The most successful revue of the year in London is Charles B. Cochran's 1926 Revue at the London Pavilion. One of the scenes in it is entitled 'Les Aromes de Coty' and features the various Coty preparations.</p><p>Mlle, Spinelly, the French leading lady of the revue, appears in this scene as <b><i>Parfum Paris</i></b>, Other actresses represent <b><i>La Jacinthe, L'Or La Violette, La Rose Jacqueminot, L'Origan, L'Emeraude</i></b> and <b><i>Ambre Antique</i></b>. </p><p>All of these figures were reproduced in a remarkable window display at Dickins & Jones. Each figure stood in a gold frame with a background of black velvet, against which the wonderful design and coloring of the dresses was shown most effectively. In the perfumery department of Dickins & Jones there was an equally attractive display, with a large powder box with a 'living' puff standing just opposite an important entrance. Throughout the whole of the display the <i>Puff</i> distributed to the public little sachets, and also sprayed them with perfume. </p><p>The display lasted for ten days and on one afternoon Mlle. Spinelly devoted her entire time to it, autographing all specialties that were purchased during that time." </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw3WtmC_iXknmheaSpEAgWCcADQc5MHdpDuUmuK3orhx6_gvSvW6f_JW4DPOUHINQlhWpBhSAsfT2JfMa6ErnnklLxWp8z58QBoXgIPxtQiyusqqUA6BW61mOlucQXvWPji06qVb-wjC0kQLZ6b1h-MSOzOKkZsDZfPkhIGnqHckmp1jeoeIEar1DSILs/s508/dem.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="380" data-original-width="508" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw3WtmC_iXknmheaSpEAgWCcADQc5MHdpDuUmuK3orhx6_gvSvW6f_JW4DPOUHINQlhWpBhSAsfT2JfMa6ErnnklLxWp8z58QBoXgIPxtQiyusqqUA6BW61mOlucQXvWPji06qVb-wjC0kQLZ6b1h-MSOzOKkZsDZfPkhIGnqHckmp1jeoeIEar1DSILs/s16000/dem.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p>Debussy's Plus que Lente was performed.</p>GHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08581508408018361307noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269907039759814571.post-91342620285745412442023-06-14T23:42:00.006-04:002023-06-14T23:42:49.130-04:00Dulce Vanilla by Coty c1999<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br />So what does it smell like? It is classified as an aldehydic floral fragrance for women. It begins with an aldehydic top, followed by a sweet floral heart, layered over a warm, woody, powdery base. Suggestive and so delicate, but lingering. That was the effect that Coty was aiming for when they created Nuance. Hyacinth, jonquil, roses, jasmine and a hint of oakmoss buried deep down.<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Top notes: aldehydes, jonquil, bergamot, estragon, lemon, cinnamon, plum, peach</li>
<li>Middle notes: honey, hyacinth, ylang ylang, jasmine, orris, carnation, linden, Oriental rose, orange blossom, violet, lavender, herbs</li>
<li>Base notes: ambergris, cedar, leather, melilot, Mysore sandalwood, oakmoss, Mexican vanilla and Indian musk</li>

<a name='more'></a>Violette Pourpre was a favorite fragrance of the late Anastasia Romanov. Anastasia tried many perfumes but always returned to her beloved violet. The violet signified "I'll always be true" in the Language of Flowers. Anastasia was a vivacious and clever girl, who had long flowing auburn hair sparkling with gold highlights, she possessed mischievous blue eyes, she was both sharp and had a tomboyish flair. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpDNHjP5SLggEunKHyufztLIT1PTz3tsBakDGWBuEYaZ1AaVXB8UIk86bwUz7wJGjBNLckM85JnAZEu1sL88TC7osWrzH-19zEfqhUz_fMJnRFp6GJt7iNKsCwjDwE6IV77t7CaG5FpHI/s800/ann.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="408" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpDNHjP5SLggEunKHyufztLIT1PTz3tsBakDGWBuEYaZ1AaVXB8UIk86bwUz7wJGjBNLckM85JnAZEu1sL88TC7osWrzH-19zEfqhUz_fMJnRFp6GJt7iNKsCwjDwE6IV77t7CaG5FpHI/w326-h640/ann.jpg" width="326" /></a></div><br /><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><h3 style="text-align: left;"><u><br /></u></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;"><u>Fragrance Composition</u>:</h3></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">So what does it smell like? La Violette Pourpre is classified as a soliflore fragrance for women. Since violet extract is very hard to produce, a blend made up of synthetic and natural extracts of other ingredients was composed to make an accord of violets, most notable of these was the addition of ionone and linalool.</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Top notes: cassie, almond, bergamot, orange peel, geranium, linalool</li><li>Middle notes: violet, orris, rose, tuberose, ionone, jasmine, mignonette</li><li>Base notes: vanilla, tolu balsam, musk, civet</li></ul></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"> In the 1920s and 1930s, it was customary for perfume companies to introduce the idea that women of certain complexion or hair color would be better suited to particular perfumes.

