Les Parfums d’Argelys

Les Parfums d’Argelys of Paris.


The perfumes of d'Argelys
:

  • 1925 Amante
  • 1925 Les Fleurs d'Argelys
  • 1925 Amour Sans Fin
  • 1925 Eau de Cologne d'Argelys 
  • 1925 Origan Vestale
  • 1925 Pourquoi je t'aime
  • 1930 Cri du Jour


Associated Brands:

Les Parfums d'Arguilla, associated with Parfums Jean Florian (Jean Florian listed as a bankrupted retailer in wholesale perfumery at 31 avenue de l'Opera in Paris in The Moci: International Trade Monitor from 1960). Probably same company as d'Argelys.

I believe that the company was first named d'Argelys, then changed to d'Arguilla and then d'Aguila by the 1940s. The d'Argelys company may have been used for the French and US market, and the other two for the South American market.
  • 1920 Amante 
  • 1920 Eau de Cologne d'Argelys 
  • 1927 Rêve de Noël  
  • 1930 Carnaval de Fleurs  
  • 1930 Amour Sans Fin  


 Les Parfums d'Aguila: (same company as above?)
  • 1945 Carnaval de Fleurs, presented in music boxes  
  • 1945 Reve de Noel, presented in music boxes  



Bottles:



The black bottle and the identical bottle in clear glass used for Amante and Eau de Cologne d'Argelys was made by H. Saumont glassworks in France. This bottle was used by other companies as well such as Miro Dena.

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.
