Couleurs et parfums is a 1999 album by Carole Fredericks, an American-born singer most noted for her work in France, featuring a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" entitled "KAAI DJALLEMA" sung in Wolof and English. The album combines Fredericks' early experiences in the United States with the cultural influences of France. Couleurs et parfums was transformed into French lessons in 2003 and the album was reissued with the addition of one song, Veille, in 2007.
