Lancôme Paris is a leading international manufacturer and
marketer of perfume, cosmetic, and skin care products. It is
a prestige cosmetics division of L'Oréal (along with
Biotherm, Kiehl's, and others.)
The company began
in 1935, when its founder, Armand Petitjean was exploring
the ruins of a castle, Le Château de Lancosme, while
vacationing in the French countryside. Petitjean's
inspiration for the company's symbol, a golden rose, were
the many wild roses growing around the castle.
Lancôme launched its first five fragrances in 1935 at the
World's Fair in Brussels. The fragrances were: Tendre Nuit,
Bocages, Conquete, Kypre and Tropiques. Lancome expanded its
business into makeup and skincare products. One noteworthy
product was Nutrix launched in 1936 which celebrated its
70th anniversary in 2006
