Lancôme is the epitome of feminine beauty and glamour with a
quintessential French touch. Founded in 1935 by Armand Petitjean,
Lancôme’s name was born when the cosmetic chemist encountered the
historic ruins of the Château de Lancosme while vacationing south of
Paris. The mystic yellow flowers that covered the estate grounds
inspired the golden rose emblem of the brand.
