Henri Alméras (1892 – 1965) was a French perfumer, author, and painter.

Early life and career[edit]

Alméras was born in a garrison in Brittany, the son of an officer. In school, he excelled in chemistry. He performed his military service in 1913 and was sent to war the following year.[1] While fighting on the Macedonian front, he first met the couturier Jean Patou.[2] Upon returning to France, he worked briefly at the physics laboratory at Dunlop, before answering an advertisement in Le Journal to join Antoine Chiris in Grasse. There he trained as a perfumer for four years alongside Ernest Beaux and Vincent Roubert.[3] He left for Germany, working at a manufactory in the Ruhr, but soon returned to France. He was employed as a perfumer by Paul Poiret at the couturier's Parfums de Rosine as of 1923,[1] though certain sources suggest he had worked there since 1914.[4] In 1925, he left Rosine for the Parfums d’Orsay, working with Henri Robert, though quit soon after.[5] He was subsequently hired by Jean Patou, where he remained until 1933.[1] He left to work for Fragonard and several other houses. In 1948, he published his comic novella La grand’soif du trompette Bidard (The Grea’Thirst of the Trumpeter Bidard), inspired by his military service, under the pseudonym Henri de Vérac. In the late 1940s, he managed the Parfums de Luzy.[1] He also served as an advisor at Fabergé.[6]
