Fundraising - 2021

Fundraising by Les Eaux Primordiales

The luxury perfume brand Les Eaux Primordiales refreshes its capital and bolsters its funding

with two family group owner-managers and a family office

The luxury perfume brand Les Eaux Primordiales, founded by Arnaud Poulain in 2015, has found its way onto the shelves of many affluent stores worldwide (Harrods, Selfridges, Galeries Lafayette, Liberty…) in less than five years.

Established in a sector with very high added-value, Les Eaux Primordiales has continued to grow and open prestigious accounts worldwide.

Eager to have the resources to achieve its ambitions and loyal to its regional roots, Arnaud Poulain has welcomed two major shareholders from Hauts de France: Francis-Charles Pollet, founder of the Promod group, Thierry Letartre, owner of Laboratoires Anios, as well as Edouard Herbo, founder of the family office Keepers.

The funding brought by these new shareholders will help support the company’s impressive growth.

Arnaud Poulain, President of Les Eaux Primordiales :

“Les Eaux Primordiales is an exceptional human adventure which started five years ago. Despite a difficult 2020, we have continued to expand. Welcoming some major industry shareholders will help the company to happily continue to grow.

I would like to thank the teams at Largillière Finance, who were able to effectively quantify and express just what I wanted, and created a relaxed and professional setting for this strategic development process. ”

Nicolas Ibanez, Largillière Finance Partner:

“Arnaud Poulain took less than five years to successfully turn Les Eaux Primordiales, a premium perfume brand, into one of the biggest luxury names on the market. Despite the pandemic, the loyalty shown by its customers reflects the brand’s reputation and the quality of its products. The financial support offered by the new shareholders will allow the company to continue its strong international growth. ”
