Reims Parfums was created by Jean-Philippe Vidal, a theater actor and lover of perfumes who fell in love with the city of Reims in France when he joined its national drama center in 1992. Joining forces with perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, Vidal released his first three eaux de parfum in 2019: L’Eau des Sacres, L’Eau Gothique and L’Eau de Reims. His perfumes all express a love for the history and cultural heritage of Reims, drawing on famous characters in French lore and legend, such as Clovis, Joan of Arc, Louis XIV, Victor Hugo, and Esmeralda.
