Magnificent compact powder compact with Art Deco pattern dating from the 1930s.

Design created by René Lalique for François Coty and his perfume L'Origan (1905) which perfumes this powder.

"Oregano is one of François Coty's masterpieces. Created in 1905, it is based on a daring blend of floral notes – orange blossom, jasmine, rose, violet – enveloped in a vanilla base and enhanced with a carnation note, which made it the first spicy floral amber perfume in the history of perfumery. Its subtle accord gave it gigantic and lasting success and inspired many perfumers subsequently. From “bases” offered by composition houses which incorporated the very latest synthetic molecules, this exceptional fragrance was later used to perfume powders, particularly for the American market which was crazy about it. period that dates the term "powdered" to describe a perfume. This perfume is emblematic of the global dimension that the ambitious company of the Corsican entrepreneur has reached in a short time." (Source: Osmothèque de Versailles).
