- The perfume timeline labels the Queen of Hungary’s water date as traditional and notes that the invention and queen’s identity remain uncertain.
Field notes
The perfume timeline moves from the Mesopotamian perfumer Tapputi to modern fragrance milestones, with links to related articles on several entries. Its treatment is not uniformly definitive: the Queen of Hungary’s water entry explicitly qualifies the traditional date and notes uncertainty about the invention and the queen’s identity. The homepage also gathers industry headlines from named external publications and offers language choices beyond French.
