  1. The advertising and the bottle’s aesthetic enchant you instantly. Bourjois truly mastered perfume marketing. The concept was to capture the beauty of a romantic date in a forest with a lovely lake. Of course, we’re talking about the 1950s, when men wore suits with perfectly stiffened haircuts, and women in beautiful patterned dresses with delicate updos. I own the cologne shown in the central image, though mine is a light brown colour. I also tried the Eau de Toilette. Regarding the essence, I expected an intense floral, but instead I found a soft chypre. If you’re looking for a comparison, Miss Dior sits much closer to floral; Ramage is earthier and ambered, with leather and woods that are very sweetly musky, giving it that tranquil, romantic side from the advertisements. Bourjois manipulated notes of vetiver, sandalwood, patchouli and moss to create a sweet, musky projection. At first, the aldehydes, bergamot and jasmine play against the rest, although I detect more jasmine, reminiscent of lily of the valley. An interesting creation by Bourjois; Ramage is incredibly rich.
