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 editions from Nina Ricci, Serge Lutens and Jean Patou, plus a new version of Baccarat Rouge 540 at Maison Francis Kurkdjian.
Nina Ricci's Nina in the Nina Pop 10th Birthday Collector's Edition, in a "psychedelic polka dot pattern" by French artist Coco. Due to launch in February, in 50 ml Eau de Toilette. (via diarydirectory)
More special editions from Serge Lutens: engraved Harlequin bottles of the brand's L'incendiaire. Available at the brand boutique in Paris. (via Serge Lutens at Facebook)
From Jean Patou, a new limited edition of Joy: "From the archives of Jean Patou a celebration of the iconic fragrance JOY. The fragrance is contained in a replica glass bottle from 1932 reaffirming the heritage of this vintage brand. Reputed as the world’s most luxurious fragrance, Joy captures the essence of 28 dozen May roses and 10,600 jasmine flowers. First released in 1930, Jean Patou created JOY as a celebration of life, presenting the breath-taking elixir in a flaçon designed by Louis Sue." £150 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum, at Harrods in the UK.
Baccarat's limited edition fragrance, Rouge 540, will join the regular collection at Maison Francis Kurkdjian in new packaging in January, in 70 ml Eau de Parfum. (via soblacktie)
The Nina Pop bottle is too cute. <3
It really is…probably my favorite they’ve done with Nina so far.
I just wanted to say that the Joy in the black bottle is available as EDP in a gift set and as parfum at Neiman Marcus, just in case anyone in the U.S. is interested.
I like the Nina bottle, too.
Thanks, Robin, for keeping us up to date on all these things.
Yes — the Parfum will be in the Xmas posts!
Yes, I’ve seen it in Australia too. I was nonplussed for a moment, thinking my department store had started selling vintage!
What’s up with all the dot-themed decor? Even Starbucks has a Dot Collection. Tbat said, the Nina Ricci bottle is adorable!
Yeah, don’t know. It must be a thing at the moment.
Just repeating what everyone else said, I love the Nina Pop bottle. It definitely would add a little color and a cool vibe to my boudoir tray. LOL!
That particular picture looks like an octopus sitting on a Twister mat.
Do they still make Twister?!
Someone at Jean Patou missed an opportunity for a special edition tying into the new movie.
As for all the dots, I assume that some global “trend” consultants advised all the style industries that this would be the year for dots, just as the Pannteone firm sets a global color trend for each seasons.
