CLASSIC, ROCHER, 8e JOUR, MINI PERFUME BOTTLE, c.1993
Creative Yves Rocher, 8e Jour mini perfume bottle. This classic mini is interesting for its different triangular shape, its colorful amber frosted-glass bottle with a satiny feel, its contrasting royal-blue stopper, and its unique French name.

This eye-catching mini also comes with its box.

PAGNACCOS, CYRUS GREEN STARLIGHT, MINI PERFUME BOTTLE
The maker, Pagnaccos and the fragrance, Cyrus Green Starlight (for men), are very elusive and I could find very little about them. The bottle, however, is interesting. The clear glass square bottle serves as a pedestal for the light green plastic stopper modeled as a Greek male torso sculpture. Very attractive bottle, despite its mysterious origins. The bottle originally held a perfume that was pale green color that matched the color of the stopper, since evaporated. Discontinued and difficult to find. A mystery bottle for your mini collection.

VINTAGE, LENTHERIC, TWEED, MINI PERFUME BOTTLE, c.1960s
Lentheric created Tweed in France around 1933. It became popular in the United States in the 1940s to the early 1960s. Curiously, they sponsored a $60,000 advertising promotion contest in 1957, and the winning entry provided their unconventional slogan, "Blame it on Tweed," which was apparently very successful, and ran for several years in the 1960s. This bottle is likely from that era. Clear square bottle with black enameled letters on the front. Gold plastic cap with large wooden overcap. Bottom of the bottle is embossed, "Lentheric."

LUXOR, LUXOR BOUQUET, MINI PERFUME BOTTLE, c.1930s
Offering another charming vintage mini sample perfume bottle. This one is by Luxor (Luxor Toilet Requisites, Armour and Company, Chicago, Illinois) The exotic-sounding name Luxor, suggests the mysteries of ancient Egypt, but was, in fact, a brand created by the Chicago-based Armour & Company as a device to sell the by-products of its Chicago animal processing plant providing the fats and tallow needed to manufacture cosmetics products. The Luxor trademark, was first used in 1910. By the early 1920s Armour's Department of Soap and Toilet Requisites had been replaced by a company known as Luxor Ltd - Perfumers. The sample mini in this listing is a tall, slender clear glass bottle with a front label, and a cork stopper. The label has a bouquet of posies and "Luxor Bouquet/Luxor Ltd/USA." These vintage mini sample perfume bottles make an interesting group display. See additional photos for a grouping of several vintage sample bottles from the early 1900s, 20s and 30s currently listed in this mini section.
Size: 2 1/4" high.

VERY RARE, SCHIAPARELLI, SI, MINI, PERFUME BOTTLE, c.1957
Schiaparelli, Si (Yes!), very rare sample bottle, a tiny replica of the full-sized perfume bottle. The clear glass bottle is realistically molded as a Chianti wine bottle wrapped in its straw basket. Interestingly, the straw baskets served two purposes. The blown glass bottles had rounded bottoms because they were simpler to manufacture. The woven baskets gave the bottles a flat, stabilized, base so that they stood upright and were not easily tipped over. The other purpose for the straw covering was for protection against breakage in shipping. This little bottle has a brass threaded cap and an orange twisty around its neck (a later addition). Gold foil label on the bottom of the bottle. Retains almost all of its perfume. This is a rare opportunity to add this unique replica mini to your collection.

VINTAGE, PARK & TILFORD, FAOEN NO 3, MINI PERFUME BOTTLE, c.1926
Park & Tilford was a New York company with a clever slogan: "Park & Tilford offers exquisite perfumes that make you a queen for every occasion, without costing a king's ransom." (No truth in advertising back then!) The fragrance, Faoen 3 was trademarked in 1926. As a new collector, the first time I saw a Park & Tilford perfume bottle for sale, I was immediately transported back to the musty, dusty, wood-floor, hometown "Five and Dime" store of my early childhood in Medford, Massachusetts. It is there in the 1940s that I first saw P&T perfume bottles for sale. This humble little mini perfume bottle holds great nostalgia for me, and perhaps, for you, too! The clear glass pyramid-shaped bottle has a large black bakelite cap that conforms to the pyramid shape of the bottle. A gold foil label with 1930s graphics covers the front of the bottle.

However, some collectors prefer to display the bottle standing on its stopper, giving it the appearance of a brandy snifter, and refer to it as "the brandy snifter bottle." Embossed in the glass on the recessed bottom is, "Revillon Paris France." The fragrance was launched in 1938. Stopper has a ground neck with no plastic sleeve, which dates this bottle to before 1963.
