About

Jacques Bercia is a perfumer credited, together with Michel Hy, on Nina Ricci Fille d'Eve, which launched in the early 1950s (reviewers give 1951 or 1952), and on Yves Saint Laurent Y from 1964. Fille d'Eve is described as a quiet floral chypre with a gentle fruitiness, with bergamot and lemon on top, jasmine, rose, peach and plum at the heart, and oakmoss, amber, musk and costus in the base. Y is described as a peach and iris laden chypre. No citable source was found for his birth, training, employer or nationality, so this profile is limited to these credits.
