London, The Middle-East and Paris

 

In the 1960s, her daughter started to step up Albert's footsteps. Her approach as a trained “nose”: fragrances that capture the moment like on a postcard motif. She goes with her husband to the place where life pulsates: London, Notting Hill. Established Cognac 66 becomes the first perfume from her own heart instantly. The Family Affairs continues.... Based on the scent of old pubs; she was particularly fond of one bar where the whole interior was made of wood that was a must at the time and with it a mix of cognac and wood became a scent.


Mrs. Krigler was keen to experiment and was always looking for something new. A trip through India leads to the Nepalese border, where she was fascinated by the lush cedar forests - an impression they made! Cozy Cedarwood 72 was and still is one unique, woody creation capturing that voyage.

Then she was invited to Jordan, to create a fragrance for a member of Royal Family - Oud for Highness 75. This was the first oud scent made by a western perfumer.

This sets new standards, also by having a strong one alongside, Oud Saffron notes integrated in it. An entire collection will follow 30 years later even after the West discovers Oud for itself.

Freigeist or rather free spirited Mrs. Krigler eventually goes to Paris to create more unique fragrances. This is how Emeraude Noire 77 was created after a ring, and not just any ring, disappeared. It was the family heirloom from the Imperial Russian era; stolen in the Paris Metro. The ring was mysteriously called the black emerald, and it was never found. What remains is this warm, dark, and very Parisian scent.

In the 1980s she concentrated exclusively on bespoke perfumes and focused the business on a few main locations. A consolidation phase in which the Perfume House Krigler reflected on its values.
