Eight & Bob
Eight & Bob is a prestigious brand of perfumes that is known worldwide for its distinctive, exclusive fragrances. The origin of the brand dates back to the early 20th century, and the story behind its founding is both fascinating and unique.
The founder, Albert Fouquet, was a French aristocrat and perfumer of exceptional talent. Fouquet developed his own perfumes for private use and sometimes gifted them to friends. One of his most famous creations is the fragrance we know today as Eight & Bob.
The story behind Eight & Bob
The story goes that Fouquet was on vacation on the French Riviera in 1937 when he met a young American student named John F. Kennedy. JFK was so impressed with Fouquet's fragrance that he asked if he could make a sample for him. Fouquet agreed, and a few months later, Kennedy received a box with the fragrance. The box included a letter in which Fouquet explained that the fragrance was limited in availability because the essential ingredients of the fragrance came from a rare plant from the Andes. What makes this ingredient rare is that it could only be harvested two months a year. He named the fragrance "Eight & Bob" because Kennedy's brother had called it that in his thank-you letter.
After Fouquet's death during World War II, the production of Eight & Bob was halted. The brand remained forgotten for decades until the formula was rediscovered, and the brand was reestablished in the early 21st century.
Today, Eight & Bob is a globally recognized brand known for its refined, timeless fragrances. The original fragrance of Eight & Bob remains one of the brand's most popular creations, loved for its complex, sophisticated blend of aromatic and woody notes. The limited availability and exclusivity of the brand contribute to its popularity among both perfume enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
Fragrance
Although Eight & Bob started with its signature perfume, the brand has since introduced a diverse range of fragrances that are equally refined and complex. Each of these fragrances has its own unique character, but they all share the commitment to quality and craftsmanship that is characteristic of the Eight & Bob brand. Each of the 6 perfumes tells a story, for example, about the places that inspired Albert Fouquet and has a unique scent that is distinctive and memorable. An example of this is the Champs de Provence, a fragrance inspired by the fragrances of Provence. It has a fresh and lively base mix of bergamot, orange, and pear, floral top notes of jasmine, rose, and orange blossom, and a heart of ambroxan, moss, and mate.
In addition to the traditional Eau de Parfum, Eight & Bob also offers Extrait de Parfum, which provides a more intense fragrance experience. The variants Agneta and Guèthary of this Extrait de Parfum are characterized by a scent that lasts longer and is generally more powerful than the standard Eau de Parfum. This increased intensity is due to the higher fragrance concentration in a Extrait de Parfum.
It doesn't matter which fragrance or extrait de parfum you choose, you will always enjoy the carefully developed fragrances of Eight & Bob, each exuding elegance and class!
Grooming
In addition to their refined range of perfumes, Eight & Bob has also developed a line of high-quality grooming products. These products share the same attention to detail and quality that is characteristic of the brand, and many are infused with the unique fragrances that have made Eight & Bob famous. An example of the products is the Shower Gel E&B Amenities which comes with a scent of Arabian jasmine, white musk, and neroli, taking your senses on a mystical journey over brilliantly clear water, reflecting like a beautiful sunset. Furthermore, Eight & Bob has a aftershave, body milk, hand cream, hand soap and lip balm.
