In this guide I have listed the various perfumes presented by Lancome from 1935-2003.
Lancome was established in 1935 at 29 Faubourg-Saint-Honore in Paris, by Armand Petitjean, the previous managing director of Coty. The first five perfumes were introduced at the 1935 Brussels exhibition. The perfume firm was awarded a prize and became a major company. Georges Delhomme, who worked for Coty from 1931-1935, became the artistic director for Lancome from 1935-1965 and was the creator for almost all of Lancome's presentations during the 1950s.
