Vintage Crepe De Chine Parfum - F. Millot retailer - Original 1/2 ounce Bottle - Gold Flower Shaped Cap - 1/3 full

Vintage Crepe De Chine Parfum - F. Millot - Original 1/2 ounce Bottle - Gold Flower Shaped Cap - 1/3 full from DecadencePast.

Crêpe de Chine is an F. Millot fragrance from 1925 from Paris, France. Provocative and fascinating, it is a true classic. This fragrance was created by Jean Desprez as a classic chypre floral with great depth and a 'leathery drydown'. Crêpe de Chine was launched at the 1925 Paris Art Deco Exposition. The perfume derives its name from the fine silk fabric of that name, which was a new material at the time.

The original Crêpe de Chine perfume has been discontinued since 1968. I believe this particular bottle was purchased in the late 40s or early 50s and the design of the cap is a little different from some of the shorter bottles.

This fragrance has top notes of Neroli, Bergamot, Basil, Peru Oil and Aldehydes. Its heart notes are Gardenia, Ylang Ylang, Sage, Rose Otto, Chamomile, and Jasmine. Base noes are exotic Sandalwood, Musk, Oak Moss, Vanilla, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Benzoin.

Crêpe de Chine is a stunning, world class perfume. From old marketing: "The scent has a clean, fresh entry with a gorgeous full bodied green floral accord at its heart, all over retailer creamy, dreamy exotic woods. Crêpe de Chine envelopes you with beauty beyond compare.”

Offered here is a lovely, 3" tall, 1/2 ounce flacon that appears to be slightly over 1/3 full. Although I believe it was opened by its 96 year old previous owner in her younger years; it's spent most of its later life unopened on a mirrored vanity tray evoking memories of old romance and better times.
