Bunch o’ limited edition collector bottles (and some other stuff) 2014, part 10

Posted by Robin on 28 May 2014 10 Comments

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. Today's post includes collector bottles from Miller Harris and Jean Paul Gaultier, new packaging from Annick Goutal (and a new concentration for Matin d'Orage), and new concentrations from Neela Vermeire Créations and Kenzo.

Miller Harris Symphony of Colours

From Miller Harris, the Symphony of Colours collection, with Citron Citron, Le Petit Grain and Tangerine Vert in bottles decorated by Paris-based artist Cyril Destrade. At Selfridges in the UK, £65 each for 50 ml. (found via Basenotes at Facebook)

 

Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male and Le Beau Male Capitaine Collector

From Jean Paul Gaultier, Le Male and Le Beau Male in the Capitaine Collector editions. In 75 ml Eau de Toilette, due to launch in July. (via cosmoty.de)

 

Annick Goutal Matin d'Orage Eau de Parfum

From Annick Goutal, a new Eau de Parfum concentration of Matin d'Orage: "Five years after the launch of Un Matin d'Orage Eau de Toilette, Camille Goutal and Isabelle Doyen are offering a more sensual variation, a rewriting of this first creation. A sensual white flower harboring notes of desire…A bouquet of magnolia, both delicate and diffuse. A touch of tuberose, milky and creamy, rolling over her skin. A vanilla background, deliciously intense, enriched with guaiac wood, slightly smoky, and myrrh with its woody undertones." Available in 50 and 100 ml at Annick Goutal.

You might also notice that the milky-white bottle from the original Eau de Toilette version is now clear: this is the new packaging for the line, and all the bottles (with the exception of the collector editions) are now clear glass.

 

Neela Vermeire Créations Mohur Extrait

From Neela Vermeire Créations, Mohur in a limited edition 50 ml Extrait. (via Neela Vermeire at Facebook)

 

Kenzo Flower in the Air EdT

From Kenzo, a new Eau de Toilette concentration of 2013's Flower in the Air. In 30 and 50 ml Eau de Toilette. (via kenzoparfums)

    So, a Matin d’Orage in EdP. I liked the original but it was so faint… hmm. Didn’t love it, though, probably not worth jumping on.

    But that pink-and-orange background behind the Miller Harrises!!! I so want that as a scarf.

      It’s a shame they did not do more with that watercolor…it’s on the outer boxes, but the bottles themselves are dull in comparison.

      about the MH bottles, that is. I really have never liked those JPG bottles..I find them tacky. If I wanted a bottle like that, it’s too much like the head of a Ken doll got popped off and the legs…and don’t like picking up a botte and touching a ‘package’ that sticks way out..just me though.

        I like the JPG bottles, although these renditions are not my absolute favorites. But totally agree they’re tacky!
