About Roger & Gallet
Roger & Gallet is one of the oldest French perfumery houses, founded in Paris in 1862 by Armand Roger and Charles Gallet, with origins tracing back to the famous Jean-Marie Farina formula. The brand built its reputation around fragrant soaps and floral colognes — the Jean Marie Farina Extra Vieille is the brand's heritage signature, a continuous link to early 19th-century European perfumery.
