Dana - perfume house

Dana Perfumes

About Dana
Dana is a perfume house founded in 1921 by Javier Serra in Barcelona, Spain. Serra previously worked as the director of Myrurgia, Spain's Monegal family perfumery, before opening his our perfume house. He chose the feminine name of "Dana" for it's short length, appealing sound in all languages, and ease of attribution to beauty and fragrance. The House of Dana was established in 1932, and that same year he released TABU the first Dana perfume. As the original oriental, Tabu would serve as the inspiration for the famous fragrances of Tuvara by Tuvache (1948) and Estee Lauder Youth Dew (1951). With the new success the House of Dana relocated to Paris, and released nearly 50 fragrances through the 1950s including Canoe, 20 Carats, Emir, Plantine Voodoo, and Ambush. In 1940, when Paris was occupied by Germany, the House of Dana moved to the U.S. where it remains today. The company is now a Lynn Tilton Company.
