no 5=Marilyn Monroe Arpège = Norma Shearer le Dix = Gene Tierney
"The Eau de Toilette has moderate lasting power and won’t irritate the person in the next cubicle." said Gene Tierney about her favorite fragrance! However, I cannot agree with her; I wouldn’t want anyone next to me in a restaurant who smells like that. It’s not necessary, although there are worse things. I could never warm up to the scent. Le Dix means The Ten and refers to Balenciaga's address in Paris.

Roses en masse
Truly the "most real" rose scent I have ever found. Lasts all day and is one of the few that retains its original scent on the skin. I could spray it all over the house whenever I feel like it. Creed was founded in 1760 in London and has been family-owned ever since. Today's owners and perfumers are Olivier and Erwin Creed,

Jean Patou
Jean Patou's fashion promoted a clear line of design after he opened his couture house in Paris in 1919 and launched sportswear as a symbol of the liberation of the body. He was a pioneer in many ways: he used his monogram as a stylistic element, created accessories that he poetically called "little nothings," designed swimsuits made of knitted fabric, and even the first suntan oil. In 1925, he presented his first perfume "Amour Amour." It is now one of the twelve famous Patou perfumes that were created between 1925 and 1964. In 1931, "Joy" was released, which was then the most expensive perfume in the world, favored by Grace of Monaco and Sophia Loren. Even today, it remains one of the best!

A Brief History of Eau de Cologne
On July 13, 1709, Johann Farina founded the world's oldest perfume and Eau de Cologne factory, JOHANN MARIA FARINA GEGENÜBER DEM JÜLICHS-PLATZ in Cologne.

Johann Maria Farina (1685-1766) named his unparalleled elixir in honor of his new hometown EAU DE COLOGNE - in German, KÖLNISCH WASSER. He made Cologne world-famous as a fragrance city. The city honored its citizen with a statue at the town hall tower.

"My scent is like an Italian spring morning after the rain, oranges, grapefruits, lemons, bergamot, citron, lime, and the flowers and herbs of my homeland," wrote Johann Maria Farina in 1742 to the chamberlain of King Frederick the Great in Berlin. It was there that Voltaire learned to love this fragrance. The world's oldest perfume factory is now run by the direct descendants of the founder in the eighth generation. 50667 Cologne, www.Farina1709.com.


Emperor Napoleon, as well as Victoria, Queen of England, appreciated his EAU DE COLOGNE. Johann Maria Farina gegenüber dem Jülichs-Platz in Cologne supplied almost all European royal and princely houses, as evidenced by over 50 titles of court suppliers.

The nearly 300-year fragrance history of EAU DE COLOGNE is continued by Johann Maria Farina, the fifth great-grandson of the founder. His seal, the RED TULIP, guarantees authenticity and quality.
