Fragrance information:
Introducing Vigny Le Golliwogg — a fragrance born in the age of jazz and bold experimentation.
Released in 1919, this women's perfume became a true olfactory manifesto of the French perfume house Vigny.
Founded in Paris by brothers Jacques and Lucien Vogel, Vigny embodied aristocratic romanticism and elegance from its earliest days.
Perfumer Jacques Vogel created Le Golliwogg, infusing the composition with all the daring spirit of the post-war decade.
The fragrance is dedicated to a character from an English children's book, coinciding with the arrival of Europe's first Black jazz orchestra, and reflects a spirit of freedom and cultural exchange.
Created in Eau de Cologne concentration, Le Golliwogg has a remarkably very strong sillage — a rarity for such a light format.
The fragrance belongs to the Floral and Oriental families, blending the delicacy of petals with the warmth of resins and spices.
The pyramid unfolds like a musical composition: sparkling aldehydes and tart bergamot set the rhythm, giving way to a floral heart of jasmine, lily of the valley, rose, violet, and spicy ylang-ylang.
The base is a velvety symphony of amber, patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver, oakmoss, vanilla, tonka bean, styrax, civet, and musk.
Le Golliwogg is an ideal choice for evenings out and special occasions. Its rich, sensual character calls for confidence, yet rewards you with an unforgettable presence.
If you have fallen in love with this fragrance, consider these related compositions: Van Cleef & Arpels First, Penhaligon's Artemisia, and Avon Patchouli Indulgence — they share the same depth and complexity.
