The Original - 150 ml

On returning from his vacation, Albert received a letter from John in the U.S. thanking him for the kind gesture and informing him of the success his perfume was having among his friends. He requested Albert to send him eight samples:

"...and if your production allows, another one for Bob."

Without fully understanding the request, Albert decided to send a box with sufficient samples to offset the transport costs. His perfectionism extended not only to the fragrance but everything surrounding it. He didn’t fill the order until Philippe found some beautiful glass bottles in a Parisian pharmacy that Albert considered suitable for his fragrance. Finally, he ordered several boxes decorated with the same pattern as the shirt that J.F.K. was wearing when they met, and then labeled the bottles and boxes with John’s amusing request:

“EIGHT & BOB”

Albert was surprised a few months later when he began receiving letters from America with requests from various Hollywood directors, producers, and actors such as Cary Grant and James Stewart. Everyone wanted the “EIGHT & BOB” fragrance they had apparently discovered through John’s father, who had maintained relationships with well-known stars because of his previous business ventures in the movie industry. Unfortunately, the success of his fragrance would not spread much further.
