A fragrance of absolute green hell, the most beautiful forest fragrance, divine; living with TSAR is an art, a fragrance of power.

Period advertisement (1989) : Some men are like diamonds—highly sought after.

It was the second men's fragrance launched by VAN CLEEF & ARPELS PARFUMS.

A major jewelry house, also renowned for its wonderful, uniquely high-quality fragrances.

The luxury fragrances of VAN CLEEF & ARPELS PARFUMS were created with the company OMNIUM DE LA PARFUMERIE DE LUXE, 62 Faubourg de Saint Honorè – Paris 8^th arrondissement, established on 1/1/1976 and operating at the same address until 1991, with Christophe Melard as managing director.

Luxurious box in shades of the mineral malachite, with a black frame bearing TSAR and the seal emblem; in the second frame, de Van Cleef &Arpels Paris. Everything is in gold, as are the remaining details along the bottom.

Please note : de Van Cleef & Arpels Paris indicates the original edition.

Glass bottle, very heavy, opaque, in the color of the mineral malachite, a true work of art, square with clean edges. The details on the upper part are arranged in four lines in gold; at the bottom are the seal emblem and the remaining details, arranged in two lines in the same color.

The square cap is heavy and glass; its black color enhances the beauty of the whole, with a gold-colored trim along the bottom.

From 1976 to 1995, VAN CLEEF & ARPELS PARFUMS belonged to the pharmaceutical giant SANOFI BEAUTE. 

The fragrance was distributed by Safrep, a subsidiary of pharmaceutical giant SANOFI BEAUTE (Van Cleef & Arpels, Yves Saint Laurent, Oscar de la Renta, Nina Ricci, and Stendhal), part of the Societe Nationale Elf Aquitaine Group.

The product, packaged and manufactured by the French company OMNIUM DE LA PARFUMERIE DE LUXE, was imported into Greece by H.A. PAPAELLINAS S.A. (29–31 Neofronos Street, Athens), and was sold exclusively by us as authorized distributors.
