Before it was ever a bottle, perfume at L.T. Piver was first a gesture. In 1774, a shop named “À la Reine des Fleurs” opened in Paris, selling a lavender-scented cleaning solution then used to refresh leather gloves, a common practice among glove-perfumers of the time. Above the door hung a richly illustrated sign, depicting “A la Reine des Fleurs” carried on a cloud and surrounded by three cherubs, a symbol the house still carries today. At this stage, the vessel itself mattered less than the gesture and the sign: it was the sign that first gave the house a face. In 1799, Michel Adam’s son took over the business, before dying without an heir in 1805. His cousin Pierre-Guillaume Dissey then took over the succession alongside Louis-Toussaint Piver, the two men running the house together for nearly twenty years, until Piver found himself alone at the helm in 1823, upon Dissey’s death, and gave the house the name it still carries today: L.T. Piver.
