Richard Alexander Hudnut (June 2, 1855 – October 30, 1928) was an American businessman recognized as the first American to achieve international success in cosmetics manufacturing. The company once maintained separate US and European headquarters on Fifth Avenue in New York City and on the Rue de la Paix in Paris, respectively. After graduating from Princeton University, Richard Hudnut toured France and returned with the idea of introducing French-style perfumes and cosmetics to American women. In 1880 he registered his name as a trademark in both France and the United States. Hudnut began by transforming the family drugstore into an elegant showroom. The makeover was such that the shop then became a tourist attraction, and Hudnut's business flourished. Hudnut's products became so widely known that he closed the retail store and focused on marketing his product lines through wholesale distributors. One of the keys to Hudnut's success was that he sold his less expensive fragrances "on approval". After the consumer paid with postage stamps or a money order, Hudnut shipped the perfume. If the customer wasn't satisfied, Hudnut refunded the money. Having made his fortune, Hudnut sold the business in 1916 and retired to France. The Richard Hudnut Corporation was acquired in 1916 by William R. Warner & Company, which later became Warner-Hudnut in 1950, then Warner-Lambert in 1955. In 2000, Warner-Lambert was purchased by Pfizer Corporation. We are a Top Rated Plus eBay seller and stand behind every item we sell.
