The second museum of perfumery art in the world was opened in Moscow (the first is located in the capital of perfumery - the French city of Graas). Especially for the opening of the Museum, the most famous perfume creators, the best noses of the world's leading perfumery laboratory "Roberts" - Michel Almirac and Christophe Maubert arrived from France. Vice President of Roberts, Mr. Mobert said: “I am delighted with the tremendous creative work carried out to create this Museum. The aesthetic and cultural value of its exposition is enormous. Antonina Vitkovskaya is not just a professional, but also a fanatic of her craft - such a unique collection has become the property of the city and the whole of Russia. This Museum will become one of the adornments of Moscow, I am sure."

The exposition was created with the support of the Moscow government and the participation of the State Historical Museum. The main part of the exhibits really migrated from the storerooms of our oldest perfume factory "Novaya Zarya", which was founded in 1864 by the famous "French Muscovite" Genrikh Afanasyevich Brocard. Therefore, the stands lined with kumach are decorated with the products of the factory: sealed bottles of the Empress's Favorite Bouquet (now Krasnaya Moskva); tiny briquettes of soap with the inscription "For the fifth anniversary of the revolution!"; masterpieces of Soviet times "Stone Flower" and "Blue Casket". There is also a creative workshop of the perfumer with many retorts and fragrant herbs and a boudoir of a pre-revolutionary fashionista with all sorts of ladies' tricks.

Other halls of the Museum show, as in a historical retrospective, how the applied use of incense for magical, religious or medical purposes has gradually evolved into the modern art of fine perfumery. Here you can also see the most ancient balsamaria, in which an aromatic "dowry" of the departed, and Christian ritual vessels for incense and myrrh, and scented garters for stockings from the time of Louis the Fourteenth - everything that ever served gallant purposes, was kept in them fifteen hundred years ago.
