From 1941: L'Origan, For Your Golden Moments


Simply because I think this ad is beautiful.

It was first made by Coty in 1905!

From 1947: When You're In Love



Such an enchanting and beautiful ad.  I love it.

 According to one of my favorite sites, Fragrantica, Muguet des Bois is the work of nose Henri Robert, who created another of my favorite scents, Cristalle.

Notice Mom's saucy beret and gloves in the left image.
After all, a gal's gotta be dressed properly when she goes to the A&P!

From 1967: Gorgeous Is Your Dior


Just a really lovely ad, I think.

You can close your eyes and imagine how happy that elegant woman is to receive a bountiful bouquet of trembling pink and white blossoms. Freesia, perhaps?

I believe it was illustrated by the legendary artist Rene Gruau,
who created all of Christian Dior's stunning fashion illustrations for decades.