<u>Fragrance Composition</u>:</h3>
<br />
<br />

<li>Top notes: citrus, living magnolia, rain forest orchid</li>

<li>Base notes: vanilla, cocoa, amber, musk, caramel, creme brulee, exotic woods</li>
</ul>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<u>Fate of the Fragrance:</u></h3>
<br />
Discontinued. Still being sold in 2002. Please note that the original color of the juice was a pale pink, these older bottles will now have aged to a deep yellow or orange shade, this is due to the natural ingredients oxidizing over the years. This is a good way to know you have an older, original formula.<br />

It it took Coty three years of research to find a name and image that appealed equally to women and men of all age groups. Focus interviews, a marketing research tool, showed that women admire Loren very much. "They like her career, her life, her role as a mother, and that she has remained married to one man," said Marjorie D'Ambrosia of Coty. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
Coty invested $5 million in network tv and print marketing campaigns for the fragrance.<br />
<br />
The commercial for the perfume was filmed at the convention hall at the Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas on April 28, 1980. Two hundred and fifty Coty executives and salespeople were invited to watch the filming and live presentation introducing the new perfume. A single spotlight was poised over a single crystal bottle of the parfum. You can watch the commercial below.<br />

<br />
Sophia Loren made appearances behind velvet ropes at various department stores such as Famous-Barr in St Louis, to help promote her fragrance and to sign autographs. Sophia Loren said that "It is earthy, warm and loving. Everything that being a woman means."<br />
<br />
The Sophia line was immensely successful. Stores such as Carson Pirie Scott in Chicago sold $600 worth of Sophia products in one hour, while JC Penney in one district wanted re-orders of $10,00 PER store. The huge Sears network had an overall increase of 15% in all fragrance volume during October, the month of its launch in 1980.<br />
<br />
The Sophia fragrance line was priced at the high end of the moderate market. The 0.25 ounce perfume retailed at $22.50.<br />

Nokomis by Coty: launched on March 1, 1997. According to a report in The Circle (June 1997), Coty's newest perfume, Nokomis, means “grandmother” in Ojibwe.<br />
<br />
The name Nokomis, was a character of the grandmother of Hiawatha in the poem "The Song of Hiawatha" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.<br />

</ul>
I do not have any notes for this perfume, however, I would surmise that the Au Coeur des Calices perfume may have contained essences that evoked fresh, springtime flowers. Knowing the bases and ingredients Coty used in his floral compositions, I believe the following bases may have been used: Flonol, for a orange blossom-neroli facet, Rhodinol for rose, methyl ionones for violet, and Bouvardia for a fresh floral bouquet.<br />
<br />
Natural absolutes of rose and jasmine may have played their part. Additional floral essences of lilac, ylang ylang, narcissus and lily of the valley were ingredients used by Coty in his other perfumes and may have been included in Au Coeur des Calices. A top note of bergamot could have given the composition a light, airy effect.<br />

<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Top notes: hyacinth, aldehyde, geranium, bergamot, ylang ylang</li>
<li>Middle notes: rose, violet, orange blossom, tuberose, jasmine, heliotrope</li>
<li>Base notes: oakmoss, ambergris, tonkin musk, orris, clove</li>
</ul>
<br />
A general Hyacinth base made use of phenylacetic aldehyde, small amount of cinnamic alcohol, ionone and rhodinol. The phenylacetic aldehyde provided a green, powdery floral hyacinth note, with a touch of sweet clover honey which made up most of the perfume. This effect was heightened with the addition of cinnamic alcohol which provided a spicy hyacinth sweetened with balsam and intensified the green powdery nuance. Ionone gave a sweet woody violet/orris floral note while rhodinol accented the powdery rose aspect with a touch of fresh geranium.<br />

<u>Fragrance Composition:</u></h3>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So what does it smell like? it is classified as an oriental fragrance for women.</div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Top notes: bergamot, labdanum, cinnamon, carnation</li>
<li>Middle notes: heliotrope, rose, orris, opoponax, olibanum, patchouli, violet, jasmine</li>
<li>Base notes: labdanum, Ambreine, ambergris, vanilla, tonka bean, vetiver, civet, musk, oakmoss, sandalwood, styrax, musk ambrette, benzoin, cedar, cistus, vetiver</li>
</ul>
<div>
</div>
</div>
<div><br /></div><div>
François Coty used the "ambreine" accord from the chemist Samuelson in his composition of L'Ambreine, it was then used for L'Ambre Antique two years later. The "ambreine" accord has notes of bergamot, vanillin (or ethyl vanillin), coumarin, and civet, usually with woodsy patchouli and sandalwood, rose notes, labdanum, vetiveryl acetate, heliotropin, and nitromusks as additional base notes.</div>

Over the years, Coty often used special colors when packaging their perfumes. These colors variations often changed according to the different packaging used. Most bakelite are solid colors while the lucite caps often had marbling veins. Please note that the caps can fade color if exposed to sunlight, one example is that the pale pink can often turn almost white. Here is a list of known color coordinations that I have found, you will usually find the caps for perfume bottles are colored in the following:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Red: generally used for L'Aimant, but also used for A'Suma , L'Origan</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Dark Pink to Fuschia: generally used for L'Aimant in later years</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Light Pink to Lavender: generally used for La Rose Jacqueminot, but also used for L'Origan, Meteor, Muguet des Bois, A'Suma</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Orange to Peach: generally used for L'Origan, used for A'Suma</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Dark Green: generally used for Emeraude, but also used for Chypre, La Rose Jacqueminot, L'Aimant, A'Suma, Le Vertige, Muguet, Le Nouveau Gardenia</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Jade Green: generally used for Chypre, Le Vertige, Emeraude, A'Suma, Meteor, Oeillet France, Le Nouveau Gardenia</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Blue: generally used for Paris, but also used by L'Aimant, L'Origan, Chypre, Le Vertige, Muguet des Bois, Iris, Le Nouveau Gardenia, and L'Ambre Antique</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>White: generally used for L'Origan but also used for Styx, Chypre, Meteor, Muguet, Muse, A'Suma, Le Vertige, Le Nouveau Gardenia</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Black: generally used for Styx, but also by Le Vertige, Lavande, L'Origan, and Muse</li>

