Archduchess Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna of the Hapsburgs, Dauphine and Queen of France, was born 261 years ago today.  A fancy, foolish female; a victim of her circumstances!
“We had a beautiful dream and that was all…” Marie Antoinette

In celebration of her birthday November 2,  I am reminded that natural perfumery has been around for a very long time and has been cherished by some very high born royals.  Marie Antoinette loved perfumes and finery so much that she commissioned many perfumes and cosmetics from her perfumer Jean-Louis Fargeon.  The nobility wore only the most refined perfumes.

I created Marie Antoinette eau de parfum and parfum in her honor.  It is located in the Perfumes Past tab under the Royal Collection of natural perfumes.  Go there now and have your very own classic French eau de parfum!
