Monsieur Worth by Worth c1969

Monsieur Worth by Worth: launched in 1969.



Fragrance Composition:


So what does it smell like? It is classified as an aromatic woody fougere fragrance for men. It begins with a spiky top note gives way to the freshness of vetiver and the soothing blends of bergamot and sandalwood, finally mellowing to the darker, more mysterious notes of musk and oakmoss.
  • Top notes are neroli, lavender, bergamot, basil, petitgrain, rosemary and eucalyptus
  • Middle notes are pepper, verbena, geranium, fern, Bourbon vetiver and Virginia cedar
  • Base notes are sandalwood, oakmoss, tonka bean, musk, amber and vanilla

Bottles: 

The line included Eau de Toilette, a concentrated eau de Cologne Triple, After Shave, and Deodorant. Monsieur Worth was originally housed in clear glass bottles with black plastic caps. By 1976, a series of silvery capped atomizer sprays for Aftershave, Eau de Toilette and Deodorant were introduced to the line.


Fate of the Fragrance:


It appears that Monsieur Worth might have been discontinued around 1981-1982 as I cannot find any other advertisements that date afterwards. It was certainly discontinued prior to 1996.
