What sophisticated noses will not come up with.
The fantasy of perfumers knows no boundaries, and sometimes it does not stop only at the creation of fragrances. Experimenting, they come up with not only unusual compositions, but also special bottles, looking at which you do not always guess that you have a perfume in front of you.
Fresh Couture Eau De Toilette, Moschino
Jeremy Scott, creative director of Moschino, is not in vain known as a rebel in the fashion world. However, it was he who managed to bring the brand out of oblivion and even turn it into a cultural phenomenon. That only one of the last shows in the style of Picasso paintings is worth. And even with such a seemingly insignificant thing as a bottle of perfume, Scott played pretty well. Looks more like a cleaning agent, doesn’t it?
Salvador Dali Fragrance Series
The Spanish artist believed that the sense of smell “best conveys the feeling of immortality.” Therefore, it is not surprising that he decided to immortalize his name with the help of perfume. In an interview, Jean-Pierre Gryvory, the owner of the perfume house, admitted that he simply wrote a letter to the artist and received a positive response within 15 days. Salvador Dali perfumes were the only ones created during Dali’s lifetime. A little later, Grivoli released a whole series of fragrances. But perfumery history remembered the very first one the most. And it is packed in a bottle, created according to the plot of Dali’s painting “The appearance of the face of Aphrodite of Knidos against the background of a landscape.”

Dream For Him, Majda Bekkali
“Art should be all-encompassing and please all human senses,” says the founder of the niche perfumery line, Maja Bekkali. Her perfume bottles are miniature sculptures. For example, the sculptor Claude Justamond took part in the creation of the packaging for Songe Pour Lui (“A Dream for Him”), and the bottles for the Fusion Sacree (“Sacred Union”) series repeat the work of Tsaddé Fusion Sacrée, made in bronze by Isabelle Gendot.
Good Girl, Carolina Herrera
A truly feminine fragrance has received appropriate vestments. Carolina Herera has put the essence of femininity in a bottle-shoe with a daring and sharp stiletto heel. As many owners of this fragrance assure, it really reveals only on the skin of its wearer. Therefore, before buying, be sure to apply it, for example, on the crook of your elbow, in order to understand whether it is your perfume or not.
Shalimar Eau de Parfum, Guerlain
This scent contains a true love story. When creating it, perfumers were inspired by the legend of Padishah Jahan, the ruler of the Great Mughals, and his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Jahan was madly in love with his wife even after her death. It was in her honor that he built the huge Taj Mahal, recognized as one and seven wonders of the world. The perfume bottle repeats the outlines of the fountains of Indian palaces, and the cap resembles a fan – one of the favorite accessories of oriental girls.
Classic, Jean Paul Gaultier
We can say that the French fashion designer Jean-Paul Gaultier gave the corset a second life. It was he who popularized this wardrobe item in the 90s. And, by the way, Madonna’s scandalous corset with tapered cups is also his handiwork. Therefore, it is not surprising that for his perfume he chose a bottle in the shape of a female torso, dressed in a corset that favorably shows all the curves of the body.
Body III, KKW Beauty
Gautier’s exhilarating silhouette seems to have inspired Kim Kardashian as well. For her perfume, she chose almost the same bottle, but with a spectacular twist. It was created according to certain model standards, and Kim herself became the model. To create it, the star even had to make a cast of her own body, and the perfume is enclosed in a smaller copy.
Emanuel Ungaro toilet water
The bottle of this fragrance looks more like a spray paint for a street artist, and for a reason. It was the street artist who participated in its creation. Chanoir, as his name is, describes his work as soft color combinations that create a good mood. And, looking at this colorful bottle, you will definitely want to smile.
