Welcome!
Welcome to my unique perfume blog! Here, you'll find detailed, encyclopedic entries about perfumes and companies, complete with facts and photos for easy research. This site is not affiliated with any perfume companies; it's a reference source for collectors and enthusiasts who cherish classic fragrances.
My goal is to highlight beloved, discontinued classics and show current brand owners the demand for their revival.
Your input is invaluable! Please share why you liked a fragrance, describe its scent, the time period you wore it, any memorable occasions, or what it reminded you of. Did a relative wear it, or did you like the bottle design? Your stories might catch the attention of brand representatives.
I regularly update posts with new information and corrections. Your contributions help keep my entries accurate and comprehensive. Please comment and share any additional information you have. Together, we can keep the legacy of classic perfumes alive!

20 Carats by Dana c1933
20 Carats was first introduced in 1933 by Dana who launched Tabu just one year before. Originally only sold in their Parisian boutique, 20 Carats may have only been introduced to American women during this time by soldiers returning from duty in France, bringing home perfumes for their sweethearts, sisters and mothers.

Kiku by Faberge c1967
Kiku by Parfums Fabergé is a classic fragrance that debuted in 1967, encapsulating the essence of its era. The name "Kiku" is derived from the Japanese word for chrysanthemum, a flower deeply rooted in Japanese culture and symbolizing longevity and rejuvenation.
This fragrance captures the spirit of the late 1960s with its unique blend of floral and spicy notes. It exudes a sense of sophistication and mystery, perfect for the confident and elegant woman of its time. The chrysanthemum-inspired theme is reflected not only in the name but also in the fragrance composition, which likely features floral elements alongside other complementary notes.
With its launch in the late 1960s, Kiku by Parfums Fabergé would have been a part of the olfactory landscape of that vibrant era, offering a distinctive scent experience that resonated with the tastes and trends of the time.
