People used perfumes before the beginning of our era. And no wonder, because many people firmly believe that love is found with the help of pheromones. And who wants to stay alone until the end of life? And during the Middle Ages, spirits were used to hide the stench caused by the dislike of Lords and ladies for bathing. Now fragrances are created with the aim of raising the status. And, of course, because everyone subconsciously wants to smell good. But what exactly did celebrities say about perfumes?
Historical reference
The very first perfume was invented before our era in Ancient Egypt. However, more recently, in the course of archaeological research, the most ancient spirits on Earth were discovered. In Persia and India, the manufacture of various artificial flavors was also widespread. Later, this knowledge migrated to European countries. The word "perfumery" comes from the Latin expression "per fumum". In Russian, this translates as "through the smoke."
