The Comptoir Sud Pacifique perfume story begins in Tahiti with the introduction of the company's very first fragrance, Tiare, in 1976. In an effort to capture the most intoxicating scents of flowers, fruits, and spice, blended by nature and delivered by island breezes, Aloha Tiare was born. Exotic, yet simplistic, Tiare consists of the Tiare flower or Tahitian gardenia, vanilla, coconut, and ylang-ylang.
