Vougay Perfumes

Vougay of Paris, launched fragrances in the early 1930s. They were a short lived company and there is no information on them at this time. Their green slag glass flacons were manufactured by Cristalleries de Nancy. I do know that Vougay also produced face powders.

Their perfumes seem to be quite inexpensive as in 1932, their perfume retailed for just $1.00 normally but was on sale at one retailer for just $0.45.


The perfumes of Vougay:
  • 1930 Narcisse
  • 1930 Nuit de Mai
  • 1930 Nuit de Juin
  • 1930 Fleur de Oranger
  • 1930 Sweet Pea Ambree
  • 1930 Black

Welcome!

This is not your average perfume blog. In each post, I present perfumes or companies as encyclopedic entries with as much facts and photos as I can add for easy reading and researching without all the extraneous fluff or puffery.

Please understand that this website is not affiliated with any of the perfume companies written about here, it is only a source of reference. I consider it a repository of vital information for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by. Updates to posts are conducted whenever I find new information to add or to correct any errors.

One of the goals of this website is to show the present owners of the various perfumes and cologne brands that are featured here how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!

Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table, did you like the bottle design), who knows, perhaps someone from the company brand might see it.

Also, if you have any information not seen here, please comment and share with all of us.
