Titanic Fragrance Brings Doomed Voyage Into 4D

Seeing the gorgeous Kate Winslet and Leo in Titanic 3D isn't the only way to pay homage to the 100th anniversary of the legendary luxury ocean liner's tragic maiden voyage.

How about a spritz of a scent based on oils discovered in the wreckage of the ship? Legacy 1912 Titanic, currently on pre-order at QVC, is based upon the perfume oils developed by British perfume maker Adolphe Saalfeld, who was aboard Titanic to New York in hopes of delveloping a new line of scents. Saalfeld survived the sinking, but his samples were lost, according to QVC.


Recently found 2-1/2 miles beneath the ocean's surface, many of Saalfeld's samples still contained their oils.

Legacy 1912 Titanic features delicate lemon and nerolis alongside blushing rose and amber. A testament to the enduring nature of history, the scent also honors the legacy of Saalfeld, forced to abandon his precious case of perfume behind when he fled the ship.

Preorders for Legacy 1912 Titanic Fragrance 2.5 oz Eau de Parum ($69) are being taken at QVC.com.
