AÏ Loé: created in 1905 by Jacques Guerlain, a feminine parfum extrait.
I am not sure of what the name signifies or if it was just a made up name for the perfume. It could be the Tamil word for "loyal", which would be a nice name for a perfume, as "Ai" means "I", and I could be totally wrong.
So what does it smell like? It is classified as an aromatic floral oriental fragrance for women. It was described as very "musky".

Hello, I'm doing a bit of research on the origins of the name, Aï Loé. Would you mind telling me how you arrived at the Tamil word? I'm not having any luck finding it in any Tamil-English dictionary. Thank you so much for any help you can provide!
