I may have posted my reply to your query in the wrong place. Please check the thread for a detailed comparison of Marechale Original to 90. My advice – don’t by the 90!

You’re referring to Howard’s Violet candies and gum. They are manufactured by the C. Howard Company from Bohemia, New York. Their motto is “A delicious confection – fragrance that refreshes”.

Marechale Original is my signature scent and there is nothing that compares to it. Marechale 90 is not the same and I think that you will have spent quite a lot and not get any of the same qualities as in the original. I have checked the Anglia fragrance line and, although some are very nice, none resembles Marechale Original.

Oh and yes, I do have one of the Baccarat bottles!

I asked my mom and she thinks they were just called violets.

Today I got my sample of this amazing scent! It's so wonderful to smell something different. I'm reminded of those violet candies packaged like mints in purple foil. They were sold at the drugstore counter when I was a kid (for me it was the K&B in New Orleans). Does anyone remember the name?

Weird but elegant is a good description

I love this, weird, but elegant.

It made me dig out an old CDG shirt from the eighties, plain white dress shirt with long streamers like shoelaces from the shoulders.
