I find a lot of unique, rare oddities.
Always have, since I was a kid.

I happened across a small bottle of original Shocking Absolute - presumably the concentrate sans alcohol. I don’t know exactly how old it is, but the paper label and wax seal leads me to believe that it is old. REAL OLD.

I’m making no claims, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this was from the 1930’s - considering it was launched in 1937, that makes this unopened bottle essentially an original formulation. Considering Robertet began making these pure essences for the fragrances they were manufacturing available around 1900 - it’s quite possible.

So what did I do ? Combined it with one of Rising Phoenix’s legendary Mysore Sandalwood distillations to create a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wear an ORIGINAL Joy formulation in exquisite PHOENIX Attar form. 🥰




Robertet was Established in 1850. Robertet counts itself among the oldest perfumeries in Grasse, but their creations are thoroughly modern as well, having created scents for Gucci, Bond No.9 and L’Oreal. Still, it is their high-quality raw materials which made them the stuff of legend among perfume cognoscenti.
