3. Bal a Versailles (Jean Desprez)

France, 1962

A perfume for those who love warm amber aromas. The Versailles Ball is really a ball. A dizzying ball of flowers, oriental notes, viscous resinous accords. The scent is deep and feminine, complex and long-lasting - for lovers of vintage perfumery.

France, 1930

Joy is one of the most famous fragrances of the French brand Jean Patou, adored by many celebrities. Among them are Audrey Hepburn, Joan Rivers, Jane Seymour. This is a bright and straightforward scent not for every day, but rather for the evening. Or the daytime scent of a confident woman. Two notes of rose, jasmine and tuberose do their floral work, filling the entire base of the composition.

5. 1000 (Jean Patou)

France, 1972

Compared to Joy by Jean Patou, this is a later, less well-known, but no less worthy fragrance. A fragrance with floral notes that are not so straightforward and restrained by woody notes that make it balanced, harmonious and feminine.

6. Fiori Di Capri (Carthusia)

Italy, 1948

Italian fantasy on the theme of the aroma of the island of Capri, but without the traditional citruses for it, but with an emphasis on flowers. This is definitely a perfume for flower lovers, the bouquet of which is spiced with the sweetness of honey, smokiness incense, clove spice, plum and strawberry sweetness, iris powder and elegant depth oriental notes.

7. # 4 (Jil Sander)

Germany, 1990

A stunning aroma with a bright composition that opens with juicy plum and peach, passing a luxurious bouquet of flowers, leaving into a beautiful oriental sillage. A slightly forgotten and not so popular fragrance, which many call a real masterpiece of women's perfumery of the early 90s. It is often compared to Dior's Poison, which it resembles with its thick plum composition.
