Promesa (Promise) was launched in 1917, making it one of the earliest Myrurgia fragrances. This was a year when much of Europe was at war, and the Bolsheviks were beginning to consolidate their power in Russia. In Spain, Myrurgia was at the beginning of its rise to power, a rise that would make it, for a while, Spain's greatest fragrance manufacturer.
The history of Myrurgia began in 1916 when Esteve Monegal i Prat, a Catalan sculptor and intellectual, transformed his father's Ramón Monegal modest drugstore into a business influenced by the major artistic movements of the time: Noucentisme, oriental subtleties, Art Deco, and other avant-garde elements. Thus, during the 1920s and 1930s, Myrurgia was the figurehead of design and advertising, with a large group of collaborators, including graphic designer Eduard Jener. He is responsible for the firm's most iconic creations, such as the artistic presentations of Polvos Morisca, Orgia, Maja, Flor de Blasón, Suspiros de Granada, and Clavel de España, among others. Another important cartoonist associated with Myrurgia was Alfred Opisso Cardona. Myrurgia's relationship with the arts also extended to architecture, which is why, in 1926, Antoni Puig Gairal drew up plans for the firm's elegant headquarters in Barcelona. |
