Charles Faÿ Perfumery was established at 9 rue de la Paix, Paris, in 1850 by Charles Faÿ and at that time it was known as Maison Faÿ. They were purveyors of perfumes, cosmetics and toiletries. They were best known for their powder Veloutine, and therefore changed their name to Parfumerie Veloutine after they won a gold medal for it at the 1900 Exposition.
Not a whole lot is known about Ch. Faÿ since he was making perfume at a time when few records were kept. I have just a few bottles of his perfumes in my personal collection, and I can attest to their beautiful feminine appeal, delicate floral scents, and heavenly presentation. The company disappeared as a result of the financial crisis of 1929.
Charme de Femme is an essentially soft feminine floral perfume, with delicate floral notes. There are no notes on the Internet to be found, and I can't find anything in my books about the composition. I would think it would be structured something like this ..
Top notes are Orange Blossom, Honeysuckle, and Mandarin
Heart notes are Rose, Jasmine, Lilac, and Lily of the Valley
Base note is Sandalwood
Offered here is a charming little bottle of this long lost perfume. I can attest to the truth that all the Charles Faÿ perfumes I have come across have been really gorgeous .. This one is utterly lovely ..
Was $160 .. Now $70 ..