<i>"Chypre: Essence of the fragrant East; nightingales in a temple garden; indolent spiced winds adrift from Moghra flowers in bloom; jade gods in jewelled shrines; veils of mystery and the clash of golden anklets; the fragrance of the woman of oriental temperament, dark-eyed, dark-haired, of swift, tempestuous emotions."</i></blockquote>

<u>Fragrance Composition:</u></h2>
<br />
So what does it smell like? It is classified as a fresh mossy aldehydic chypre fragrance for women. It begins with a fresh top note, followed by a classic floral heart, layered over a warm, mossy base. One of the more popular perfumes, it has an underwood moss and resin fragrance enhanced by sweet floral notes of jasmine, iris and rose. Coty described it as "Perfume of amber moss emanating at certain times from the woods and forests."<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Top notes: bergamot oil, lemon, neroli, orange, fruit note, sage</li>
<li>Middle notes: carnation, ylang ylang, gardenia, lilac, orris butter, Grasse rose, Grasse jasmine</li>
<li>Base notes: castoreum, ambergris, oakmoss, styrax, patchouli, Mexican vanilla, Tibetan musk, labdanum, Venezuelan tonka bean, vetiver, Ethiopian civet, Mysore sandalwood </li>

<u>Bottles:</u></h2><br /><br />Chypre de Coty was housed in numerous bottles over its lifetime.</div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /><div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; font-family: Bentham; font-size: 16.5px;" trbidi="on"><b><i><br /></i></b></div><b><i>Moth Stopper Parfum Flacon:</i></b><br /><br />One of the first bottles used was the Rene Lalique designed bottle that featured the double moth/butterfly frosted glass stopper, patinated in brown. This bottle was originally designed by Lalique for the Coty fragrance Muguet (Lily of the Valley) in 1912, but was later used for almost all of the Coty fragrances. The flacon is a simple square shape, measuring slightly over 3" per side, with straight shoulders, slightly convex, an indented base, a small neck and a fancy molded stopper.<br /><br />The Lalique flacons came in two sizes: 3.34" tall and 3.93" tall. The mark of a genuine Rene Lalique bottle is an impressed intaglio-molded long-tail L "LALIQUE" signature. See photo below. The bottle also has an elongated oval indentation in the center of the base. They were not marked "R. Lalique" so beware of fake signatures applied to old non-Lalique produced bottles. <br /><br />This flacon is pictured in the following books:<br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Marcilhac, R.Lalique Catalogue Raisonne, page 929 of the 2011 French printing, under the reference "Coty 19" (photo 9).</li><li>Utt, Lalique Perfume Bottles, 1990, page 26.</li><li>Jones-North, Commercial Perfume Bottles, 1987, page 36 </li></ul><div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; font-family: Bentham; font-size: 16.5px;" trbidi="on"><b><i><br /></i></b></div><div><div>In 1914, to save money, Coty commissioned Baccarat to make the flacons based on the original Lalique designs. This caused a falling out in the friendship which resulted in the two men not talking for 13 years. Eventually, the two friends made up and Lalique designed one last bottle for him in 1927. Baccarat started making the bottles in 1916, the bottle being mold number 307. These bottles have sloping shoulders, not as straight as those found on the Lalique flacons. These bottles should be acid marked Baccarat on the base. Like the Lalique flacons, the bottle also has an elongated oval indentation in the center of the base. The Baccarat bottle can be found standing at 3.25" tall. You can see this bottle pictured in the book "Baccarat: The perfume bottles" by Addor Press, 1986, as #307.<br /><br />However, the Baccarat bottles also proved to be too expensive, and François Coty, who was excessively cheap, had the Lalique-copied bottles produced at his own glassworks. Like those by Baccarat, these bottles have sloping shoulders, not as straight as those found on the Lalique flacons. The bottles made at the Coty glassworks are marked "Coty" on the base either embossed in the glass or acid stamped. Unlike the Lalique and Baccarat examples, the Coty made bottle does not have the elongated oval indentation in the center of the base, presumably to cut costs. The Coty base is flat. The Coty marked bottle holds 1.6 oz of parfum and stands 3.25" tall, it was housed inside of a green leather covered box. Another size is 2.75" tall.<br /><br /><br />The beautiful moth stoppered bottle was finally discontinued in 1961.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm16as9FTMxmpc0heNi4ciPK3qVBl5Bwsnt_leXzWwtdfaOcA9BCbDYfMZVnUSTZjhTNH8MNIgR9KHv0xp1pYKl8J8_2sNViJSqJrLykdCu5aPwG9JtAVJwMzmSSbPbwukUx7kxKP6o34/s1600/chy.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="374" data-original-width="544" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm16as9FTMxmpc0heNi4ciPK3qVBl5Bwsnt_leXzWwtdfaOcA9BCbDYfMZVnUSTZjhTNH8MNIgR9KHv0xp1pYKl8J8_2sNViJSqJrLykdCu5aPwG9JtAVJwMzmSSbPbwukUx7kxKP6o34/s1600/chy.jpeg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjknJKuQJ0BrPlqtBw24l7w02NluuQSBJy8L2T88b4iRpEziliAI-C0NzOjxV5gHopZqx5-0ibyVSkuKgSrdGlRGW21-n4zw5mlwjoEcCfcGxH_9nyELZuLr730-hh9mX819kcG4GqNRsk/s1600/def.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="410" data-original-width="547" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjknJKuQJ0BrPlqtBw24l7w02NluuQSBJy8L2T88b4iRpEziliAI-C0NzOjxV5gHopZqx5-0ibyVSkuKgSrdGlRGW21-n4zw5mlwjoEcCfcGxH_9nyELZuLr730-hh9mX819kcG4GqNRsk/s1600/def.jpeg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>This bottle shape was adapted in 1916 originally for L'Origan for travelling by the usage of an inner glass stopper and a gilt brass screw cap, this bottle was made by Baccarat, model number 291.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i><b>Roseraie Package:</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">In 1927, Coty brought out a pretty new packaging design for the moth stoppered bottle. The bottle was now housed in a box covered with a brown suede like effect. The face of the package has a small dotted circle with "Coty Paris" inside and is topped with fanciful ribbons. This presentation was used for the perfumes Emeraude, L'Origan, Paris and Chypre. Newspaper ads differed on how much the bottle actually held as I found 1 1/3 oz, 1 3/4 oz, and 1 1/2 oz being noted.

