Pin Fleuri by Babani c1937

In 1937, the time period when "Pin Fleuri" by Babani was launched, was characterized by a blend of elegance and artistic flair in fashion and perfumery. This era, nestled between the Art Deco extravagance of the 1920s and the onset of World War II in the late 1930s, saw a continuation of refined tastes and a celebration of feminine beauty through both visual and olfactory expressions.

The name "Pin Fleuri" translates to "Flowered Pine" in English, deriving from French. The name derives from an elegant floral pattern of scattered blossoms over a white or light colored colored background. Babani likely chose this name to evoke a sense of natural beauty and elegance. In the context of perfumery, "Pin Fleuri" suggests a fragrance that captures the essence of scattered blossoms over a white or light-colored background, mirroring the delicate yet vibrant nature of floral patterns popular in fashion during that time.

"Pin Fleuri" would be a fitting name for a perfume because it immediately conveys imagery of a lush, floral landscape. It suggests a perfume that is fresh, floral, and possibly with green notes reminiscent of pine or other foliage. The name itself would appeal to women who appreciated sophisticated, floral fragrances that complemented their attire and lifestyle.
