‘As with other perfumers of the 1920s like Coty, he designed these certain perfumes to be worn by women according to the color of their hair, Amour Amour for blondes, Que Sais Je? for brunettes and Adieu Sagesse was recommended for redheaded women. These were to be noted in the vintage advertisements of the period.’ – Jean Patou Perfumes (Blogger)
