It&#8217;s not so well known that they actually started out as a man\u2019s accessory.  Popularised in 1900 as a term for a man\u2019s briefcase, and as far back as Ancient Egypt, hieroglyphics depict men carrying pouches around their waists. Should we consider that the term &#8216;holding the purse strings&#8217; may well have come from such an early era? As time has moved on the uses for bags have changed and gotten both bigger and smaller.  Find out more <em>In Bagged In A Mini Style<\/em> Here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The earliest handbag ever discovered was in Germany. It was thought to be from around 2500 B.C. and was strangely decorated with dog teeth. Thankfully it seemed fashion changed quite quickly as the next find was in Mosul, a 700-year-old clutch decorated in golf and silver of court scenes from the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Interestingly, handbags were not always functional but had signifiers of power, status, and beauty as well. In medieval times, for example, they had great symbolic weight representing marriage and betrothal and were often embroidered depicting the lovers&#8217; story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Purses\u00a0increased in size during eras when women&#8217;s fashions were puffy, wide, and full of fabric. Bags needed to be bigger so as not to be lost in folds and folds of fabric. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">But the first big change to effect bags came when in the 1670s when pockets were added for the first time to men&#8217;s clothing.  The bag finally became synonymous with women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">With the introduction of pockets to men\u2019s clothing in 1670, men discarded bags, and they began to be known purely as the domain of women\u2019s fashion. But this had benefits because as women drew towards emancipation bags meant the ability to carry their own money with them, whereas previously a man was responsible for carrying anything and everything of worth for a woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The advent of public transport also changed the way we carry items. As more and more people travelled across countries or seas, the bag carried by someone in their hand as opposed to trunks with their clothing and personal items became known as the &#8216;handbag&#8217; we talk of today. This may well be why so of the most desirable bags today come from luxury luggage makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The roaring twenties, the Second World War, to the swinging sixties all imprinted on the world of bags. Because of socio and economic factors as well as materials available, alongside trends in fashion, by the 1980&#8217;s men were back to actively carrying bags again. Now it was not just for practical use, but as a statement of fashion and an indicator of one&#8217;s taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Bags got smaller as what we carried around also got smaller, from mini phones that contain a whole computer and travel-sized perfumes <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a fan of a good mini bag, then what about the latest from Alexander McQueen The Jewelled Hobo Mini featuring the iconic McQueen Knuckle closure and skull motif (there is also a regular size) from the Spring\/Summer 2023 women\u2019s pre-collection).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alexander-mcqueen-hobo-bag-ss23.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"492\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alexander-mcqueen-hobo-bag-ss23.jpg?resize=580%2C492&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alexander-mcqueen-hobo-bag-ss23.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alexander-mcqueen-hobo-bag-ss23.jpg?resize=300%2C255&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alexander-mcqueen-hobo-bag-ss23.jpg?resize=768%2C652&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The body of the bag is inspired by the large facetted stone that sits on the Knuckle.

Another item that has a long history dates back to before the pyramids were formed.  However, the Romans had a big effect on how perfumes became more known, as they were big on discoveries and travelling across their own empires via the silk routes, always on the hunt for creativity and quality products to bring home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Although we may think of mini perfumes as something that are relativity new and in many ways travel sets are, but think back to times before professional crystal bottles and imagine small quantities of scented oils would have been carried from place to place. Expensive and rare only a small amount would be sent around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Electimuss London creates fragrances for lovers of fragrance and those who seek and appreciate the best in quality, creativity, and individuality. They have one of the best offerings in way of travel sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">With over 35 different combinations available, the brand brings utter luxury small enough to sit in a mini bag of the most fashionable choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">British brand Electimuss whose name means \u201cto choose the best\u201d in Latin uses this ethos at the heart of its brand. Exquisite oils and resins in with rare and precious notes blended with meticulous attention paid to every note and detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The brand inspiration came from  Ancient Rome and the Romans\u2019 obsession with perfume. Scent was part of every facet of their lives. Fountains were scented with rose water and perfume and were part of cleansing rituals, celebrations, feasts, seduction, and worship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The tall tales and epic stories echo through their empire and mythology; colourful tales and rituals provide inspiration for Electimuss fragrance stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Made in partnership with some of the great noses working in perfumery, now including the likes of  Julien Rasquinet, Christian Provenzano, John Stephens, Marco Genovese and Sofia Bardelli, each perfume starts at an impressive \u00a025% or 30% Pure Parfum and Extrait<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Meaning these are not light floaty &#8216;<em>gone in five<\/em>&#8216; minute&#8217;s types of elixir style scents but rich, deep,&nbsp;personal, intense, and indulgent fragrances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">After all, scent is a form of expression- an act of self-love, and of course individualism- a bottle of juice to raise our spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/perfume-100ml-edp.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"709\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/perfume-100ml-edp.png?resize=500%2C709&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/perfume-100ml-edp.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/perfume-100ml-edp.png?resize=212%2C300&amp;ssl=1 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The regular bottles of 100 ml are beautifully crafted bottles with heavy carved glass and metal carved caps and capes which echo Roman architecture and symbolism.

Its rich cognac notes form the base of this exquisite fragrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Amber Aquilaria opens with a bright, sparking bergamot that melts into a heart of roses \u2013 rich, velvet petals that mesmerise before falling into an opulent pillow of warm amber, sandalwood, Bourbon, vanilla and Aquilaria Oud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IMPERIUM 100ml<\/strong> By Sofia Bardelli<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">This sparkling aromatic citrus fragrance confidently opens with bergamot and coriander underpinned by a light woody base and is elegantly balanced by its light floral heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The blend is open bright and crisp with a slightly creamy floral heart and an intoxicating warm woody and slightly gourmand base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PERSEPHONE\u2019S PATCHOULI 100ml<\/strong> By Christian Provenzano<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">This delightful woody amber perfume enters with a fresh and elegant cardamom, lightly laced with plum and pomegranate before opening into a heart of Egyptian jasmine, a fresh, aromatic, clean patchouli and a tint of rose. The light woods of sandalwood and cedar combined with light musk and amber notes make this a light, sensuous and very versatile scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>VICI LEATHER 100ml<\/strong> by Julien Rasquinet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">VICI LEATHER is the latest perfume release from luxury niche fragrance house Electimuss London. Inspired by the victory cry of Julius Caesar, Vici Leather is the scent of success exuding luxury and easy confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">At the heart of this fragrance are two powerful notes of seduction: one feminine, one masculine combined perfectly to create a very unisex scent that is elegant and charismatic. Robust tuberose is entwined with addictive sweet leather to create a heart of masculine and feminine sensuality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Vici Leather is made even more intoxicating by the wormwood which has the woozy quality of Absinthe and an ambery base that is both powerful and relaxed. It is a confident fragrance with effortless elegance exuding success and sensuality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">With so many offerings from woods to smoke via florals green and even gormund scents a great way to further enjoy is via their collection of travel sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">For example, for favourites choose a set purely for the go&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Alkout&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">This is a rare and opulent statement perfume with an intoxicating blend of violet, oud, civet, leather and musk.
