What do you think Napoleon meant when he wrote to his girl “home in 3 days, don’t wash” ?
It doesn’t give a good reputation to the French girls though

[quote]This is a rather interesting question. I’ve done a good deal of research, looking at pdf files of letters between Napoleon and Josephine, and I found no such quote in them. However, I also came upon two articles that seem to confirm this quote directly, one being quoted from a book that I do not possess, Lettres d’amour à Joséphine, and apparently on page 155 there is, “Ne te lave pas, j'accours et dans huit jours je suis là” - Do not wash yourself, I am coming and in eight days I will be here. Historian Andrew Roberts also confirms this, however it is three days instead of eight. To read more : Historian obsessed with Napoleon spills the beans on Bonaparte's sex
It is difficult to ascertain such a citation. I am inclined to believe he did write it. If one looks at the letters Napoleon sent to Josephine in the Italian Campaign of 1796–7, they are filled with very amorous and sexual content. It is probable that he wrote this to Josephine, being the passionate young man that he was during that time.[/quote]

@ozgirl512 It’s interesting to read about the sexuality of historical figures. I don’t know if you know about the famous French littérature author Apollinaire, he was quite into dark stuffs. It’s interesting

@SW-User no tbh...I don't think over ever heard of him...I think there's always been a section of society that for a lack of a better description can be called Avant garde .... Often their practise filter down to the rest of us years later... Iconoclasts I guess

He was definitely into her natural perfume. Those pheromones must have packed some punch.

Guess he liked his women with a little flavor to them...

Guess he needed some catch up after the war @AlienZipper

@SW-User Maybe he was used to the smell of sweat in the battlefield....

@SW-User Napoleon liked it raw as ODB would've said.
