The Parfums d'Orsay get their name from Count Gabriel Alfred Guillaume d'Orsay, the son of a baroness and a general in Napoleon's Empire. The Chevalier d'Orsay's genteel upbringing among literary and political stars of the time informed his lifelong appreciation of beauty and elegance, with his natural affectation, provocative style, and sense of refinement marking him as a dandy and a trendsetter for the times. A multi-talented artist, the Chevalier created his first fragrances out of love in 1830. His uncanny ability to draw out delicate fragrances with his sensitive chemist's nose made for popular perfumes created with skillful formulas that remain carefully preserved to this day. After his death in 1852, his family preserved his legacy with the Compagnie Francaise des Parfums d'Orsay, which continues its tradition of developing remarkable fragrances for the luxury market to this day. 50 ml. Product of France.
