In the 1930s, Fouquet was invited to a soirée in the home of his friend on the hilltops of Megève, an exclusive ski village in the French Alps. The magic of Megève—the smell of the mountain air and the wood burning in the fireplace, the ambience created by that select party—inspired Fouquet to create a new exquisite scent: Nuit de Megève. Even today, Megève remains one of the most famous and upscale ski resorts in the world encapsulated by Fouquet's Woody Aromatic blend.