This bottle featured an arched shape with sloping shoulders and was fitted a frosted glass stopper with a molded stepped or scale design. The bottle was later used for all of Coty's perfumes in the 1910s through the 1930s. Most bottles made after 1920 were made by Coty’s own glassworks in Pantin and his flacons were fitted with presentation cases made at his boxing factory in Neuilly. You can find this in the 0.35 oz size as well.</div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">In 1929, it was part of what is known as the "Louvre" presentation and was advertised as a "new flacon". The bottle held 1 2/3 oz of Parfum and as you can see in the ad below, it was housed in a faux reptile skin covered presentation box. According to newspaper ads, the bottle was still being used in 1930 for Emeraude, L'Origan, Chypre, Paris, and La Jacee. The name "Louvre" was a throwback to the very store that Coty first approached to sell his La Rose Jacqueminot perfume in 1909. It is also worthy of to note that the name Louvre was chosen because the bottle was originally made by Lalique and used for the Magasins du Louvre department store for their signature perfumes. </div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi067yRZ_QF7W_0UFbA0JVI1zEs74hwAYEU2UfYuGqPottXtJFA11__0PsSLAPO2Xn6_6CQi0P6tSE7RP9gnLk-LA6bZ7RhxXHQVDmCUDXiGcWk5FdwPhbB4oLS1ywxQ6kZX4Dt359EZovcufDO0y867orhec9-X0Ox6GtkFi_DzMoJu3c5xmRDm7ddQZ4/s400/ou.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="298" data-original-width="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi067yRZ_QF7W_0UFbA0JVI1zEs74hwAYEU2UfYuGqPottXtJFA11__0PsSLAPO2Xn6_6CQi0P6tSE7RP9gnLk-LA6bZ7RhxXHQVDmCUDXiGcWk5FdwPhbB4oLS1ywxQ6kZX4Dt359EZovcufDO0y867orhec9-X0Ox6GtkFi_DzMoJu3c5xmRDm7ddQZ4/s16000/ou.jpeg" /></a></div><br /><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div>

<u>Fate of the Fragrance:</u></h2><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div>
During World War II, importations of Le Vertige and Chypre were severely limited to the United States and Coty issued an apology to the American women. The reason given is that the company could not source the precious, high grade ingredients used in the making of the perfume due to worldwide enemy occupation. Also, "we have been entirely cut off from France ever since her complete invasion in November 1941." So rather than use poor quality substitutes to recreate the fragrances, Coty went the high road and just halted production of the scents Chypre and Le Vertige until they could once again source the proper raw materials.<br />

In 1964 a national announcement from Coty revealed the return of Chypre (pronounced "sheep"). The classic fragrance was discontinued for many years because the natural musk fixative, derived from the musk ox, found only in Tibet, was not available to the free world. This forced the brand to use synthetic musk aromachemicals. However, Chypre was discontinued once again.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>The Chateau Collection:</b><br />
<br />
In 1986, Coty released three forgotten scents in a set called "The Chateau Collection." This collection of old favorites was comprised up of <i>La Rose Jacqueminot, Chypre</i> and <i>Muse</i> which was rechristened as <i>Les Muses</i>. The original fragrances were brought up to date to satisfy the changing tastes of the 1986 woman. The full parfum concentrations were not released as they were feared to be "too heady for modern tastes" as the originals were "more full-bodied and romantic in earlier days". The setting and inspiration for the collection's display and advertising was the famous Chateau D'Artigny, the sumptuous former estate of Coty in France.<br />
<br />
Chypre was available in 1 oz eau de parfum splash for $12.50 and 1.75 oz eau de toilette spray for $10.00. A gift set included a bottle of eau de parfum, and purse atomizer and a funnel to decant the edp splash into the atomizer, this set retailed for $17.50.</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

<br />
So what does it smell like? It is classified as a classic contemporary chypre fragrance for women with delicate notes of gardenia and tuberose mellowing into rich notes of woods and mosses.<br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Top notes: gardenia, tuberose</li>

L'Or by Coty: Originally created in 1912, introduced to the USA in 1916. Created by Vincent Roubert who reportedly took five years to perfect the formula. In 1913 the fragrance was available in parfum, toilet water, face powder and sachet. <br />
<br />
The Times Herald, 1925:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"L'Or: the golden lure of strange quests; gilt sailed argosies with high prows breasting the foam of unknown seas toward the gal of all desires. Leaping, glowing soul of flames; subtle fragrance of the golden blonde of sunset hair and eyes, symbol of the unquenchable dream within the hearts of men, alluring, inspiring to high endeavor. It is an exquisite perfume for cigarettes. A few drops on a bit of silk kept in the box gives them a delicate, fascinating balminess, breathing out in smoke, the fragrance of her it expresses."</i></blockquote>
<br />
The fragrance was relaunched with much fanfare in a gorgeous Baccarat crystal flacon in 1959. In 1960, it was said to be the world's most expensive fragrance, as one ounce in that Baccarat bottle cost $60.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: right;"><br /></div>

