In the process of elaborating our range of perfumes, Gérard Gatti, our founder and perfumer of the house, put a priority on creating perfumes that last on the skin for a day – or even more! It took him almost two years to reach that level while wearing his creations himself but also constantly asking people around him to wear them in order for him to evaluate those technical aspects. When the fragrances met his expectations and only at that time he gave his final OK to launch. All our perfumes are made with a minimum of 18% concentration.

We are probably one of the fragrance brands using the highest percentage of natural ingredients because we love natural ingredients. Our name GEODORA means “the gift from the earth”, which stands as a tribute to those incredibles ingredients that nature and talented men give us to formulate our perfumes.
They make our fragrances so beautiful and shining. But we also like synthetics ingredients that help us to add some facettes like musc, fruits, Lily of the Valley, Gardenia, aldehydes and many others that we can’t have in natural ingredients. Synthetics also helped to be more long lasting.
First of all those bottles are – like all other items from our perfume range – are made in Grasse. They are the fruit of a long and huge savoir-faire of a company that is 200 years old and worldwide leader in the production of bottles and drums for the fragrance and pharmaceutical industry.
Secondly, our unbreakable Estagnon bottles made of aluminium is the best protecting bottle for our perfumes. This is because we use a lot of natural ingredients that needs to be carefully protected from air, light and warm temperatures.
Thirdly, unless any other glass bottle where perfume lasts a maximum of 2 to 4 years, our bottles are made to protect perfume for 8 to 12 years.
The footprint of our bottles is very low because they are sourced locally are about 25 times lighter than a similar volume in glass. Our bottles don’t need a box or cellophane, this is very good for you as well as for our planet.

How does it work? You buy a first bottle of any of our perfume in any of our 3 volumes, send them back to us and will have a 10% discount on any of our perfumes in any of our volumes.
Our solution has the merit of going further in terms of zero waste. With our Estagnon bottles, we are probably the only brand in the world to offer our customers in France (in our stores or through our website) the exchange of our bottles in a circular system. How does it work? You purchase an initial bottle of any fragrance in one of our three sizes, and for each of your subsequent fragrances, even if you change to a different GEODORA scent or size, you will receive a 10% discount in exchange for your empty bottle.
You can purchase our products in our boutique located in Grasse, 14 Place aux Aires as well as at the international perfumery museum in Grasse, in the stores mentioned in the store location section and in our online shop.

As our soaps are only made with 100% natural materials such as organic olive oil, water and essential oils, there is no additive ingredients like surfactant, colorant, amalgamate or others.
They are made from the finest ingredients through cold saponification. Their formulation contains very few ingredients, all of which are of natural origin. The vegetable oils, either olive or sunflower, are certified organic, and the cold saponification process ensures a high glycerin content. Our soaps contain 8% to 9% unsaponified fats. They cleanse the skin gently and provide excellent protection for your epidermis through their nourishing and moisturizing actions.
