Le Plume de Paris
Le plume de Paris recalls a wartime experience between a young soldier and his beloved who sent him a pack of cigarettes along with an encouraging note offering him comfort and courage.
This brand of cigarette was common amongst the French soldiers, with a strong tobacco scent, meant to remind soldiers of how strong the French military was at the time.
The blue package also resembled the colour of the French military uniform.
