The story of SORA DORA

Expansion of the assortment with SORA DORA

At Petit Parfums we are proud to offer SORA DORA, a perfume brand with a rich history rooted in the passion and beauty of nature.

The story begins with Antoine Soradora, born in 1902 in the picturesque town of Loulé, Portugal. Growing up in a farming family, Antoine was surrounded by the natural scents of the countryside: lavender, wildflowers, fresh grass and the earthy scent of the land. While his family imagined him following in their footsteps, Antoine was drawn to the world of fragrance.

At the age of 18, Antoine made the courageous decision to leave his homeland and travel to France. He settled in the village of Gréasque, where a hospitable French family put a small garden at his disposal. Antoine transformed this space into a vibrant oasis of flowers, fruit trees and aromatic plants, a testament to his love for nature.

During his stay in France, Antoine explored the nearby city of Grasse, the heart of the perfume industry. There he met Etienne, an experienced jasmine grower. The two men quickly became friends, bonded by their shared passion for plants and scents. Together they started experimenting with creating perfumes, combining their knowledge and creativity.

After Etienne's death, Antoine continued their work and created his first perfume. This marked the beginning of SORA DORA, a brand that would continue his legacy. Antoine's journey wasn't just about creating scents; it was about capturing the essence of the places he loved and the emotions they aroused in him.

Antoine married Rose, a local woman from Gréasque, and together they had three daughters. He passed on his passion and expertise to them and ensured that the family tradition of perfumery would continue. Today, SORA DORA is a valued perfume brand that has been passed down for four generations. The fragrances in the 2021 collection reflect the power and emotion of Antoine's journey – from the rolling hills of Portugal to the aromatic gardens of Provence.

At Petit Parfums we invite you to discover SORA DORA, where every bottle is more than just a fragrance; it is a piece of history and a celebration of a dream fulfilled.
