More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US.
From Stella McCartney, another trio of "Print Editions" of the original Stella Eau de Parfum (you can see the 2011 trio here): "Taken from the runway, each 30ml collector bottle is dressed in a geometric print from the Stella McCartney 2012 summer collection." £38 each at Selfridges in the UK.
From Annick Goutal, the 2012 limited editions of Petite Cherie, featuring "an organza ribbon coupled with a charming golden medal created by renowned jeweler Arthus Bertrand." In 100 ml Eau de Parfum in the butterfly bottle (above left, €140) or in the 100 ml Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum spray (above right, €93 or €114 respectively) at Annick Goutal.
From Floris, a special edition of their Royal Arms reissue: "To celebrate The Queen's Diamond Jubilee, Floris has brought to light the original 'Royal Arms' recipe and created an adaptation of this special perfume, which has then been hand poured into just six antique crystal bottles...The crystal bottle, dating back to the early 1900s is a classic and rare dressing table piece, each one of very few remaining in the Floris collection. The bottle is dressed simply with a 50 point Fairtrade white diamond, hand set by a London jeweller. Suspended on a delicate chain, the 18 carat solid gold decoration is finished with a hallmarked charm engraved 'Royal Arms'." £15,000 at Floris.
From Alvarez Gomez, a special edition of their classic Agua de Colonia Concentrada to celebrate the fragrance's 100th anniversary. In 300 ml, €23 at Alvarez Gomez.
The Stella bottles are ugly. I love Stella but I think I will keep it in the original bottle. Not fond of the Goutals either.
Oh, I like them — especially the blue one on the right! Not loving anything else in today’s list though.
You mean you don’t want a £15,000 bottle of perfume?
I’m shocked.
Since tone doesn’t come across well on the Internet I guess I should clarify that I’m joking, and that a £15,000 bottle of perfume is a ludicrous thing.
I kind of like the Stella bottles, too. Not my thing, but nice. Is 30 mL small enough to fit into a purse? Because those should be purse sprays.
I figured you were kidding!
Not kidding, that is NOT a fantabulous necklace for £15,000.
EXACTLY my thought! For $25000 dollars, I’d expect something a little more bling-worthy!
Oops. Redundant dollars!
Well, that’s good:), one for Robin’s Christmas list:). They just remind me of a cross between a cigarette lighter and an egg faberge. I think they would be ok as cigarette lighters.
Don’t need the fragrance so it’s not going on my list, but I do like it 🙂
I clicked to comment that I like the Stella bottles – LOL to each their own! I like them a lot more than last year’s flower-print ones, these new ones work with the geometric shape.
I like them better than last year too.
I also really like this year’s Stella “print” bottles…. the designs look very fun!
I really like ’em too!
After that Floris offering, the modesty of the Alvarez Gomez special edition was most refreshing.
Oh, my! These Stella’s print editions are gorgeous!
Ooh, the Goutal bottles are pretty! I wish I liked Mon Cherie more, then just perhaps I’d be ok with buying the butterfly bottle( because I’m on a perfume budget, not because I think it’s overpriced!).
Here’s something to add to your next limited edition post! Unfortunately for me, I am going to NEED this. Hahaha! : )

Oh thank you, missed that one entirely!
