Nina’s Paris

Versailles 1672 , created for Kings

Founded in 1672 in Paris by Pierre Diaz, “La Distillerie Frères” was the first perfume to distill lavender and rose essences to embellish the gloves of the time.

Soon after, he became known as the “magician of aroma” , and became the official perfume supplier to the court of Versailles for King Louis XIV.

His rose essence was subsequently particularly appreciated by Queen Marie-Antoinette, who oversaw the purchase of the product herself.

A rare and royal authenticity

Drawing on this exceptional expertise, which was passed through the Diaz generations, exploration in blending of flavors and fragrances to create a unique line of flavored teas resulted in a tea which, today still remains one of the most unique teas in world.

L’Original Marie-Antoinette is a very delicate tea, flavored with apples & rose, which gains strength from the Ceylon tea base. The fresh hand- picked apples and roses come from the King ‘s Kitchen Garden of Versailles.

In 1778 Nina Diaz created the recipe of the cake “Ninasette” for Queen Marie-Antoinette. This recipe was passed down exclusively to women in the Diaz family over the centuries.
