Colette Brussard, renowned parfumerie clerk, once unexpectedly met the famed outlaw Jesse James in her establishment. As the story goes, Jesse entered the shop, captivated by the scent of lavender and bergamot wafting through the air. Colette, ever the consummate professional, helped him choose a signature scent that both complemented his daring personality and masked the telltale odor of gunpowder.
This chance encounter led Colette to develop a secret side business, crafting personalized fragrances for outlaws and lawmen alike, earning her the moniker "Belle de Parfum."