I believe L'Or was discontinued for many years before being relaunched in 1959. For the 1959 relaunch, L'Or's parfum was housed in an exquisite heavy Baccarat crystal flacon fashioned as an elongated teardrop shape with matching crystal stopper. A black velvet bow was wrapped around the neck of the bottle and a gold metallic paper label hung from the bow. This bottle was Baccarat model number 821 and stands 6.25" tall.</div>

<u>Fate of the Fragrance:</u></h3>
During the first World War, importations of Coty products to the United States from France were halted and American retailers has to rely on selling the only stock that remained on their shelves. Although the war ended in 1918, it wasn't until 1921 that regular importations to America resumed in full speed according to the newspaper ads I read. However, I did read that distribution to France and Italy were not disturbed. I believe that this was because raw materials needed to be grown, purchased and imported and perhaps access to bottles was not readily available. During WWI, Lalique's first factory was forced to close, but the construction of a new factory was soon begun in Wingen-sur-Moder, in the Alsace region. It was completed in 1921 and still produces Lalique crystal today.<br />

Discontinued, date unknown, probably by 1970.</div>

Jasmin de Corse by Coty: launched in 1906. Corse refers to Corsica, Francois Coty's place of birth. Had a great following from the Russian princess, Tatiana Romanov and the French writer Colette who was enamored with the fragrance and wore it daily. <br />

So what does it smell like? Coty Jasmin de Corse is an very sweet, heavy and lingering with indolic jasmine with smoky undertones.<br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Top notes: cassie, neroli</li>
<li>Middle notes: jasmine, orange blossom, orris</li>
<li>Base notes: civet, ambergris, ambrette, benzoin, castoreum</li>

<p><br /></p><p>In the 1920s and 1930s, it was customary for perfume companies to introduce the idea that women of certain complexion or hair color would be better suited to particular perfumes. Incidentally, perfumers said, blondes should wear light perfume, brunettes, heavy Oriental perfumes. </p><ul><li>For Blondes: Paris, L'Aimant, L'Effleurt, La Rose Jacqueminot & L'Or.</li><li>For Brunettes: L'Aimant, L'Origan, Emeraude, Chypre, Ambréine, Fougeraie au Crépuscule, or Styx.</li><li>For Red-Haired Women: Emeraude, Paris, L'Origan, L'Ambre Antique, Iris & Cyclamen.</li></ul><br /><br />Other perfumers advised women to seek out perfume based on their personalities or moods rather than their looks.

<u>Bottles:</u></h3>
<div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">The little bottle below was used in the Coty chest or rack of perfume testers. The bottles are clear glass and the stoppers have a dauber at the end of the stopper plug. Each bottle stands 2.25" tall and was manufactured in France by the Depinoix glassworks. Both the wooden chest and the brass rack have a locking mechanism akin to a tantalus which prevents the bottles from being taken out. Only the stoppers of the bottles can be accessed. This device helped keep the bottles in place during travel as well.</div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXKR4TH36qwuz3nhebPlbCuOgju-tM-CoEXDvMA0Sx4rZHRz0J4wstL4B4HvlLOCm8NAVyEO0f-jxU2e5KgJcyJzKO0HB-3Vzq2TYPzzQ3kRhUsSUYCsAgBLbHM-aQd5CMDIVkkGqkZqmROwMcoIQv0VsiZDnMwMKM7g4SER5TepmSLf6_S1zpMJbzEV4/s3604/jasm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2869" data-original-width="3604" height="510" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXKR4TH36qwuz3nhebPlbCuOgju-tM-CoEXDvMA0Sx4rZHRz0J4wstL4B4HvlLOCm8NAVyEO0f-jxU2e5KgJcyJzKO0HB-3Vzq2TYPzzQ3kRhUsSUYCsAgBLbHM-aQd5CMDIVkkGqkZqmROwMcoIQv0VsiZDnMwMKM7g4SER5TepmSLf6_S1zpMJbzEV4/w640-h510/jasm.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><i><b>Moth Stopper Parfum Flacon:</b></i></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">One of the first bottles used was the Rene Lalique designed bottle that featured the double moth/butterfly frosted glass stopper, patinated in brown. This bottle was originally designed by Lalique for the Coty fragrance Muguet (Lily of the Valley) in 1912, but was later used for almost all of the Coty fragrances. The flacon is a simple square shape, measuring slightly over 3" per side, with straight shoulders, slightly convex, an indented base, a small neck and a fancy molded stopper. </div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">The Lalique flacons came in two sizes: 3.34" tall and 3.93" tall. The mark of a genuine Rene Lalique bottle is an impressed intaglio-molded long-tail L "LALIQUE" signature. See photo below. The bottle also has an elongated oval indentation in the center of the base. They were not marked "R. Lalique" so beware of fake signatures applied to old non-Lalique produced bottles. </div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">In 1914, to save money, Coty commissioned Baccarat to make the flacons based on the original Lalique designs. This caused a falling out in the friendship which resulted in the two men not talking for 13 years. Eventually, the two friends made up and Lalique designed one last bottle for him in 1927. Baccarat started making the bottles in 1916, the bottle being mold number 307. These bottles have sloping shoulders, not as straight as those found on the Lalique flacons. These bottles should be acid marked Baccarat on the base. Like the Lalique flacons, the bottle also has an elongated oval indentation in the center of the base. The Baccarat bottle can be found standing at 3.25" tall. You can see this bottle pictured in the book "Baccarat: The perfume bottles" by Addor Press, 1986, as #307. </div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">However, the Baccarat bottles also proved to be too expensive, and François Coty, who was excessively cheap, had the Lalique-copied bottles produced at his own glassworks. Like those by Baccarat, these bottles have sloping shoulders, not as straight as those found on the Lalique flacons. The bottles made at the Coty glassworks are marked "Coty" on the base either embossed in the glass or acid stamped. Unlike the Lalique and Baccarat examples, the Coty made bottle does not have the elongated oval indentation in the center of the base, presumably to cut costs. The Coty base is flat. The Coty marked bottle holds 1.6 oz of parfum and stands 3.25" tall, it was housed inside of a green leather covered box. Another size is 2.75" tall.</div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">The beautiful moth stoppered bottle was finally discontinued in 1961.</div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9Cmi3jTYHghWwgubADZBvXiSotGtkz8LIbGnmu-IiLVLMCHBDc5XAvtuf_U1lm7tVRDU1ErhQYg42TV71nqMMHYvksfgKg3blEcgzCdrRw6tNyCaaWNvnaMO3AmlnIcjqq-zw17vfg3AI3fFBDR5XyaOAntgh2uFkxOFI42qu6m-eTxXdfPJoytPpH4/s601/jo4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="601" data-original-width="445" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9Cmi3jTYHghWwgubADZBvXiSotGtkz8LIbGnmu-IiLVLMCHBDc5XAvtuf_U1lm7tVRDU1ErhQYg42TV71nqMMHYvksfgKg3blEcgzCdrRw6tNyCaaWNvnaMO3AmlnIcjqq-zw17vfg3AI3fFBDR5XyaOAntgh2uFkxOFI42qu6m-eTxXdfPJoytPpH4/s16000/jo4.jpg" /></a></div></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><b><i>Chain Cap Travel Bottle:</i></b></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">The bottle shown below has a gilded brass cap complete with its very own chain, I am dubbing it the <b><i>Chain Cap Travel Flacon</i></b>.

