Description

Perfume, Cologne, and Scent Bottles is a comprehensive guide to the history and beauty of perfume bottles. With over 1,000 photographs and extensive research, Jacquelyne North has created a unique collection of illustrations showcasing perfume bottles from ancient times to modern designs. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of perfume, cologne, scent, atomizer, and fan-stopper bottles from various regions such as Northern Europe, America, Bohemia, and Japan. It also features over 270 patent illustrations of commercial bottles, as well as a directory of perfume makers and scents, and a price guide. This book is particularly notable for its in-depth coverage of Lalique and Czechoslovakian-made bottles, as well as its discussion of materials such as glass, porcelain, and silver used in the creation of scent containers. With chapters on dime-store novelty bottles and tips on care and presentation, Perfume, Cologne, and Scent Bottles is a valuable resource for collectors and anyone interested in the history of perfume and fragrance.
