J. G. Mouson & Co. 1924 Parfum

In this very interesting article (see link below*) about the development of the Frankfurt traditional company J. G. Mouson & Co., a product catalog from 1898 is mentioned, which already listed the fragrance Tai Tai back then.

In 1898, the Mouson company had a staggering over 600 items on offer. The well-known Mouson cream was already launched in 1912.
Even today, the famous Mousonturm stands in Frankfurt, an expressionist building from 1926. The impressive structure now houses a cultural center, including a theater.

In 1972, the Mouson family sold the family business, officially ending its history.

Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to add Tai Tai to my collection, but it won't be long now. I will provide the fragrance description in due time...
