This perfume is the winner of award FiFi Award Hall Of Fame 2005. This famous perfume was made by Andre Fraysse for Lavine's home in 1927. The name was chosen by the daughter of the perfumer. Since she had been involved in music she chose the name “Arpege”, i.e. music term arpeggio. The original 1927 formula incredibly corresponded to its musical term - the notes of perfume play their theme alternately. In 1993, the perfume was reconstructed and that was a successful work. The composition was mostly well preserved, but still, that was the second great perfume.
