“My first perfume was Blue Grass. I loved the bottle, with the flying turquoise horse with flowers in its mane. Then Mum gave me Diorissimo, which smelled like lily of the valley. Mum wore Chanel No. 5 and later, Guerlain‘s Shalimar, which was exotic and spicy, like burnt vanilla.”

Heya Megan In St Maxime,
I love Angelica Huston so much. What a presence. Almost every scene I’ve watched her in she steals, seemingly effortlessly.

My aunt bought me Blue Grass. I loved it too for that horse on the bottle.

I googled the bottle – gorgeous and the old horse advertisement is amazing too. They don’t make perfume ads like they used to …

I don´t know the perfume, Blue grass, but I adore that photo. Early Anjelica + early Jack – what an effortlessly glamourous duo!

Hi Sabine, I know gorgeous photo. I’m reading the first part of her memoirs at the moment focussing on her childhood but am keen to get to the second book where Jack will appear. What a duo.
