what perfumes whould you suggest.

"soir de paris"

"chanel no 5"

" shocking"

"je reviens"

Well, I would definitely not go for the 1940s, but maybe "Jicky" and "Pour un Homme de Caron" are suitable options.

EDIT: If it would have been still in production, I definitely would have tried to get my hands on some original AdP.

If I had lived in 1949, I would have enthusiastically welcomed "Acqua di Selva"!

I would have loved the original Isabey Fleur Nocturne - Blue de Chine and these: Vol De nuit, Habanita, and a Rose fragrance...

I'd be in the Résistance, kicking ass. Bandit, of course.

Shalimar and Mitsouko. Both are timeless but nevertheless have that nostalgic vibe.

Another one I could very much imagine in the 40s is "Azuree" by Estee Lauder. That´s a to-die-for chypre and it buzzes with vitality.

"It don´t mean a thing if it ain´t got that swing..." Doo wup doo wup doo wup doo wup.
