Musique - Get Out and Get Under the Moon by Annette Hanshaw
As a huge fan of the 1920s and 1930s, I like to emulate 20s and 30s style when I can. This includes perfume. I searched everywhere online for perfumes that were created and/or were very popular during these two decades. I came up with the following list of perfumes that are still available today (although perhaps the formulations may have changed a bit over time):
Caron:
Alpona (1939)
Bellodgia (1927)
En Avion (1929)
Fleur de Rocaille (1934)
French Cancan (1936)
Narcisse Blanc (1922)
Nuit de Noël (1922)
Pois de Senteur de Chez Moi (1927)
Jean Patou:
Adieu, Sagesse (1925)
Amour Amour (1925)
Cocktail Bitter Sweet (1930)
Joy (1930)
Moment Suprême (1929)
Que sais-je? (1925)
Guerlain:
Candide Effluve (1922)
Coque d’Or (1937)
Djedi (1927)
L'Eau de Fleurs de Cedrat (1920)
Liu (1929)
Shalimar (1925)
Sous Le Vent (1934)
Véga (1936)
Vol de Nuit (1933)
But, when I actually tried some of these perfumes on, I didn't like them. They were too strong, too powdery, just not "me". And yes, I know, perfumes were much stronger back then, so it's no surprise that I didn't like them. But I'm not giving up - I'm sure there's a vintage perfume out there that suits my tastes!
