Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 yep corky, Marie Antoinette had perfume put on her sheep cuz she didn't like their smell~she really knew how to rough it she had a whole complete village built just for her when she got tired of the crowds that lived in the Palace,there were 2000 living at the Palace including anyone that was anyone, servants,cooks, maids in waiting to all the ladies you name it they lived there,speaking of shriveling your nose, with 2000 people all liveing there they say the smell from the boudior 'pots' of all those people was overwhelming~that's also why the French invented perfume I bet...

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2001 Report Share Posted September 22, 2001 summer home and it was nice and peaceful there. The palace itself was way to crowded with tourists to really appreciate all the splendor though. The gardens were beautiful.
