There's nothing more that
evokes passion & romance than a beautiful perfume & perhaps this is one
of the reasons why perfume bottles are one
of the most collected items the world over. Whether it be commercial
bottles, flacons or atomisers, it seems we just can't get enough of
them! Of course the cream of the crop as far as perfume bottles go are
those designed by names such as Lalique & Baccarat. Today, these are
out of the price range of many collectors. but there are still many
beautiful examples, such as Czechoslovakian bottles which can still be found at a
more affordable price and remember.... many a fine collection has grown
from modest beginnings!

Fact...Of
our five senses, smell is the only one, physically & emotionally that is wired
directly to our brains
if
my message was in a bottle
it
would be a bottle on your shelf
and
every atom of it’s perfume you sprayed
would
contain the essence of myself
