Les Creations Guyla

Les Creations Guyla, established in 1926 at 40 rue de Paris, Epinay-sur-Seine, they made exceptional rare presentations. Guyla's bottles were in the shape of champagne flutes, decorated with hand painted floral designs by Paul Poiret's company Atelier Martine. Guyla was a very short lived company and not much info is to be found on them.

Divin Narcisse was a floral fragrance with notes of camomile, myrtle, spices, ylang-ylang, jasmine, patchouli, vetiver, amber and sandalwood.

Divin Narcisse, was presented in a very rare colorless glass vial shaped like a champagne glass,  two very thin blown glass walls, the fragrance is contained between the two. Beautiful enameled decoration of colored flowers. Label on golden tassel. Gold embossed label under the base. It is possible to find these bottles with different hand painted enamel decoration as each one is one of a kind.






The perfumes of Guyla:

  • 1926 Caresse Parisienne
  • 1926 Divin Narcisse
  • 1926 Charmes de Toute Heure
  • 1926 Embuscade du Coeur

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.
