Qui Es-Tu? by Rosine c1926

Qui Es-Tu? by Rosine: launched in 1926. Created by Henri Alméras. The name means "Who are you?" in French.





Fragrance Composition:


So what does it smell like? It is classified as a heavy, spicy floral bouquet fragrance for women, but I have no published notes on this composition. It was described as a "delicate blend with just the faintest hint of spice for interest" aso, "a light spicy perfume, sharp and refreshing to use",  and was suggested to be worn by the "slim, decided blonde."
  • Top notes: lilac, citrus
  • Middle notes: jasmine, lily of the valley, rose
  • Base notes: spices, sandalwood


It was advertised as a "question to which the lilacs will respond to the rose."

Qui est Tu was available in parfum, sachet and talcum powders.




Bottle:

Qui Est Tu came in a 2 ounce size parfum flacon. The bottle is clear glass and has a black glass stopper.





Fate of the Fragrance:


Discontinued, date unknown.

 It was still being sold in 1931.
