Jaguar Cars Ltd, commonly known as Jaguar, is a renowned luxury car manufacturer headquartered in Coventry, England, within the United Kingdom. As part of the esteemed Jaguar Land Rover group, the company falls under the ownership of Tata Motors, a prominent Indian parent company. Jaguar’s impressive history dates back to its establishment in 1922 by Sir William Lyons, initially as a manufacturer of sidecars for motorcycles. Initially known as the Swallow Sidecar Company, the company later adopted the name Jaguar. Jaguar’s foray into automobile manufacturing led to its merger with the British Motor Corporation, solidifying its presence in the market.

In 1984, Jaguar marked a significant milestone by listing its shares on the London Stock Exchange and subsequently becoming a constituent of the prestigious FTSE100 Index. However, in 1989, the ownership of Jaguar shifted to Ford through an acquisition. Following World War II, Jaguar gained notable recognition through the introduction of a captivating range of sports cars. Despite commanding higher prices, these vehicles were deemed to offer exceptional value for money due to their luxurious features. Jaguar distinguished itself in the automotive industry by constructing powerful engines, which were utilized in both street cars and Grand Prix-winning racing cars. Notably, Jaguar claimed victory in the Le Mans 24-hour race four times during the 1950s, solidifying its reputation as a manufacturer of exceptional performance automobiles.

Under Ford’s stewardship, Jaguar expanded its product portfolio, introducing iconic models such as the S-Type in 1999 and the R-Type in 2001. However, in 2008, Tata Motors acquired Jaguar, further positioning the brand under Indian ownership. Additionally, Jaguar made a notable entry into the fragrance market in 1988 with their first men’s fragrance. The fragrance, named Jaguar for Men, combines notes of orange, lavender, green notes, mandarin orange, cassia, basil, grapefruit, anise, bergamot, cyclamen, nutmeg, carnation, gardenia, cinnamon, jasmine, caraway, sage, rose, geranium, leather, sandalwood, tonka bean, amber, patchouli, musk, oakmoss, vanilla, cedar, and tobacco. Over the years, Jaguar has introduced several fragrances for both men and women, each boasting unique and captivating scent profiles. Collaborating with esteemed perfumers, Jaguar has expanded its fragrance base to include 41 distinct perfumes, with the earliest edition dating back to 1988 and the latest launching as recently as 2022. Perfumers Amandine Clerc-Marie, Richard Herpin, Richard Ibanez, Dominique Preyssas, Marie Salamagne, Michel Almairac, Alexandra Monet, Philippe Romano, Bernard Ellena, Maurice Roucel, Vincent Schaller, Annick Menardo, Karine Dubreuil-Sereni, Steve Guo, Robertet, and Sidonie Lancesseur have all contributed their expertise to the creation of Jaguar fragrances.
