time for summer!

I swapped out my cold-weather perfumes for my warm-weather fragrances and snapped a picture, because I like how they look on my dresser. I didn't include the glass bowl of tiny bottles and sample sizes and so on - these are just the full size bottles.






Ordinarily I don't really have a preference for one type of bottle look over another, though I do love a pretty perfume bottle. I'm just glad that designers generally try to make them look nice. I do love Caswell Massey's Elixir of Love, a deep cobalt bottle with a gold cap. It sort of has a 50s vibe to me.

Do you have any favorite bottle designs?


I also scored a .25 ounce bottle of Nest Dahlias and Vines at Goodwill yesterday for $1.99, so that was cool. :) It's pretty, a clean gentle floral, nothing extraordinary, but for under two bucks I'm not complaining.

I wish I had that many full bottles of perfume.

I think Guerlain has the most beautiful bottles, but I don't like their perfume. LOL

I like Tom Ford's bottles and Chanel bottles.

Awesome perfume score!

Oh! The only Guerlain I've ever liked is Jardins de Bagatelles. Everything else I've tried has been...weird on me. Like, smells like ground-up baby aspirins and old nickels weird. Disappointing. But yes, lovely bottles!

Oh, I like the Tom Ford Orchid Soleil bottle especially. The color.

I like Serge Lutens bottles as well. Santa Maria Novella bottles are pretty too, but I've never actually tried anything by them.

Thanks! I was pleased. :D

Ooooh, I hadn't seen that Tom Ford bottle.

My Tom Ford bottle looks like this.

Pretty! Looks like it would fit nicely in the hand. I don't like awkward-in-the-hand bottles much.
