Welcome!

Welcome to my unique perfume blog! Here, you'll find detailed, encyclopedic entries about perfumes and companies, complete with facts and photos for easy research. This site is not affiliated with any perfume companies; it's a reference source for collectors and enthusiasts who cherish classic fragrances. My goal is to highlight beloved, discontinued classics and show current brand owners the demand for their revival. Your input is invaluable! Please share why you liked a fragrance, describe its scent, the time period you wore it, any memorable occasions, or what it reminded you of. Did a relative wear it, or did you like the bottle design? Your stories might catch the attention of brand representatives. I regularly update posts with new information and corrections. Your contributions help keep my entries accurate and comprehensive. Please comment and share any additional information you have. Together, we can keep the legacy of classic perfumes alive!

Paul Boyer Perfumes

Parfums Paul Boyer was established around 1940 in Paris France. The company's name was often seen spelled as Pavl Boyer in advertisements. Some popular and prestigious artists helped to create the presentations for Paul Boyer. Georges Lepape designed the box for Bandoura and A.E. Marty designed the presentation box for the perfume Coreoba.














The company seems to be short lived and may have only survived into the mid 1950s.
