Lucien Lelong's fragrance "Taglio" has an interesting history. Originally launched in 1928 as "Parfum N," it was later renamed "Taglio" for the US market in 1945. This renaming could have been part of a strategic marketing effort to better appeal to American consumers during the post-war era, a period when French perfumes were particularly sought after. Lucien Lelong, a prominent French couturier and perfumer, was known for his elegant and sophisticated fragrances, and "Taglio" is likely reflective of his signature style, characterized by a blend of classic and innovative elements.

Those who originally embraced these sensual musk oils during their heyday often remain deeply loyal, driven by a nostalgic connection to their unique aroma. This ongoing demand has led to a significant increase in prices, with vintage musk oils commanding exorbitant amounts in the secondary market.
