This is my fragrance. It was first introduced in 1925, The first bottle was a long ribbed bottle, this one came a couple decades later, so while the bottle is vintage, not quite an antique yet. Still a very nice find.

This is one of my faves, too. I know there's been a long history to this scent, and the company. The link I posted below has more info than I ever knew about it. Found it quite interesting.

Thanks for commenting!

This came to me a well displayed, but well cared for bottle. It's not right here in front of me at the moment, I'll do a better inspection and get back with you if I find anything significant. From the photos you can see the label has wear.

Nice! I've handled it as such. I've thought about cleaning it but decided to let it go with it's patina. It was to be a centerpiece for my miniature bottle collection I no longer have interest in.

Thanks fir commenting!
