The cosmopolitan and glamorous feminine Boucheron by Boucheron was launched in 1988. By the olfactory sense, this fragrance is an amber floral fragrance for women. Boucheron for women was amongst the first set of fragrances that jewelry company Boucheron released into the market. The luxurious fragrance boasted of almost 30 notes, each finding its place on its user’s skin. Itโs opening, heart and base hardly make an exact decision. Each note, weaving their ways and perfectly counterbalancing each other. This fragrance can be sweet or bitter, floral or woody, spicy or fresh, animalic or citrusy.
For the most of its time on the skin, this juicy fragrance changes and camouflages almost willing to be what you want it to be. Its oriental bottle, created by Joel Desgrippes, birthed the idea of the companyโs Cabochon ring design. Boucheron, which had been the voice of a generation of strong willed women was passed down to their heirs like an inheritance and its timeless fragrance fit like a glove on their modern skinsin this time. Boucheron may seem sparkly and bright but it has real depth with the way its perfectly round sweetness is balanced out with a touch of non-repulsive bitterness. Boucheron is no doubt fun and extroverted but it is also overwhelmingly composed. Its long lasting fragrance fits all times and weathers. The noses behind this vintage fragrance are Francis Deleamont and Jean-Pierre Bethouart.ย

Joop! Femme by Joop!ย
Joop! Femme by Joop! is an Amber woody fragrance for women that was launched in 1987. Its aroma, even though it’s a considerably old fragrance, doesn’t necessarily give a time frame.

This may be directly linked to the fact that it opens with citrus, sweet fruity notes and aldehydes. Its floral notes are also present, though the most evident seem to be jasmine and rose, orange blossom and lily of the valley gives it a direction. Its base is animalic, ambery and creamy with vanilla. Like Boucheron, the fragrance is powdery with musk, sweet, floral and aromatic with wood. The nose behind this fragrance is Michel Almairac.ย

Creation 1984 by Ted Lapidus
Ted Lapidusโs โCreation 1984โ is a floral fruity fragrance for women that was launched in 1984. This fragrance has quite an interesting development. Its opening is green, fruity and even a little spicy. But its heart is absolutely floral, it feels like a garden, the type where you can still feel the earth and moss in your fingers. This characteristic is very reminiscent of Boucheron. The base however is woody and even a little bittersweet, not overwhelmingly anyway. It’s exciting how all the sweetness and flowers leads to something so prim and serious.ย
