The name *Fleurs de Rocaille* borrows from *rocaille*, the shell-and-rockwork ornament of the eighteenth-century rococo, so the advertisement ties a modern scent to an older French decorative tradition. Caron, the Paris perfume house founded in 1904, built its reputation on fragrances sold with a strong sense of style, and its advertising of the early twentieth century often leaned on elegance and the image of the cultivated woman. Look at how the illustration and lettering frame the bottle and flowers, since advertisements of this period were as much about mood and luxury as about the product itself.
