The Maison Molinard was founded in 1849 in Grasse, Provence, in the south of France, cradle of the world's perfume industry. It has remained an entirely family-run business to this day, and is also the oldest of its kind. At that time, Molinard produced floral waters and Eaux de Cologne, which it sold in its "little shop" in the town centre. In 1891, Queen Victoria stayed at Grasse, and bought Eaux de Cologne there.

In 1900, the company moved into an old perfume factory, where the distillery structure was designed by Gustave Eiffel. Molinard is still there today. A typical Provençal showroom was set up, and its first customers were wealthy foreigners from England and Russia. They came to admire its magnificent collection of 17th and 18th century furniture, and buy Molinard eaux de Cologne together with all its floral fragrances.

Nirmala by Molinard was launched in 1955. It was originally created as a marriage of the flowers of Provence and the rare essences of India.

Top notes are Mandarin Orange, Grapefruit, Passionfruit, Mango, and Pomelo
Heart notes are Jasmine and Exotic Floral Notes
Base notes are Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood, and Virginia Cedar

I personally love this beautiful perfume .. it's like a tropical fruit salad with exotic flowers! It is beautiful on the skin and it's sad that the old version has been replaced with a completely new set of notes.

Offered here is a half ounce flacon with its original box. It is still sealed with a little evaporation. So lovely!
