History · An index of releases
The Originals Index
Fragrance releases from 1533 to 2024, earliest first: the year, the name, the brand, and the notes as listed.
Compiled from public fragrance databases; years checked against independent records where noted (confirmed, as listed, disputed); notes as listed there; families derived by the house from the notes.
The index
96,726 entries by brand and name; 67,610 with a year of release, from 1533 to 2024; 71,724 with their notes. The list runs earliest first; entries without a year come last, under “Year not listed”. Brand names are the makers’ own; Radler Parfums is not affiliated with any of them. More of perfume’s past: History & Masters. The scene above is the organ desk, an in-house render.
Every year before 1990, and later ones where a record reached them, was checked against independent records (a museum collection, Wikidata, house records). confirmed another record gives the same year (3,063). as listed no record found; the year is the list’s own (4,681). disputed the records differ; each year is shown with the kind of record that gives it (459). The three counts cover the 8,203 entries that were checked; the other 59,407 dated entries (1990 and later, where no record reached them) carry the list’s year unchecked. A year that could not be true (a house dated before it existed, or a founding year or catalog number read as a release) is not listed: the entry stands undated until its real year is on record. The families are the house’s reading of each entry’s listed notes, not the list’s own labels.
Entries 1–100 of 96,726, earliest first.
