L'histoire de la marque
An explorer at heart and passionate about aviation, Jean Max Estéban loved to tell how the company that bears his name was born from his love at first sight for a young artist, a perfume lover. To win her over, he imagined finely decorated totem objects, which he imbued with precious notes.
His desire: to share his emotions and the infinite poetry that this world inspired in him. What followed was a succession of encounters and friendships. Among their circle of friends, stylist Primrose Bordier, queen of color, quickly enhanced the first collections and convinced them to expand their creations.
Collection after collection, the art of perfume reinvents itself and creations continue to charm the eye as much as the senses. All over the world, Estéban perfume objects are messengers of a story, bearers of a connection.
For over 45 years, Estéban has never stopped creating captivating and irresistible perfumes, to which one becomes attached because they make life and home more beautiful.
