As a perfume this is an extremely rare item. My grandmother had this perfume. I remember she wore Evening in Paris a lot and rarely touched this one because she found it to be too strong and outdated. This frag is from 1922 when aldehydes were already established as an ingredient in perfumery and when the Oriental craze had not quite taken off. This is a very exotic perfume. It’s quite strong and fills an entire room. I fell heir to this beauty when my grandmother passed away. It comes in the form of a classical Greek or Roman urn or vat as a bottle. This was a perfume oil of intoxicating supremely musky aroma. Because it was an old perfume the musk was the remnant of this otherwise floral and spicy scent. At times it does feel like an Oriental. It has patchouli and woods but a lot of civet and animalic accords of castoreum. The scent had a faint and fleeting scent of flowers, namely lavender, iris, violet, carnation, jasmine and rose. These flowers would have been very strong in it’s original freshness and always the iris and rose give it a touch of powder. Sweet flowers beautiful but heavy fragrant flowers. The perfume I have now is more like flowers that have withered and now only the civet is left. There was plenty of leather and suede which give this scent a masculine and very bold strong aroma. It would be classified as unisex today but back in ’22 it was just exotic and very mature for older grand dames of high society. This also reminds me of Bandit which as we know is a tobacco and leather unisex bold fragrance that means business. Well this one meant business too. It has some ingredients rarely if not at all used in perfumery anymore: marjoram and costus. The result is very musky and aromatic, and the patchouli can still be detected. I found that this scent was more like the original Bal a Versailles by Desprez. If you like the original Bal and can get your hands on this one go for it. It’s a treasure of a perfume.

Fortunately, I was able to try it as perfume extract and it is absolutely divine. The bouquet is beautiful, you almost forget to smell the flowers to try to guess musks but they arise very quickly and it is also naughty one might expect.
It’s very funny to realize as Guerlain was a rather avant-garde house in fact, today there are only the great classics but we discover a heritage that would make fade to mediocrity 90% of contemporary niche perfumes.