<i><b>Heliotrope Flacon:</b></i><br /><br /><br />The "Heliotrope" flacon, also known as "Coty Perfume No. 14" was first made by Rene Lalique in 1911 for the Coty perfume Heliotrope. It is roughly a triangular shape with canted corners along the bottom. The bottle was used for various Coty fragrances: Emeraude, L'Aimant, L'Origan, Styx, Chypre, Muguet, Jacinthe, Jasmin de Corse, La Rose Jacqueminot, and Paris.</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOan7grwFAEduKpGQbtXpNPUIAGQbD4XG6wzHtt7x_P_S_vH67wySHwHD00dxLToJxdTUxNfwWR4sgEumCqE0Gp2mZ0_Ol6-mRp7Y0JzMqhvesxpbDjDCTyME6f6zQLCOjZIx8QGLOn0dXxIo-PQJUe71VceNgQSol6J5OSmaAK-jihcCVyOn1EYN89oo/s5120/jac2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2075" data-original-width="5120" height="260" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOan7grwFAEduKpGQbtXpNPUIAGQbD4XG6wzHtt7x_P_S_vH67wySHwHD00dxLToJxdTUxNfwWR4sgEumCqE0Gp2mZ0_Ol6-mRp7Y0JzMqhvesxpbDjDCTyME6f6zQLCOjZIx8QGLOn0dXxIo-PQJUe71VceNgQSol6J5OSmaAK-jihcCVyOn1EYN89oo/w640-h260/jac2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhXxOt396iUrhrD3hEf1Qi1ZFs0TwelsqT1iMuxpjVIM7D8fFmbhyphenhyphenIpFd-jAfu9jUgX2IsByIp1AQlLSAOLQPP7TZKvqptqqd1f-bXTHzxoHmhJbinbbw9WgG32dHsXLh2vLE-7kLtKWL2z5MsqQ64LUPM9APkuYAgSgObZZiJar8vE4gq2qPVpsDz_kA/s623/coty164-removebg-preview.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="623" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhXxOt396iUrhrD3hEf1Qi1ZFs0TwelsqT1iMuxpjVIM7D8fFmbhyphenhyphenIpFd-jAfu9jUgX2IsByIp1AQlLSAOLQPP7TZKvqptqqd1f-bXTHzxoHmhJbinbbw9WgG32dHsXLh2vLE-7kLtKWL2z5MsqQ64LUPM9APkuYAgSgObZZiJar8vE4gq2qPVpsDz_kA/s16000/coty164-removebg-preview.png" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>

