Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
Muguet 16 was one of the greatest lily of the valley bases. Created by Marius
Reboul in 1929 for Givaudan (founded by Léon Givaudan in 1895 at the young age
of 20 with his brother Xavier, eight years his senior), Muguet 16 went on to
feature in numerous fragrances over the decades, including Mais Oui by Bourjois.
So popular was Muguet 16 that it was copied by every fragrance house (right up
to Drogco as late as the 1960s in their Muguet Nouveau base).
Muguet 16 is a real delight and despite the limited number of materials
available to perfumers in the early 20th century is perhaps a more perfect fit
for modern fragrances than most classical Muguet bases.
Reboul constructed this base with a very light hand, using transparent materials
over heavier ones, and so, for example, we find Cinnamyl Acetate taking the
place of the far heavier Cinnamic Alcohol favoured at the time. Every material
is balanced to perfection and the resulting base stands as a testament to the
brilliance of this gentleman who is perhaps more famous for his bases than his
perfumes.
Long gone from the modern perfumer's palette (and tragically long forgotten by
most), we are thrilled to be able to offer our restoration of this timeless
masterpiece to our discerning clients.
If you are interested in Marius Reboul's work, we also offer his Amarante
[https://fraterworks.com/products/amarante] base, Sophira
[https://fraterworks.com/products/sophira-800498] (the key to Rigaud's Un Air
Embaume from 1914).
