For women, perfumes are an extremely important fashion accessory that is indispensable for just about any occasion. Fragrantica, the online encyclopedia of perfumes, selects the best perfumes of the year every year. This time, however, they also made a ranking of the best women's perfumes of all time.
The history of perfume
The Egyptians were responsible for the creation of perfume. Fragrances were used in religious ceremonies, celebrations, funeral preparations. The wealthy elite of Egyptian society, both men and women, adorned themselves with aromas to mark their status. The Persians, however, adopted the use of perfume as a mark of political status. The Greeks and Romans began to treat perfume as an art form and also to mass and consistently produce it. In the 1190s, perfume began to be commercially produced in Paris, and from there it blossomed into a mass industry.
