Description

Product information "Alpa 'Violet' Cologne ('Fialka' - lilac)"

>A nostalgic scent of the 1920/30s: Violet

Ordinary people in the 1920/30s could not afford the expensive import fragrances from England or France. Nevertheless they wanted to wear the favored scents of these days. Besides lavender and rose these were lily of the valley (a clean, neat fragrance), violet (a delicately romantic scent) and clove (the seducer scent). The Bohemian Factory Alpa offered to these scents at an affordable price. Today these clear, nostalgic fragrances are particularly popular with old ladies and gentlemen.

The "Alpa Violet Eau de Cologne" (in Czech and "Alpa Fialka Kolínská Voda") is one of the most popular scents of the 1920s and 1930s. Violet has a delicate, romantic fragrance, and was a popular fragrance with amorous ladies. At that time there was besides colognes and perfumes, also talcum powder, hair oils and pomades with a scent of violets.
Eau de cologne in general does not smell as heavy and intense as perfume, but mild and unobtrusive. This cologne is applied at will instead of a perfume, usually on the neck or behind the ears. Due to the warmth the fragrance unfolds very well at this place of true body. 

Packed in a classic small glass bottle.

Alpa Fougére Eau de Cologne

Classic Eau de Cologne with Fern, Lavender, and Oakmoss – Alpa Fougère Traditional Eau de Cologne from the Czech Republic featuring an elegant fougère fragrance with notes of lavender, oakmoss, fern, and fresh hay. A refined men's scent in the spirit of the 1930s and 1940s. Presented in an extraordinary glass bottle. Made in the Czech Republic. The Alpa Fougère Eau de Cologne is one of those rare fragrances that instantly brings a bygone era back to life. Produced by the historic Czech company Alpa, renowned for its high-quality grooming and fragrance products since 1913, this cologne embodies the elegance of classic men's grooming like few other fragrances in its price range. Even the distinctive glass bottle makes it clear that this is no ordinary Eau de Cologne. The heavy, checkered glass design recalls the bathrooms and dressing tables of the 1930s and 1940s, giving Alpa Fougère its unmistakably nostalgic character. The Fragrance The name Fougère is French for "fern" and refers to one of the most important fragrance families in traditional perfumery. Its origins trace back to the legendary "Fougère Royale," introduced in Paris in 1882 and still regarded as the blueprint for countless men's fragrances today. Alpa Fougère interprets this classic fragrance style in a particularly authentic manner. Fresh lavender opens the composition and blends harmoniously with the warm, green notes of oakmoss, tree moss, and coumarin. Coumarin gives the fragrance its characteristic impression of fresh hay, fern, and dried herbs. The result is a refined, fresh, and exceptionally stylish men's fragrance that never feels loud or overpowering. Instead, it accompanies its wearer discreetly throughout the day, conveying the effortless elegance associated with the gentlemen of the 1930s and 1940s. A Timeless Everyday Fragrance Alpa Fougère is an excellent daily companion. Its light Eau de Cologne structure provides pleasant freshness, while the classic fougère notes remain subtly noticeable for many hours. Enthusiasts of traditional men's fragrances particularly appreciate the understated nature of this scent. It feels clean, refined, and full of character without ever becoming dominant. As a result, it is equally suitable for the office, leisure time, and special occasions. It is no coincidence that Fougère is considered one of the favorite fragrances within the Alpa company itself and is regarded by connoisseurs as one of the finest classic men's fragrances from Eastern Europe. The Extraordinary Bottle A special highlight is the unique glass bottle. Its bold checkered pattern gives it a distinctive appearance and makes it a true eye-catcher in any bathroom. Combined with the nostalgic label, Alpa Fougère looks like a treasured find from a long-forgotten era. Directions: Apply Alpa Fougère Eau de Cologne as desired to the neck, face, upper body, or clothing. It provides a pleasant refreshing effect while leaving behind a subtle, well-groomed fragrance. As a traditional Eau de Cologne, it is not specifically intended for post-shave use.

Blue Waltz Perfume

The High School Ladies' Perfume of the 1950s   First produced in 1927, Blue Waltz became an elegant luxury perfume in the 1930s, promoted by Hollywood stars such as Myrna Loy and Alice White. Back then it cost only 10 cents and by the 1950s it had become a popular fragrance among teenage girls, evoking wonderful memories of wild jukebox dances and romantic moments at the graduation ball. Among the fragrance notes are vanilla, lemon, clove, red rose, powdery notes, benzoin resin, oakmoss, geranium and coumarin. Made in the USA and unchanged since the 1950s in its iconic small heart-shaped glass bottle. Blue Waltz is still packaged today in a beautiful heart-shaped glass bottle only 8 cm tall. The perfume is honey- to cognac-colored and delivers a romantic, light sweet-powdery-spicy-fresh scent reminiscent of vanilla, green tea, cinnamon, anise and, in a way, festive holiday spices. The fragrance is clear and sexy, surprisingly light and refreshing. Even back in the day, Blue Waltz was a beautiful, fascinating and seductive scent. And today, women wearing it will still turn heads and hear the question: “What perfume is that?”. By the way, the fragrance composition of Blue Waltz was copied by a very well-known American brand for charming ladies’ lingerie and released under its own perfume label. Directions: Apply a drop of Blue Waltz to your neck and feel transported to a magical night in 1955 when the high school band opened the prom with “Oh, What a Night”. The perfume comes in a small heart-shaped bottle.
