🔻Before the 1917 revolution, fragrances from Russia were world famous, and perfume bottles were rightfully considered one of the most exquisite.
🔻An amazing perfumer was Vladimir Ferrein, who is now remembered, unfortunately, only by the name of his pharmacy.
🔻The well-known "Красная Москва" “Red Moscow” is a fragrance created for the 300th anniversary of the House of Romanov, which used to be called "Любимый букет императрицы".“The Empress’s Favorite Bouquet”.
🔻However, in Soviet times, the Bolsheviks decided that a simple wash would be enough for the women of the USSR, so the fragrances that conquered the world became a thing of the past.
