Molyneux was established at 5 rue Royale, Paris. The famous couture house was established in 1919 by Edward Molyneux, a gentleman of Irish origins, and a London-born designer who trained at Lucile Ltd. He was the first 20th century British couturier, working in Paris who was able to impose the British clothing taste, sober, classic fashions that were very successful.
Edward Molyneux was a fashion designer of some distinction in the early part of the 20th century. His first love was painting, but his true artistry quickly turned to fashion when he won a design contest sponsored by the heralded veteran fashion designer, Lady Lucille Duff-Gordon. Lucille, impressed by the work of such a young and talented man, subsequently gave him a job at her couture house.
Fête de Molyneux was launched in 1927. This luxurious perfume is a delisious rich dark fruity chypre.
