Eight houses
Perfumery
Santa Maria Novella, 1221. Frapin, 1270. Trudon, 1643.
Perfume is the one category where we buy on the house rather than the season. A composition does not go out of date, so Frapin's 1270 can sit beside Nasomatto, which began in Amsterdam in 2007, without either looking odd.
What the eight have in common is that none is a fashion house lending its name to a licence. Each one exists to make perfume and nothing else.
