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.
