Florence Nightingale Graham lived from December 31, 1878 to October 18, 1966, who went by the business name Elizabeth Arden, was a Canadian-born American businesswoman who founded what is now Elizabeth Arden, Inc., and built a cosmetics empire in the United States. By 1929 she owned 150 upscale salons across the United States and Europe. Her 1000 products were found in the luxury market in 22 countries. She was the sole owner, and at the peak of her career, she was one of the wealthiest women in the world.
Florence Nightingale Graham was born in Canada in 1878, but was always known as Elizabeth Arden. She herself created this commercial name by merging the titles of her two favorite books.
The place chosen by Elizabeth Arden to open her first beauty salon was Fifth Avenue in New York. This place was distinguished by the red entrance door, the decoration in pink tones and, above all, the exoticism of its products and the professionalism in the service. Some characteristic details that would never abandon the Arden brand. In 1915, the red door of the New York salon became the symbol of the business, and the chain of aesthetic centers called Red Door Salons or Salons of the Red Door was created.
A demanding and intuitive businesswoman, Arden created revolutionary aesthetic products, such as false eyelashes. One of the most important bets, however, was the perfume.
From the 20s, the first essences were born, original and presented in an attractive way. The fragrances stood out for their originality, as shown by the attractive and daring presentations that Elizabeth designed especially for Christmas and other parties. Elizabeth Arden was much influenced by the great perfumer Babani, who made fragrances especially for Arden.
