History of fragrance

The first documented fragrance formula was from ancient Egypt. In the ancient times, people relate the use of fragrance to religion. They attempted to connect to gods with the ceremony and diffusing sacred smoke.

Though Persia is able to extract fragrant essential oil and carry it around in containers thousands of years ago, it’s France that makes fragrance widely known.

During the Middle Ages, the Black Death disease was rampant, desperate people believed that perfume could purify their body and soul. French nobles put on perfume to dispel evil spirits and diseases and meanwhile cover their body odour. The nobles in western Europe imitate each other and follow the trend. Gradually, they spread the habit of wearing perfume to all class. Grasse ,located in the south of  France ,is the city of perfume. Its unique Mediterranean climate and geographic advantage provide abundant quality flower material for perfume. Combined with the outstanding technique of perfume production, Grasse still remains the center of perfume industry nowadays.
