Courvoisier Perfumes

Courvoisier Perfumes & Soaps, established by the eponymous French cognac manufacturer in the early 1900s, and distributed exclusively by Bronnley of England.

Courvoisier produced perfume, soap, cosmetics and toiletries. Some of their cosmetics and skincare items were the Mimosa, for whitening and softening the skin, Cleansing Fluid for removing stains from the nails and fingers, Nail Polish, Cuticle Cream and their Royal Orange Stick, for manicures, and for men, they made a Fine Shaving Stick Soap.


The most celebrated odors from the company were the CC Perfumes (Courvoisier's Concentrated) which were alcohol-free perfumes of various flowers plus the famous scents Omar Khayyam, Viotto and Havanita.


Welcome!

This is not your average perfume blog. In each post, I present perfumes or companies as encyclopedic entries with as much facts and photos as I can add for easy reading and researching without all the extraneous fluff or puffery.

Please understand that this website is not affiliated with any of the perfume companies written about here, it is only a source of reference. I consider it a repository of vital information for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by. Updates to posts are conducted whenever I find new information to add or to correct any errors.

One of the goals of this website is to show the present owners of the various perfumes and cologne brands that are featured here how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!

Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table, did you like the bottle design), who knows, perhaps someone from the company brand might see it.

Also, if you have any information not seen here, please comment and share with all of us.
