In 1981, the famous fashion designer Pierre Cardin bought Maxim’s (1893), the renowned restaurant in Paris.

The first men’s fragrance launched by MAXIM’S DE PARIS PARFUMS was created with Pierre Cardin’s inspiration and through a collaboration between Pierre Cardin Parfums and American Cyanamid Company (Shulton - Old Spice – Nina Ricci - Pierre Cardin). SNDPI was responsible for Europe, while the perfumery (distributor) GARY FARN was responsible for the fragrance in America.

The box is grey and black, with red trim and lettering, and has a raised metal label bearing the letter M. The inside of the box is covered throughout with the M (Maxim’s).

The exquisite bottle features a raised metal (M).

Silver-colored cap

The beautiful packaging and exquisite, heavy glass bottle were designed by the famous designer Pierre Dinand and manufactured by Pochet du Courval, bearing the HP trademark, a global leader in luxury fragrance glass packaging.

The product was distributed in Greece by LAPAPHARM S.A., PHARMACEUTICAL AND COSMETICS INDUSTRY, 73 Menandrou Street - Athens, and was sold exclusively through us as authorized distributors.
