Famous, but forgotten forever
It's not so much about the fragrance, but about the fact that fragrances that were "mainstream" in their time, and perhaps even a part of the culture of that time, can fall into oblivion.
I have the perfume, it still smells good, despite a little lost top note. Herbaceous, green and no longer appropriate for today's world. Pity.
Hardly anyone would want to wear the original Channel No. 5 today. Too much animal, not enough flowers and sweetness. But it survived. Probably also because the fashion house still exists, otherwise, who knows... maybe it would be forgotten today.
There is so much that has been forgotten, lost forever and cannot be recovered. But that's the way time is, always ticking forward and only showing the present. Sometimes a pity
PS:
Here is an interesting article that clearly shows why some things disappear forever.
