Tabac Blond- created in 1919 by the brilliant Ernest Daltroff [founder of, and master perfumer for the House of Caron]-

Memoir Woman is an opulent creature.
She is so lavish in texture and weight, like the richest patisserie- that one might require a digestif after experiencing her abundance.
Absolue Pour le Soir is an all-night party animal, a lurking beast to their noses.
A sultry dominatrix, a panther.
It feels vastly different to me; a natural expansion of my own womanliness, the embrace that both comforts and seduces.
Now that the 2010 calendar has begun its final quarter, the editorial team at Ca Fleure Bon is beginning to reacquaint ourselves with our cold-weather favorites. Ida takes no prisoners, Michelyn is craving sophistication, Skye tries to keep summer with her just a bit longer and for Mark…its cashmere, tobacco and spices.
Liz has been working on a new line of oil –based fragrances – alcohol-free, fuss-free, unplugged [to paraphrase the lady], and a full-bodied free-for-all.
FUN.
These are tiny treasures.
Intense.
A little dab’ll do ya.
A ‘perfume created early in my career’, intended to utilize as many best beloved aromas of the finest quality available …
Such was Mandy Aftel’s aspiration for her solid perfume Alchemy.
