Association François Coty

Presided by Véronique Coty, the association’s mission is to make known the work of its forefather François Coty. In order to transmit the man’s fascinating story, expose the beauty of his creations and honour its memory as a great perfumer, the association is working through two main axes, one dedicated to general public, the other to perfumer-creators in perfume industry.

“François Coty – A life of Fragrance” is Véronique Coty’s own personal collection. She’s continuously seeking the great piece to present it more and more complete to the public. A chronology of olfactory creations, from the first centenary perfume bottles signed René Lalique, to Coty creations after François Coty. Places for the exhibition are chosen to reflect part of the history or the perfumer’s attachment to French art and expertise.

The François Coty Award is an event produced by the François Coty Association. It gathers together the actors of the perfume world by annually rewarding the work of a perfumer-creator that recalls the audacious spirit of François Coty’s fragrances.
