The Cockerel’s Cologne: Did the French invent perfume or did perfume invent the French?
from Garlic & Pearls
Taking as a starting point a highly symbolic empty bottle of Eau de Cologne discovered by Suzanne in Denmark, Muriel explores the ways in which the French took possession of perfume – climate, savoir-faire, aristocratic patronage and the culture of display and seductiveness that developed in the 19th century.
