Description
Ma Griffe by Carven is a green chypre floral fragrance for women. It was launched in 1946!
The gurus Turin and Sanchez give it 3 stars, and describe it as having a Miss Moneypenny spinsterish loveliness that works perfectly if you are nothing of the sort.

Outstanding capture Andrea. God bless.
I absolutely love the subtle warm tones in this version, but both are very professional looking. I really do think you could easily get a full time job as a perfume ad photographer. :)
Fantastic shot! :)
A very nice assembly and light.
Brings back memories! The first bottle I had was given by the then love of my life decades ago! and I've always loved it...
Very interesting scent. love the description
LOL, with that title I thought you were going to show a photo of a plump middle aged woman in her Kansas farmhouse kitchen, cooking dinner for her eleven children. That said, another one of your professionally done magazine ads for an exotic and seductive perfume, A.
LOL! Interesting description; doesn't move me to want to try it, though! Still, it's a lovely colour!
GREAT WORK!
Like you much warmer version here. You do the best stills...!
My claw? It has a lovely green color. I prefer this version. The flickr image looks like they are lined up for inspection.
everything about this is just gorgeous, but the light---wow!!!!!
I love the reflection
Wonderful capture of these bottles and boxes, you have great skill in this area, upmarket stores should be contacting you with fat cheques to have their products shot by you for their store sites and catalogues.. rather than those overly glossy studio shots we all see in uniform format in most adverts for such things. Nice work.
Nice shot.
Never heard of this one!!
What a great advertising shot this would make, there is something about gold and green colours that just work!!!!
What a refreshingly spring-timey feeling this has! It makes me feel like I'm missing out, not wearing perfume. :)
The flickr version is a family shot, where everyone's lined up straight, for the camera. Very nicely done, and formal. This is a more artistic shot, with two big angles, and one tiny one (the little bottle who seems a tad out of step with everyone else), and with the beautiful dual lighting. You must have good backdrops and good lamps to get these backgrounds and to get your complex lighting. The golden-peach tones work beautifully with all that green, and your background light as well as the front reflections give this an air of real class. It's beautiful, Andrea, and another fine entry into this continually wonderful series of bottle captures. I looooove this series...
I like the vibrant colors in the RR version!
Thanks for the memories Andrea, I also have vague memories (of the scent) of a perfume by Carven, called 'Vert et Blanc' given to me by two gentlemen, whom I had met on the Italian ship 'Castel Felice' - when migrating to Australia in 1960 - We were meandering through the Bazaar streets of Cairo, Egypt - and doing some window shopping (without the windows) as one does as a tourist, when we were followed in close pursuit by a whole gang of locals, dressed in white Kaftans with either a tea towel or a fez on their heads ... anyhow, it's a rather long story - but all ended well, happy to report - but the perfume was never forgotten, after all that was my first one, I had ever received. Yes, and I was still a spinster at that stage ;)) BB
