In-Depth Summary:
Jean-Claude Ellena created First for Van Cleef & Arpels in 1976, the first perfume launched by a major jewelry house. Bergamot, blackcurrant and mandarin lead into jasmine, rose, narcissus, ylang-ylang and clove, followed by sandalwood, vanilla, musk, tonka and amber. The team approached both the scent and its presentation with the polish of fine jewelry.
This offering is the circa-1980s 1 fl. oz First Parfum bottle shown, containing the original formulation.
