essences that give unique notes to fragrances and from the invention of
aldehydes fragrances like the famous Chanel n.5. In Europe, as well as in America,
fragrances become real artworks and original creations of couturier perfumes
were sold worldwide. The most famous scents of that era were called with
evocative names that recall precise feelings, because now what matters is the
message that is transmitted with them. The first men's eau de toilets also come

different fragrances that increasingly aimed at consumers trying to meet their
