We figure out how flanker differs from Pillar Fragrance, and talk about the most iconic fragrances that remain relevant to this day. Let's start with the terminology. As a rule, there are at least two terms in the slang of all perfume houses, the meaning of which everyone needs to know. Pillar Fragrance - literally translated as a pillar fragrance, independent, completely new, it has nothing to do with existing collections. Brands are very sensitive to this scent: there is a whole legend behind it, consisting of an advertising campaign and famous people. As a rule, this fragrance is released separately from everyone else with the goal of further being a kind of basis on which entire collections of flankers will be based. Flanker (flanker) - a fragrance released on the basis of Pillar Fragrance, as, for example, a seasonal fragrance. Flankers are a continuation of the main perfume and are produced on its basis, most often with the same characteristics and design, they are usually included in the same advertising campaign. Let's remember the most legendary Pillar Fragrance today. 1. Chanel No. 5 It would be strange to start an article on great fragrances without remembering the legendary Chanel No. 5. The fragrance was created back in 1921. According to legend, Coco Chanel asked Ernest Bo to artificially create a scent that would smell like a woman. Beau experimented for a long time with various aldehydes - organic compounds with floral aromas. Of the ten options presented, Coco chose the fifth, hence the name Chanel No. 5. The composition of the fragrance does not repeat any particular flower, but rather is a composite of iris, violet, jasmine, rose and many others. For almost a hundred years, Catherine Deneuve, Audrey Tautou, Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman, and in the first years of release, Coco Chanel herself and Marilyn Monroe, who in one of the interviews answered the question of what you wear for the night answered: “Chanel No. five!" Now the muse of the fragrance is Marion Cotillard. Throughout the history of Chanel No. 5 there were 12 flakers, and the last of them is No.5 L'Eau Red Edition with hints of honey May rose, which lies at the heart of the fragrance, and is complemented by fresh citrus notes. Favorite scent of Marilyn Monroe 2. Opium, YSL The original version with spicy notes appeared in 1977. Then Jean Amique and Jean-Louis Suzak worked on the perfume. The dominant notes of the original version were clove, pepper, cinnamon, sandalwood and incense. The scandalous name, which is associated with a narcotic substance, at one time caused a great resonance among the public, which gave the fragrance great publicity and subsequently popularity. The design of the bottle was developed by Pierre Dinant, in his work he was inspired by inro - small Japanese storage boxes, this is another reference to Eastern culture. In 2009, the fragrance was slightly changed, adding citrus notes, bergamot, vanilla to it. Modern packaging still resembles a box, only now it consists of two parts, which are painted in different colors depending on the theme of the flankers.

It often featured iconic characters such as Audrey Hepburn's character in Breakfast at Tiffany's. In 2009, perfumer Thierry Wasser, inspired by the legendary black dress, created the eponymous fragrance for Guerlain, which went down in the history of perfumery as the iconic Pillar Fragrance. The original fragrance is based on notes of citrus, iris and vanilla. The perfume has 25 flankers. Each time, the designers of the bottle change the outline of a small black dress, draw new sleeves or fabric, add belts, etc. Natalia Vodianova's favorite fragrance 4. J'Adore, Dior The name of another iconic fragrance from the very launch of the perfume set it a special mood. Translated from the French "J'Adore" - "I adore", and indeed the fragrance from Dior has become adored by many women around the world. It was created by Frenchwoman Callis Becker in 1999. Floral-fruity aromas of pear, melon, jasmine, lily of the valley, musk and vanilla make the perfume unforgettable. The design of the bottle is made in the form of an amphora, giving the image of the aroma of antique mystery. For a long time, the face of the fragrance was the luxurious Charlize Theron, who for advertising campaigns was dressed to match the bottle - in gold rings wrapped around the actress's neck, like the famous jewelry of the Masai tribe. Favorite fragrance Charlize Theron 5. L'Interdit, Givenchy Completing our selection is the legendary fragrance from Givenchy, which Hubert de Givenchy created in 1954 especially for his muse Audrey Hepburn. According to legend, before releasing the fragrance, the fashion designer asked Audrey for permission, and she jokingly replied: "Interdit", which in French means "I forbid!" This is how the perfume got its legendary name. The original version of the fragrance consisted of notes of iris, violet, rose, narcissus and aldehydes. The current version of the fragrance is far from its predecessor, and, perhaps, only the design of the bottle has survived from the original perfume. Today the fragrance sounds like a floral bouquet with notes of orange blossom, jasmine and tuberose. Rooney Mara's favorite fragrance Anna Zainieva
