Actually, all her scents were always a bit idiosyncratic, a bit repellent, distant in any case, sometimes a bit creaky and almost always gently melancholic. She wore Mitsouko, Je reviens, Soir de Paris, L'air du Temps, Paloma Picasso's Mon Parfum, Jicky and Blue Grass. Jicky falls a little bit out of the line, but also only a little bit, because Jicky isn't really pleasing and catchy either. She wore Jicky only on really festive occasions and he stood her perfectly. It's still too big for me, but who knows, maybe it'll stand up to me someday. Blue Grass is perhaps the most idiosyncratic and unwelcoming of all. I have never forgotten the scent, although I have not consciously smelled it for decades, because one day you could no longer buy Blue Grass. Just like that. So she used up her leftovers, and that's it. The fact that there was a new edition of Blue Grass at some point passed her (and me too - back then I just wore perfumes without any deeper interest). Only here on Parfumo did I come across the name again and was able to remember the old scent colour, the sound of the scent, so familiarly that it was soon no longer a question: Should I encounter Blue Grass at any time at good conditions, then I will take it to myself - including the new version The top note is as characteristic as before: very cool, cloudy, with a matt texture. Brittle and distanced lavender dominates, with strong soapiness and something herbaceous. Lily? I might. Rosengeranium? I'm sure it is. If I should assign a face, then it would be that of Greta Garbo, shaded look, flawless marble features, latent sadness. The heart becomes spicier and softer in slow motion, the vetiver, with which I am not really good at, is perfectly arranged and is able to integrate and complement the spice with a hint of delicate grassy sweetness. A little powder, some soap. Gently. Melancholic. A sentimental jorney. I read flowery-green in the perfume description. No, that's not Blue Grass. Flowery-green, that sounds like light-hearted summeriness, like laughter of happy afternoons in nature or in the garden, like youthful freshness. Blue Grass is ageless, cool, soft grey and gently fogged. And unmistakably quiet. Lightyears CollectionBlue GrassElizabeth Arden(1936)Blue Grass marked Elizabeth Arden's successful entrance into perfume. In 1929 she had attempted to market six fragrances from French designer Babini, creator of a wedding dress for Katherine Hepburn, but the "Babini" name had no marketing power in the U.S. and the fragrances were dropped. In 1929 Arden launched four fragrances, all named after herself (La Joie d'Elizabeth, Le Rêve d'Elizabeth, Mon Amie Elizabeth, and L'Amour Elizabeth). These too failed to generate sales. It was her sister, Gladys, living and managing the Arden interests in Paris, who finally provided the breakthrough. A perfume by Fragonard struck Gladys as being perfect for her sister and she negotiated an exclusive arrangement for it. Soon after sampling the perfume, Elizabeth negotiated a licensing agreement with Fragonard for the perfume that she named "Blue Grass", this time honoring her horses and Kentucky stables rather than herself. Blue Grass was launched in 1936 by Elizabeth Arden under protests from her sales managers and advisers who feared that a horsey name would be the kiss of doom for the new fragrance. Instead Blue Grass was a wonderful triumph for Arden, helping her out of a cash crunch (brought on by her personal extravagances), and dominating the market for the next twenty five years. Blue Grass is still available at Elizabeth Arden sales counters today. Blue Grass was introduced with packaging by Nicholai Remisoff, a Russian set designer and illustrator who was frequently called upon by Arden for interior design work for her salons. Blue Grass is a floral scent with hints of lavender, orange flower, clove, and nutmeg. —— ## —— If you have any comments you would like to add about Blue Grass or Elizabeth Arden, please share them with us using the message sender below.
