About This Site

Welcome to the Parfums Weil Perfume Blog – A Chronicle of Elegance and Memory

This blog is dedicated to the timeless legacy of Parfums Weil, a storied French perfume house with roots in luxury and originality. Founded in the 1920s by the Weil brothers—Albert, André, and Marcel—the company began by creating refined perfumes to complement their line of fine furs. What started as a niche concept soon blossomed into a full-fledged fragrance house admired around the world. Today, the Weil name still evokes memories of sophisticated, often animalic scents, wrapped in the allure of Art Deco presentation and Parisian glamour.

Here, we celebrate that history. This site was created as a reference and resource for collectors, perfume lovers, historians, and anyone who has ever worn a Weil fragrance and fallen in love with it. Each entry is presented in an encyclopedic style, featuring detailed facts, scent descriptions, and photographs that help identify and date bottles across the decades. From the earliest releases like Zibeline, Chinchilla Royal, and Hermine, to later favorites such as Antilope, Secret de Venus, Bambou, and beyond, this blog follows the journey of Weil perfumes from their origins to their modern incarnations.

Please note: this site is not affiliated with Parfums Weil or its current parent company in any way. It is an independent labor of love, created by a perfume historian with a deep respect for the brand’s contributions to olfactory culture. One of the goals of this site is to show just how many people still remember and cherish these fragrances. I hope that, by gathering enough interest and sharing our collective memories, the present-day owners of Parfums Weil might be inspired to bring back some of these long-discontinued treasures.

I encourage you to leave a comment below any entry—share your personal stories, describe the scent you remember, tell us the year you wore it, who gave it to you, or what occasion it marked in your life. These memories are part of the perfume’s legacy, and they matter. And who knows? Perhaps someone from the company will read your words and realize the true impact these fragrances have had.

Thank you for visiting—and for keeping the memory of Parfums Weil alive.
