was the brand's first major new fragrance in fifteen years, a white rose and peony construction that positioned the line toward contemporary prestige femininity without abandoning the Tiffany reserve. Honorine Blanc contributed to subsequent releases in the post-2017 catalogue. The line has remained modest in scale relative to the jewellery empire's global recognition, functioning as a considered complement to the blue-box world rather than a volume business. For a house that has always treated its name as a controlled quantity, that restraint reads as intentional.

Each column is an era. Each colored band shows that family’s share of accord weight across every perfume the house released in that window. Bigger band = the house leaned harder on that family.
