of musk and wood. This crisp elegant scent will delicately perfume both

Perfume history goes back to the
Cleopatra, Rome, Greece and the Far East. Francis I brought back Italian customs
of wearing scent (1525) and Catherine de Medici brought her own perfumer to France.
In the time of Louis XIV (1638-1715), France entered the competition and vied for
control the trade with the East for spices and aromatics. They planted aromatics
and under royal protection the French perfume industry was born and nurtured. His
personal perfumer made a special scent for him each day. In Grasse, perfume
existed since the Middle Ages to cover the odor of leather gloves, and was
extended to soap made from olive oil produced there. Soon even wigs were powdered
with fragrance. The 18th century popularized potpourri in Sèvres porcelain;
eau de cologne (originally scented spirits brought back from Cologne during the
Seven Years War); blending for more complex fragrances; and
crystal perfume bottles. The industry declined
during the French Revolution, but was enhanced by Napoleon both through organic
chemistry and his own use of several bottles a day!
Perfume Basics: Fragrance consists
of essential oils and alcohol. Essential oils carry the true scent and are
costly. There are no international "rules" on definitions and required percentage
of essential oil, but the concentration is progressively less from parfum
(French)/perfume (highest), eau de parfum, eau de toilette, cologne (least), and
the prices will reflect this. Body products ("fragrance layering") are good
for your skin and make your fragrance last longer. Usually, body creme will be "perfumed"
while other products are "fragranced."
