Social:Comité Colbert
Comité Colbert, headquartered at 29 Boulevard de Courcelles, 75008 Paris, France, is an association "to promote the concept of luxury."[1]
In 2026, the organization gathered 65 members for “Hidden Treasures, 250 Years of Franco-American Luxury Stories,” an exhibition at New York City's The Shed which focused on the cultural exchange between France and America via objects created by French luxury houses.[2]

It was founded in 1954 by Jean-Jacques Guerlain, son of French perfumer Jacques Guerlain.[1] The association has more than one hundred members, most of which are French companies in the luxury-goods industry.
