The goal of this website is to show the present owners of the companies how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back the perfume!


Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the perfume, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories), who knows, perhaps someone from the company might see it.

Kai Sang by Corday c1924

Kai Sang by Corday: launched in 1924. The name may mean "To Be Triumphant" in Chinese.




Fragrance Composition:


So what does it smell like? It is classified as a floral oriental fragrance for women.
  • Top notes: geranium, citrus accord (neroli, bergamot, lemon peel)
  • Middle notes: tuberose, carnation, gardenia, spices
  • Base notes: tobacco, sandalwood, amber, vanilla, patchouli, musk, civet



Bottles:

The deluxe parfum bottle is made up of opaque black glass w/enameled decoration on bottle, stopper in red, white and gold, designed by Maurice Depinoix and made by C. Depinoix et Fils. 

I believe this bottle could be had in two sizes:
  • Bottle measures 3" diameter x 1.5" tall.
  • Bottle measures 3.25" diameter x 2.75" tall.
















The non-deluxe bottle is made up of colorless molded glass in the Art Deco style.

A miniature perfume in a tapered cylindrical shape with white plastic screw cap was sold in the 1950s, and can be found in sets of assorted Corday perfumes.

 
 


Fate of the Fragrance:


Discontinued, date unknown. Still being sold in the 1950s.
