I recently purchased a full, vintage travel-sized bottle of EDP. It was a blind buy. This scent is such a gem! It is similar to L’aimant, but without the slightly sweet element. It isn’t as soft either. It lasts four to six hours for me, and the sillage is moderate. In New Orleans, many people still use cologne waters for both magical and mundane uses. This perfume reminded me of a cologne I used to purchase called Kananga Water. The smell of Heure Intime is aldehydic, floral, and very powdery, giving it a floral but clean, non-offensive smell. Kananga is made with ylang ylang, but I’m having a hard time telling which florals are in Heure.

It is MUCH better than Sortilege , it is spicy and floral and woody all at the same time but with a very coherent and well balanced whole. It is one of the best fragrances of the 30s , only Vigny had not the economic strength of a Chanel or the savvy of a Guerlain and became extinct. Along with Shocking one of the underated perfumes of this era.

The review is for an impeccably preserved sample of Eau de Cologne from an 850ml partially used flacon that I recently acquired. My guess is that the bottle is from the 1940s. There is barely any change to viscosity, I think the amount gone is due to spillage or use. Color is bright orange, and the “vintage skank” blows off very quickly.
Heure Intime is a soapy, sweet, aldehydic floral with Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Beeswax, and Spice on an animalic base of Amber and Sandal. It brings to mind vintage versions of L’Aimant, Chanel 5, & Sortilege. Sillage is low and longevity good- more in line with what we currently expect from an EdT, not an EdC.

I have no idea of how could have been the actual scent, but all these vintage, romantic-style advertisings, are just lovely..! They don’t make like this anylonger.

I bought a small bottle in San Fransisco about 1968. This house of Vigny were superb perfumers. Delightful scent, amber comes to mind. All of their formulas should be re-introduced.
