— These Are Ceiling Prices — 



Even before France fell and while her finest perfumes were still available, we invited direct 
comparison with these, regardless of price. 
Today, imported perfumes are no more. Vaughan’s fine floral perfumes are still available, 
can still be compared with the finest, regardless of price. 
While unusual demand has exhausted stocks of some odors, we have been fortunate in 
replacing most of these from small lots of fine essential oils imported before war destroyed 
contact with Europe’s great producing centers. 
If you can no longer find your favorite imported odor, you will find the following blends of 
the same individual character as the best Parisian bouquets: Bouquet S, Bouquet X, Hawaiian 
Lei, Zanzibar, Calcutta, Victoria Regina and Song of the Heart. 
THE FOLLOWING ODORS ARE AVAILABLE IN EITHER 
COLOGNE OR PERFUME 
(Cologne is about one-eighth the strength 
of perfumes (about double the strength of ordi- 
nary toilet water). It is used wherever a per- 
fumed lotion is wanted—in the bath, on 
linens, or as a refreshing lotion. 
Appleblossom: Soft, yet fresh and clean. 
Bouquet S: A delicately feminine blend 
rich floral oils that in France and America is 
accepted as the leading type of odor in the 
better shops. 
Bouquet X: Another blend, slightly 
“drier’’ and less sweet. An exotic fragrance 
preferred by women accustomed to the better 
French perfumes. 
Carnation: Many acknowledge it as the 
best recreation of this beloved old favorite. 
Forest Breeze: A smoky, piney fragrance 
—the scent of a pine forest on an autumn day. 
Freesia: We are proud to have captured 
the elusive scent of this delicate flower. 
Gardenia: Not sweet like so many ‘Gar- 
denia” perfumes—a rich, intense odor.

Geranium: Like a crushed leaf of the green 
plant. 
Hawaiian Lei: 
tropical flowers. 
Heather: A rich “smoky” or “‘peaty”’ fra- 
grance that goes well with sport clothes. 
Hyacinth: The most accurate recreation of 
this flower we know. 
Lavender: Thewell-knownEnglish type, not 
sweet or ‘‘musky’’ like so many near-lavenders.

and leafy-—our largest selling odor. 
A lovely blend of exotic

THESE ARE CEILING PRICES 


Lily of the Valley: At last, a satisfactory 
reproduction of this elusive scent. 
Magnolia: The veritable fragrance of the 
Southern Magnolia—rich and lush. 
Nicotiana: Reproduced with astonishing 
fidelity. The well-known ‘‘Sweet-scented 
Tobacco.”’ 
Parma Violet: A favorite for generations 
with women of wealth and refinement. 
Red Rose: The Damask Rose type. 
Sweet Pea: The true fragrance of the origi- 
nal Spencer sweet pea. 
Violet: The English violet, softer than the 
Parma type. 
Wild Rose: Like the breeze through a 
Sweet Briar hedge in June. 
Zanzibar: Like a clipper ship laden with 
rare oriental woods and the spices of the 
Indies. 
“Personalized Perfumes 
Dram, $1.50; Ounce, $10.00 
We take pleasure in offering this 
group of highly individual, specially 
blended odors, which while not ex- 
actly matching the perfume of par- 
ticular flowers, do express the 
enchanting fragrance of gardens and 
woodlands. 
Calcutta: The oil from which this 
perfume was made was intended origi- 
nally for introduction at $75.00 an ounce 
by a famous French house. Escaping the 
fall of Paris, the perfumer brought this oil 
to America as his only remaining asset. 
We contracted for the entire stock. This 
is perhaps the last great perfume that will 
come from Paris until Germany falls. 
The fragrance is that of the rich, opu- 
lent bouquets for which the French are 
famous, yet it is so dry and woodsy that it 
is not cloying. Outstanding. 
Victoria Regina: Based on the 
formula for the consecrated oil used in 
anointing Queen Victoria at her corona- 
tion. Rich and fragrant. Not for the 
ingenue. 
Song of the Heart: A dry, woodsy 
fragrance with no trace of sweetness, yet 
definitely not heavy. A perfume of un- 
usual distinction.
