In the light of a variety and availability of glass items, glass ware is still appreciated by plenty people, especially when it comes to cut glass. The cut glass produces a long, lingering and musical tune when you put your finger at the cut-glass edge. So, in Japan the craftsmen make unique musical instruments. A crystal violin, completely transparent, is estimated for fifty thousand USD. Crystal glass tableware is not so much expensive though it is able to produce the charming, unique and so brittle music providing it is properly cared.
Wealthy persons are mostly known for their fortune only. However, despite they make billions, these people possess some personal features that attract people when estimating them. While Warren shovels up money, he has to do with quite conflicting image he created: he is known to be the proved miser and at the same time he privately donates huge amounts for charity purposes.
Created by Jacques
Guerlain in 1919 Mitsouko became one of fragrances in the chypre line still
demanded till now. Jacques Guerlain continued the tradition in perfume
production initiated by the unique, the most initial chypre scent by Coty, creating
the second vital scent in the family of chypre fragrances. Willing to experiment,
the famous perfumer combined quite unusual notes, both natural and synthetic in
Mitsouko scent several years prior to appearance of the first aldehydic-floral
odor, Chanel №5.
Most scents
on the base of chypre are defined with the match of citric upper notes
and the
end note of the oak moss; Mitsouko is rather the fruity-and-chypre odor
when
the scent of the juicy peach is added to classic components that give
special and
a little bit sweet odor to the perfume compound. The synthetic note of
peach made
by aldehyde C14 allowed having Mitsuoko as unusual, astringent and
elegant
fragrance, and the notes are well balanced. This scent is not too
sweet, nor very heavy. Besides, the perfume compound includes the
notes of bergamot, lemon,
rose, jasmine and spices. Mitsouko Guerlain has all the rights to be
accepted as
the status fragrance altogether with Chanel №5. The scent has all the
noble and
elegant notes intrinsic to scents proven by the time. Thanks to Jacques
Guerlain and his art Mitsouko, the whole Europe fell in the concern
with the
culture of Japan.
Initially Mitsouko
Guerlain was designed exclusively for women, and the true admirers of the scent
were legendary Ingrid Bergman and French actress Ines de la Fressange. Nevertheless,
Mitsouko was successfully demanded by men as well, including the famous actor Charley
Chaplin, who loved Mitsouko Guerlain to the extent that he sprayed the perfume
onto the furniture in his house, and Sergey Dyagilev, who once admitted that Mitsouko
Guerlain scent reminds of home to him. Mitsouko Guerlain being the favorite
scent of the legendary actress Jean Harlow played its fatal joke to her. The second
husband of the actress committed the suicide because they finally parted and
before he died he poured the entire bottle of Mitsuoko onto himself.
Mitsouko
Guerlain has one of the prominent histories in the perfume world. The fragrance
got its name to honor the heroine of the novel La Bataille by Claude Farrère. This
novel is dedicated to romantic and tragic love history between Mitsuoko, the
young wife to the Japanese admiral Togo, and a British officer. The Russian-Japanese War of 1905
parted
the beloved couple.
The spouse of Mitsuoko and a British
officer appeared at the different ends, and Mitsuoko had to wait the final and
arrival of her beloved, hiding her real emotions. The history final is rather tragic:
her both men died in the battle, and Mitsuoko committed a suicide when she
heard of the news.
The word
«Mitsouko» means «secret» in Japanese, and the scent totally expresses the
symbol, and a rare man can evaluate the mystic charm of Mitsouko Guerlain.
Mitsouko Guerlain is assigned for an elegant and calm woman, a little bit enigmatic,
as well as any woman with the secret. The fragrance itself is quite abstract,
it is rater hard to define and express separate notes that go in harmony with
other notes.
Rather graceful
bottle from crystal for Mitsouko was created by Baccarat and does differ in
design from the bottle of L'Heure Bleue perfume launched by Guerlain House in
1912. Both these bottles symbolized the start (L'Heure Bleue) and the final
(Mitsuoko) of the World War I.
Mitsouko
Guerlain is still on production being one of the demanded perfumes by Guerlain
House. However, like many other vintage scents, Mitsouko Guerlain ceased
existing as it was before. Subject to new requirements by the Associations of
Perfumers Edward Fresh sometime back managed to re-formulate the perfume
compound of the icon scent, removing the notes of oak moss, and thus depriving Mitsouko
Guerlain of its unique odor.
Lingerie for women was just the plain underwear until the 20th century when it became the mean self-expression, as the subject of esthetic admiration. A piece of lingerie seen in between the women wear looked quite shocking to be shame and no one thought of designing luxury items based on lingerie, leaving alone works of art. Today every woman dreams of having a pair, or even more, of luxury and high quality lingerie to associate with sexuality, sensibility and attraction with male.
Today the knitwear is presented in so many styles and
it is so popular that no single autumn and spring collections can do without
hosiery. Knit
women's coats are offered in classic, sporty, romantic, vintage, casual and
ethnic styles. The demand for knit coats
grows in line with the more increasing range of color and texture of woolen
yarn as merino wool, angora, alpaca, Kashmir. Globally known brands launch knit
coats for women in their latest collections and most celebrities today appear
wearing knitwear for many occasions and that's hard to picture that some time
back it was something different.

First established in 1860, Chopard is one of the reputed watch and jewelry houses producing incredibly beautiful, fascinating jewelry items and watches of dream. The house also launched a number of celebrated fragrances as Casmir, Wish, Madness and Infiniment. Despite the long and solid history of the brand, it appeared only recently in the market of fragrances with the first fragrance Chopard launched only in 1992. Six years later, in 1996, the Chopard House presented its Mira-Bai, the fragrance which is still in favor among women keen on oriental scents. Mira-Bai shows no intentions to compete with such a fashion-setter in the sphere of oriental compositions as Guerlain Shalimar, though the fragrance by Chopard takes its niche among the classic perfumes in the market of oriental perfume.
