La Femme Chic, 1945:
"For those who do not want to wear aggressive perfume, note Recital de Millot with its sweet floral aromas; and more particularly Espoir de Paquin. This delicate creation seems to us to be the 'beginner's' dream perfume, to be recommended to young girls who, without wanting to age, quite rightly have the impression of not yet being a woman as long as they do not have perfume. In Espoir we find the familiar scents of flowers from our home, our gardens and our countryside, from all the seasons and all the provinces. The result is a fresh, fresh scent of exquisite youthfulness."
