Burning papers & scented parchment - Home fragrances

Burning papers are one of the most ancient and refined arts of home perfumery. In the 19th century, long before the invention of scented candles and reed diffusers, it was by burning fine strips of scented blotting paper that one perfumed salons, boudoirs and bedchambers. The perfumed smoke, light and ephemeral, purified the air whilst adorning it with a delicate trail. The Maison Oriza L. Legrand has perpetuated this tradition since 1886, the year it registered this design worldwide.

Each booklet contains 60 strips of scented blotting paper. They can be burned in fine slivers to instantly perfume a room, slipped into drawers and wardrobes to lastingly scent linen, tucked into a handbag to perfume its contents, or used as writing paper for scented letters and poems penned by candlelight.
