Original perfume bottles that reflect the essence of the fragrance

When the first spirits appeared, no one knows. Even in ancient times, people hid unpleasant smells of smelling plants and flowers. In the tombs of the pharaohs were found aromatic oils and balms, which were used for cosmetic and perfume purposes.

Secrets of making perfume passed down from generation to generation, and a small jar of fragrant means cost a fortune. In the Middle Ages, liquid spirits appeared with the use of alcohol and essential oils. It is clear that the perfumes manufactured were to be stored in special vessels, so that expensive liquid would not spoil.

Glass vessels for aromas

It was at this time (the Middle Ages) that the first perfume bottles appeared, and in the nineteenth century a real boom began on beautiful vessels, in which was a maddening potion. Glass became the main material for storing fragrances - it did not allow the precious spirits to evaporate.

«Clothes» perfume

When choosing a fragrance, it is extremely important to pay attention to his "clothes", since perfume bottles reflect the whole essence of perfume. At the beginning of the 20th century, designer glass vessels appeared, representing real works of art. Until now, they are hunted by collectors, and at special auctions they go for unrealistic money.

Vials from Lalique

Thanks to modern technology, all containers are manufactured on an industrial scale, but some of them are created manually in very small quantities, which affects their price.

Speaking about the original bottles for perfume, you can not ignore the company that founded in Paris, the production of glass products René Lalique. He received orders from perfume factories and based on his own design developments created amazing beauty masterpieces.

Rene was called a real artist, who puts sensual fragrances in an individual form. After fruitful cooperation with the brand Coty, exclusive crystal bottles were born, in which the former jeweler worked his creative ideas.

Continuation of traditions

And to this day the heirs of the great dynasty continue the work of the great master. The fragrances of Lalique de Lalique are produced in unique numbered bottles, the shape of which never repeats and eloquently narrates about the perfumed spirits. Over all the magnificence of this perfumery "conjure" about a dozen people. Maitre Lalique has always been sure that a luxurious perfume is worthy of no less precious frame.

Crystal products

Some glass factories produce crystal products for the storage of perfume liquid. For example, the famous French company St. Louis creates an incredible beauty of transparent hand-made vessels with ground covers. And for special convenience, an exquisite perfume bottle with a sprayer was made, taking into account the latest technologies for engraving and gold ornamentation.

The favorite aroma is poured into the crystal bottle, and the sprayer economically gives out the perfume. Such a highly sealed bottle will not allow the leakage of valuable liquid.

Is color important?

Perfume bottles are distinguished by a varied palette. But most often fragrances for women are enclosed in light or colorful glass bottles of the most incredible shapes. For a long time it was believed that darker shades are more common for the design of man's perfume, but in recent years, manufacturers of perfume products are moving away from this statement.

Jewelry company Bvlgari, engaged in the production of fragrances, dressed its creation under the name Jasmin Noir in a glossy black "clothes", diluted with gold.

And in 2008, the selective brand Creed released perfumes in black bottles, directly calling them Love In Black. Perfumery brands admitted that the creation of a precious essence of their inspired dark-haired Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis.

"The glass prison that conceals the fragrance," as Shakespeare expressed poetically, is no less important than the perfume itself. And many buyers when choosing a perfume make their choice on the basis of the appearance of the bottle, which stores notes of a beautiful bouquet.
