Partage by Faberge c1979

Partage by Faberge: launched in 1979.  The word "Partage" is a French word meaning "Sharing".


Partage and Cavale were two high-priced women's fragrances brought in from Faberge's French subsidiary (Parfums Faberge, Inc).  These perfumes were not relegated to drug stores like their previous fragrances, but were sold only in department stores. One ounce of Partage parfum retailed for $90, a half ounce for $60 and the quarter ounce housed in a golden metal case for $30.

Fragrance Composition: 

So what does it smell like? It is classified as a bitter green floral woody chypre fragrance for women. It starts off with a spicy, green floral top, followed by a rose emphasized floral heart, resting n a sensual, woody, mossy base.
  • Top notes: aldehydes, spice oils, citrus oils, green note, flower calyx note, galbanum and bergamot
  • Middle notes: violet, rose, lily of the valley, orris, jasmine, lily
  • Base notes: cedar, oakmoss, civet, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, musk, amber, vanilla

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.
