Toujours Moi Corday 1923 Eau de Toilette

Of all the fragrances Dana acquired and ruined, Toujours Moi might be the most tragic. I recently got my hands on a vintage bottle of Corday TM PDT, and the difference from the Dana remake is stark. The Corday is a sumptuous and spicy aldehydic, a grand dame in the classic style; the Dana assaults the nose like an aging Marseille hooker. Oook. Still, the fact that a fume created in 1924 still sells, even in this debased state, says something. Check out the pics of vintage TM bottles on the web -- they're gorgeous.
