The Chanel equation

Le 17 février 2008 à 17:56 sur 1000fragrances

In the early 20's, Chanel launched several perfumes extremely rare today. They were all numbers and (2, 11, 14, 20, 21, 27, 55, 7) and it's hard today to imagine the story behind. Were they the labels Ernest Beaux put on the vials that Chanel choose? Or is there a special reason behind their (...)

Molyneux’s number 5

Le 15 février 2008 à 16:17 sur 1000fragrances

Luca Turin has a very interesting article on that perfume made my Molyneux and called the same as Chanel's. I was very happy when I read Luca's review because, independently, last week, with a romanian friend, we bought a sealed bottle of this perfume in Paris that will be exhibited in Bucarest (...)

Just seen it on ebay. A great finding. It's sad there is no juice inside!

The Natural Perfume

Le 15 février 2008 à 12:26 sur 1000fragrances

Yesterday I participated at a conference organized by the French Perfumers Society. The subject - Le Parfum au naturel - (the natural perfume) - a panorama of what natural is today (natural/eco/bio, etc), the labels (ecocert) and all the concerns/rw materials you can use or not to have a 100% (...)

Madame Grès’s first perfumes

Le 13 février 2008 à 11:29 sur 1000fragrances

Throughout her long career in fashion (from 1930's to 1980's) Madame Grès was often compared with a sculptor. Her long draped or pleated dresses resembled with ancient Greek sculptures, Indian statues or even Japanese drawings. During the first part of her career, the fashion house was named (...)

Guerlain : White Rose, Ode, Ambre

Le 8 février 2008 à 9:32 sur 1000fragrances

White rose is listed in Guerlain catalogue as a perfume created in the 19th century. The perfume that I sampled was from 20th century but seemed as picked some hours before, in a fresh English garden. It is a very simple perfume in the tradition of old flower extrait. It contains rose oil, (...)

Chanel : Ivoire and No 46

Le 7 février 2008 à 18:19 sur 1000fragrances

Ivoire (1932) Ivoire is one perfume that should be available today for all the vintage perfume lovers. It is an unknown and unspoken jewel. In the early 30's it was quite popular or at least considered important. Before smelling it I was able to find some short reviews in German magazines from (...)

Chanel - Sycomore (vintage)

Le 7 février 2008 à 11:16 sur 1000fragrances

For the Chanel Haute Couture show, the famous guests & celebs have received as a gift a box with Chanel Exclusives, that has recently been seen on e-bay. One of the perfumes (and the biggest surprise) was Sycomore but few were maybe aware of this rare and precious perfume. I did not smell yet (...)

The rarest Chanel vintage

Le 6 février 2008 à 18:58 sur 1000fragrances

Today we associate Chanel name with the little black dress, with modern art (cubism), black-white-beige and everything that is supposed to speak about abstraction. The history of No5 says that she wanted a perfume different that the smell of a garden, and by that opposed to what must have been (...)

Chanel Magnolia (1929)

Le 6 février 2008 à 11:24 sur 1000fragrances

This very rare perfume died too young as a delicate flower and many years I had doubts about it. I found references about it in some obscure German trade magazines were it was presented among other recent French launches. Recently I smelled it (in a rather bad health) but I was able to figure (...)

403 Myrrh Shadow - Bon parfumeur Paris

Un soir d’été en Provence, où l’anis herbacé et la douceur amandée des calissons se fondent dans un sillage solaire, résineux et délicatement gourmand.
