This site is devoted to French perfumes and designers - whether or not their names have a foreign origin.

My credentials? I was born in Paris. I do not have a regional accent: what you’re hearing is French RP. I read the news on the BBC French Service in the late 1980s and recorded a bestselling BBC French Travel Pack cassette in 1990. I am a published and broadcast literary translator of over 45 years' standing... so words are my thang.