<u>Fate of the Fragrance:</u></h3><div><br /></div>
The perfume seems to have been sold until 1950 then discontinued.<br />
<br />
<br />
In 2004, to celebrate the firm’s 100th anniversary, Henri Coty, François’s son, commissioned the re-creation of his father’s Jasmin de Corse perfume, to be housed inside a French crystal flacon. These were sold in a limited number of just 200 only available to the French Market, and the perfume was reformulated by Daphné Bugey. Bottom of the bottle is marked in raised letters, "Bottle Made In France". This bottle measures 2" tall x 1 1/4" square. Other perfumes in this limited edition set included: Emeraude, L'Origan, and La Rose Jacqueminot. The perfume set was celebrated with the launch of a book Coty: The Brand of Visionary by Editions Assouline. <br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Chanel No. 5 and Coty</span></b><br />
<br />
There is a rumor that has been going around since the 1920's. It seems that some people believe that Francois Coty was the inventor of Chanel No.5. People maintain that Chanel No. 5 was an act of industrial espionage and that its formula was stolen from a competitor's laboratory in the south of France. This theory is part of that long, tangled history that connected Coco Chanel and her friend - and -competitor - Francois Coty.<br />
<br />
As Edmond Charles-Roux tells it: "The development of No.5 …proceeded in a rather heavy atmosphere reminiscent of the whispered machinations that herald a palace revolution…Plenty of intrigue, sudden reversals and secret alliances. Nothing was missing from the script not even the spectacular disappearance of one of Coty’s top chemists. The deserter fled, clutching to his bosom the fruit of long years of research: the formula for a perfume Coty could not make up his mind to put on the market because it cost so much to produce. That was one reason why this chemist went over to the enemy: he was afraid his invention would never be available to the public…Was his name Ernest Beaux? All queries being met by the impenetrable silence of those who know, we must be content to leave this point in darkness. But one thing is certain: about seven years later, Coty was producing a perfume that was almost exactly the same as Chanel No. 5. But although I sold tolerably well, L’Aimant never made a dent in the Chanel market.”<br />
<br />
A closer look revealed a crazy mixed-up, story. On the other hand Yvonne Coty always claimed that Chanel No. 5 was named not after the number of the fragrance vial but after the number of “a station in Coty’s laboratory at either Suresnes or at the Rallet Factory in the south of France.” She seemed to believe that there was some possible buried connection. However, Ernest Beaux never worked for Coty. He has spent his entire career at Rallet, so he couldn’t have been the fleeing chemist. Perhaps it was another perfumer at Coty who absconded with the formula and passed it along to Ernest Beaux - who then handed it to Coco Chanel. One thing is for certain, in 1927, as Charles-Roux says, someone at Coty did have a copy of the Chanel No. 5 formula or something extremely similar to it. Coty’s fragrance L’Aimant, launched that year, was too close to have been any kind of accident. The question remains, did Coty have the formula all along and was Chanel No. 5 the copy?<br />
<div>
<br />
There is a perfectly simple reason why Coty had a copy of the formula for a Chanel No. 5 perfume in 1927. A year before, Coty’s massive company had swallowed up one of his smaller competitors, the Chiris perfume house. Coty had been closely involved with the operations at Chiris for several decades. At the turn of the century, he has trained in their labs and became business partners with several of the owners of that family company. Since WWI, he has acted as those Chiris was his business alone, in many ways and its perfume “his” holdings. It was this sense of proprietorship that would fuel an intense and not always friendly spirit of competition between Coty and Coco Chanel.<br />
<br />
In 1926, Coty had formally purchased the business and all of its holdings, which included the A. Rallet & Co perfume outfit. All the info that Coty needed to produce his own version of Chanel No.5 was sitting right there in the archives. But the name on top of that formula was not Chanel. No. 5. What he had acquired was the recipe for another perfume, one that was invented in 1914. It smelled unmistakably like Chanel No. 5, for one simple reason: it was the secret scent behind the world’s most famous perfume. This time, the crazy story was true. </div>
<div>
<br />
Most of this info was taken from the book "Secret of Chanel No. 5".<br />

Ambre Antique was launched in 1905 by Coty. Pronounced "Ahm-ber ahn-teek", it was described as the "fragrance of splendour and conquest, the thrall of legendary queens."<br />

<u>Fragrance Composition:</u></h3>
<br />
<br />
So what does it smell like? It is classified as an sweet amber oriental fragrance for women.<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Top notes: bergamot, carnation and neroli</li>
<li>Middle notes: rose, heliotrope, jasmine, incense, labdanum, olibanum, opoponax, orris concrete, violet</li>
<li>Base notes: sandalwood, Indian musk, ambergris, patchouli, Tibetan civet and Mexican vanilla</li>
</ul>
<br /><br /></div><div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">
Ambre Antique made use of two Firmenich bases: Iralia and Dianthine. Iralia lends a sweet, floral woody note, while Dianthine suggests a spicy carnation bouquet.<br />
<br />It was available in Parfum extrait, toilet water, cologne and talc.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Harper's Bazaar, 1916:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"One may rise to the supreme heights of luxury and possess the hand carved masterpiece of the famous Lalique the intaglio bottle which holds the Styx of Coty at seventy five dollars another gem is Ambre Antique at twenty five dollars and seventy five cents."</i></blockquote>
<br />
Advertising Copy, 1936:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"As exquisite gifts, they convey a tribute to loveliness as delicately as a bouquet of flowers, but of unfading fragrance— constantly renewing the charm of a rare and understanding compliment. AMBRE ANTIQUE-fragrance of ancient Egypt— for the woman of enigmatic allure, incomprehensible, aloof."</i></blockquote>
<br />
The New Yorker, 1937:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"Consult Coty, the magnificent, for amber (Ambre Antique), as usual, and for unadulterated chypre."</i></blockquote>

<u>Bottles:</u></h3>
<br />
In 1910, Coty had his friend Rene Lalique create a fabulous flacon to house the precious perfume. Made up of frosted glass and molded with Grecian maidens, it is a gorgeous piece fit for anyone's collection. Each figure is slightly different, but they all have a reddish brown patina on the molded silhouettes that enhances the motif appearing in bas-relief on very fine, acid-etched frosted glass. Bottle stands 6" tall.<br />

<b><i>Briar Stopper Flacon:</i></b></div>
<div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">
<b><i><br /></i></b>Rene Lalique designed this flacon in 1911, and it was later made by Coty's own glassworks after 1920. The clear glass bottle is tall, with a square base, and features a frosted glass stopper molded with the "briar" motif. The bottle was originally made to house the various Eau de Toilettes, but the design was later adapted to include different sizes including a miniature versions to house parfum. The miniature size is dubbed "Petite Modele" and debuted in 1936 and held 0.27 oz.<br />
<br />
In the 1920s, the boxes had messages inside reminding the owners of the bottles that "These exquisite crystal flacons are hand-cut in the Paris ateliers of COTY - Care must be taken in placing them on the dressing table to avoid breakage of the corners."</div>

