Le Chevalier de la Nuit (Knight of the Night) was launched in France in 1923 by Parfums Ciro. It was introduced to America in 1924 according to some newspaper articles of the day. Parfums Ciro was founded in 1921 in New York, at first obtaining all its fragrances from Gabilla in Paris, already bottled. These included 'Doux Jasmin', 'Chevalier de la Nuit' and 'Maskee', all issued in 1923.
"Le Chevalier de la Nuit" was an enchanting fragrance, steeped in the mystique of its name. It's fascinating how it traveled from France to America, carrying with it the essence of Parisian allure. Parfums Ciro's partnership with Gabilla in Paris adds another layer of intrigue to its story, hinting at a collaboration that bridged continents to bring luxury scents to eager consumers. The names of the fragrances themselves, "Doux Jasmin," "Chevalier de la Nuit," and "Maskee," evoke a sense of romance and sophistication, capturing the imagination of those who seek olfactory experiences beyond the ordinary. It's a reminder of how perfume can be not just a scent, but a journey through time and space, encapsulating the spirit of an era.
