Parfumerie Burval - Parfums de Luxe

Société des Parfums de Luxe Burval - Saint-Denis, 161, Boulevard Ornano.



Burval was a short lived French perfume company who produced some very lovely Art Deco presentations using Julien Viard bottles. A particularly beautiful presentation is the frosted bottle molded in the shape of an ancient oil lamp with a tiny nude figure nestled into the handle. This extremely rare bottle produced by Depinoix was used for the perfume Ambre by Burval, and also for the perfume company Maharajah.



The perfumes of Burval:

  • 1924 Chypre du Roy
  • 1924 Cyprival
  • 1924 Les Fleurs
  • 1925 Haliopsis
  • 1926 Oeillet
  • 1926 Sotilye
  • 1926 Genet Fleurie
  • 1926 Lavande
  • 1926 Violette

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.
