Senchal by Charles of the Ritz c1981
Senchal by Charles of the Ritz: launched in 1981. The name is derived from a lake in India.

Charles of the Ritz Perfumes
In this guide I have listed the various perfume produced by Charles of the Ritz of New York City.
In 1916, Charles Jundt, a coiffeur took over the beauty salon at the Ritz Carlton in New York City. He founded his own cosmetics company in 1919. Prior to the war, he had achieved notable triumphs abroad, only serving members of the aristocracy and ultra-wealthy. The war practically ruined his salons. So, like many other artists, he came to the United States. He opened a salon in the Ritz-Carlton and his clientele rapidly increased. In 1926 began marketing his products with the name Charles of the Ritz. In 1927, he introduced perfumes.

Welcome!
This is not your average perfume blog. In each post, I present perfumes or companies as encyclopedic entries with as much facts and photos as I can add for easy reading and researching without all the extraneous fluff or puffery.
One of the goals of this website is to show the present owners of the various perfumes and cologne brands that are featured here how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!
Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table, did you like the bottle design), who knows, perhaps someone from the company brand might see it.
Please understand that this website is not affiliated with any of the perfume companies written about here, it is only a source of reference. I consider it a repository of vital information for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by. Updates to posts are conducted whenever I find new information to add or to correct any errors.
