Coty (L"Origan)

Introduced in 1905, L'Origan ("marjoram")was the first of Coty's truly great perfumes.

The originality of L’Origan indeed resides in its combination of traditional essences such as bergamot, orange, neroli and ylang ylang with new floral bases and synthetics such as methyl ionone, heliotropin, vanillin, coumarin, civet, vetiveryl acetate, and nitro musks.
