I have recently acquired a vintage 1950's/60's bottle of this and am comparing to the 90's Dana version which I also own - both are actually quite similar so I wouldn't say the later version isn't as good by any means, it is definitely lighter and a tad sweeter. The vintage edition definitely has a bit more leather smokey incense, the honey is prominent and less beeswaxy than the newer formulation I also get a hint of shalimar from this vintage bottle. Just lovely.

no one seems to be mentioning the strong leather vibe of the modern version.

i haven't smelled the vintage, but to me it's a rich, ambery leather fragrance which would also work on a man.

I wore this fragrance for probably a decade when I was younger. It had very lovely white florals & was such a unique fragrance. A classic!

This is a yummy smelling perfume!

Can't speak to the Dana version, but the original was very romantic. Yes, I agree, I would also have called it an oriental.

My Mother wore this.

One of the perfumes that defines the oriental family. Warm, sweet, and thick. Redolent of heavy white flowers, spices, and just the right amount of vanilla. The best powdery drydown of any perfume. There is nothing synthetic or cheap in Toujours Moi, it smells completely natural. A full-bodied, sensual fragrance experience. Todays stinky orientals should use this as their inspiration.


Max Factor produced this in the late 80's/early 90's. Apparently Factor used the original formula because the two smell the same. This review is for the Corday and Factor versions.

I want to purchase a bottle of the orig Corday Toujour Moi that's been worn by my family probably since it was created in 1924. I can most likely only afford the cologne.

Tried this (e-bay purchase) after buying the new Toujours Moi by Dana. The Corday version, even vintage, is soooo much better than the Dana. It's a spicy, powdery oriental-floral and lasts well on me.

Sweet and spicy oriental with very powdery florals. Similar to, but less intense and softer than Miller Harris Oriental Flowers, and I swear it has a whiff of wedding cake. Although it has an animal base, its only a little bit naughty. The parfum/perfume strength is being reviewed.
