Our Chalon formulations blend together essential oils which have known mood-boosting benefits, such as lavender (known to be relaxing) and zingy citrus such as mandarin and grapefruit, which are uplifting and energizing.

All of our Chalon fragrance formulations contain revolutionary HaloScent® technology, a new generation of biodegradable profragrances which delivers a halo effect by releasing not only one, but two perfume molecules over time. This unique innovation sustains the fragrance’s richness and fullness, ensuring a long-lasting olfactory experience.

We work with world-class Parisian perfumer Alexandre Freile to develop our luxurious fragrance formulations. Our process is inspired by traditional Parisian perfume-making methods and we honor this through our careful extraction, distillation and blending techniques.

Our founder Jaimee Lupton saw a lack of representation of luxury fragrance at mass and wanted to make luxuriously fragranced, beautifully packaged body care both accessible and affordable. Jaimee teamed up with an esteemed fragrance house to develop Châlon’s signature scents alongside world-class Parisian perfumer Alexandre Freile, and designed the minimalistic packaging in-house to look elegant in any home or business.

Our passion for luxuriously fragranced, beautifully packaged body and home care is boundless, so we have several new products in development. Be sure to follow us on @chalonparis for updates on any new product releases.

We have designed Châlon to have an intricate series of fragrance notes that, much like eau de Parfum, will unfold throughout the day. Everyone carries scent differently, so we encourage you to try them all and see which ones you like most. You can try layering a body wash and body lotion in the same scent to create a stronger fragrance, or mix scents to create a fragrance combination to your personal taste and preference.

Formulas and Ingredients

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally-ocurring substance found in many parts of the human body, including the skin, eyes and synovial fluid of the joints. As a humectant, it is capable of retaining over one thousand times its weight in water. As we age, production of hyaluronic acid slows down and we start to lose hydration, volume and plumpness in our skin’s structure. Topically applying hyaluronic acid via beauty and skincare products can help reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, while retaining moisture in the skin and creating a plumping effect. When the skin is protected and hydrated, increased skin cell production can take place, as the skin isn’t busy fighting for hydration. This leads to smoother, plumper skin cells.

Hyaluronic acid, known for its hydration and moisture-locking benefits in facial care, is equally essential for hands and body, particularly when this skin is exposed to environmental stressors. By integrating this hydrating powerhouse into your routine, you extend its benefits, combating dryness and fostering a radiant, youthful glow.
While Chalon is dermatologically tested and formulated with high-quality ingredients, including essential oils, it has not been formulated especially for sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend you patch test our product on a small area on the inside of the arm or bend of the elbow first.

All our products undergo human skin patch tests by a third party agency and under the supervision of a registered dermatologist.

While our products have been dermatologically tested and proven to be safe on adults, babies and children have delicate skin that responds differently to adults, so we would not recommend them for babies or children.

Everyone’s needs during pregnancy are different, which is why we recommend checking with your healthcare professional before introducing any new products into your regimen.
