Donations are always welcome. If you have found any information on this site useful, and would like to help out, you may donate funds in any denomination via the Paypal button below.


I am also interested in acquiring donated reference books, auction catalogs, ephemera, pamphlets, perfume cards, powder boxes, unwanted cosmetics, training manuals, perfume labels, employee paraphernalia, publicity, press kits, vintage advertisements, perfume samples, bottles, and any perfume or vanity related. Check out my wish lists also for things I am looking for specifically! I will also swap for an appraisal.


Perfumes I want:
  • Any vintage perfumes, preferably sealed if possible.
  • Perfume samples or decants for review

I am interested in acquiring samples. I would like to review these items on my blog. Some perfumes have been discontinued for so many years that there might not be any info about them or notes listed, I would try to list any notes that I detect while reviewing a sample. To send me a donated sample, just contact me thru the contact me page and let me know so I can send you my address. I am interested in any vintage ladies fragrances.

If you have a book, bottle, powder box, company catalog, training manuals, publicity, press kits, auction catalog, or any ephemera and want to donate them, email me at reinedeparfum@gmail.com and I can send my address.

Here is a list of books on perfume that I am actively looking to own. I am interested in purchasing at reasonable prices or trading for perfume appraisals or fragrances that I have for sale. If you would like to donate, that would be greatly appreciated as I want to maintain the utmost accuracy of information in all of my blog posts and websites.

Welcome!

Welcome to my unique perfume blog! Here, you'll find detailed, encyclopedic entries about perfumes and companies, complete with facts and photos for easy research. This site is not affiliated with any perfume companies; it's a reference source for collectors and enthusiasts who cherish classic fragrances. My goal is to highlight beloved, discontinued classics and show current brand owners the demand for their revival. Your input is invaluable! Please share why you liked a fragrance, describe its scent, the time period you wore it, any memorable occasions, or what it reminded you of. Did a relative wear it, or did you like the bottle design? Your stories might catch the attention of brand representatives. I regularly update posts with new information and corrections. Your contributions help keep my entries accurate and comprehensive. Please comment and share any additional information you have. Together, we can keep the legacy of classic perfumes alive!