<b><i>Banded Bottles with Frosted Stoppers:</i></b><br />
<br />
The bottle has an embossed band along the upper part and a frosted glass stopper molded with flowers and ridge details. People have mistakenly attributed this bottle to both Lalique and Baccarat, however, the bottle does not appear in either companies catalogs and was not one of their molds. It was made by Coty's own glassworks in France. The parfum bottle was available in three sizes: 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz and 1 oz. The bottles were discontinued in 1932. The 1/4 oz bottle itself was discontinued in 1934.<br />

<b><i>Yellow Mimosa Print Packaging:</i></b><br />
<br />
In 1935, the Coty floral parfums were packaged in new limited edition ensembles featuring mimosa prints on yellow backgrounds. The following perfumes were included: Muguet, Oeillet France, La Rose Jacqueminot, Ambre Antique, Lilas Pourpre, and Violette Pourpre. Eventually, the other Coty perfumes were added to the packaging design such as Emeraude, L'Aimant, and L'Origan.<br />

<i><b>Moth Stopper Parfum Flacon:</b></i><br />
<br />
One of the first bottles used was the Rene Lalique designed bottle that featured the double moth frosted glass stopper. This bottle was originally designed by Lalique for the Coty fragrance Muguet in 1912, but was later used for almost all of the Coty fragrances.</div>

This bottle was also made by Baccarat in 1916, mold number 307. These bottles should be acid marked Baccarat on the base. The Baccarat bottle can be found standing at 3.25' tall.</div>

This was later made by Coty's own glassworks and will be marked "Coty" on the base. The Coty marked bottle holds 1.6 oz of parfum and stands 3.25" tall, it was housed inside of a green leather covered box.</div>
<div dir="ltr" trbidi="on">

The moth stoppered bottle was finally discontinued in 1961.</div>

This bottle shape was adapted in 1916 originally for L'Origan for travelling by the usage of an inner glass stopper and a gilt brass screw cap, this bottle was made by Baccarat, model number 291. In 1928, these flat, square shaped crystal bottles were available in French leather cases. These bottles held Emeraude, L'Origan, Chypre and Paris. I have seen these bottles with L'Aimant labels too.</div>

<u>Fate of the Fragrance:</u></h3>

Ambre Antique was discontinued at some point but was still listed for sale in a 1949 newspaper ad.<br />

However, the world was treated to limited-edition reproduction bottles of Ambre Antique which were reissued in 1995, under the license of Coty, by a company called Private Portfolio, which produced 3,500 Lalique-designed flacons of the fragrance that were then sold at the exclusive Neiman Marcus, Harrod's, and Bergdorf Goodman department stores. Each bottle held three ounces and retailed at $350. These bottle alone are worth several hundred dollars to collectors.<br />

I have an original invitation to purchase the re-edition, the first page reads:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"Paris 1910, It was a wondrous era. In the loveliest of cities, Art Nouveau was at its height and artists were never more inspired. All would be swept away by the enchantment of Ambre Antique, a sensuous fragrance by master perfumer Francois Coty. Unavailable since 1915, Ambre Antique ...in a limited edition flacon, based on an original design by history's most famous designer of crystal, Rene Lalique...can be yours again."</i></blockquote>
<br />

The Rose Sheet, 1995:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"Private Portfolio: Benckiser subsidiary reintroducing 85-year old Ambre Antique fragrance in limited edition. A total of 3,500 bottles of the scent, which will be available in late October in Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman, will be produced worldwide. Ambre Antique is the first in a series of six limited edition offerings Private Portfolio will be relaunching from the Les Parfums Classiques de Francois Coty collection. The updated version of Ambre Antique is a "modern re-creation" of the original formula with "crisp top notes" of citrus and berries, a heart of rose and ylang-ylang and a "classic Oriental base," Private Portfolio says. The "faithful rendition" of the original flacon is etched with profiles of four women in flowing Grecian gowns. A 3 oz. eau de parfum in the limited edition flacon is priced at $350. The fragrance is also available in a 1.7 oz. edp spray for $90 and a .25 oz. purse spray for $40."</i></blockquote>
<br />
WWD, 1995:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"PRIVATE STOCK: Benckiser Group’s Private Portfolio is summoning a ghost of perfumery’s past. Next month the company will revive the first of a six-item series of limited-edition women’s fragrances called Les Parfums Classiques de Francois Coty.<br />Coty Inc., Private Portfolio’s sister company, owns the trademarks, designs and fragrance formulas, which were created by Coty, a French perfumer, in the early 1900s.</i> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>The collection will bow this fall with the reintroduction of Ambre Antique, an oriental fragrance from 1910. Next will be L’Effleurt, set to appear in approximately a year, and Chypre and Emeraude, according to Victor E. Zast, president of Portfolio.<br />The company will produce only 3,500 bottles of Ambre Antique, then move on to the next brand.</i> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>While the juice will be tweaked slightly to make it more appealing to modern sensibilities, Zast said, the bottle is an exact recreation of the original Art Nouveau packaging designed by Rene Lalique.</i> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>Ambre Antique’s 3-oz. eau de parfum, in a crystal flacon, will sell for $350. There will be a 1.7-oz. eau de parfum spray for $90 and 0.25-purse spray at $40. Zast said the fragrance will be in only 100 doors worldwide, and will be marketed through direct mail."</i></blockquote>
