Introduced in 1905, L'Origan ("marjoram")was the first of Coty's truly great perfumes. The fragrance swept Paris and helped consolidate Coty's reputation as a perfumer-promoter.

In L'Origan Coty demonstrated that it was possible to create a fine but affordable perfume that would appeal both to the upper classes and to the less affluent but very large middle class.
