Jean Kerléo

"1000 is a classic women's floral chypre created for Jean Patou and widely documented as launching in 1972. It is generally associated with perfumer Jean Kerléo and is known for an opulent bouquet built around rose, jasmine, lily of the valley, iris, and osmanthus over a mossy, woody base. The fragrance has a distinctly polished, elegant, old-world character rather than a playful or modern gourmand style. Reviews consistently describe it as sophisticated, powdery, floral, and dry in the base, with a refined chypre structure. The Eau de Parfum sits within the fragrance's established market presence and is remembered as one of Patou's notable feminine classics."

Reviews Summary

“User and critic commentary consistently describes 1000 as an elegant, old-school floral chypre with a peachy-osmanthus opening, a powdery floral heart, and a dry mossy-woody base. Reviewers often call it classy, austere, glamorous, and distinctly vintage in style, with prominent rose, violet-like powderiness, and polished soap-clean facets. It is especially appreciated by lovers of classic French perfumery rather than those seeking a contemporary sweet profile.”
