Bunch o’ limited edition collector bottles 2018, part 6

Posted by Robin on 25 July 2018 13 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 special edition bottles from Lalique, Estee Lauder, Yves Saint Laurent and Sisley.

From Lalique, the 2019 crystal limited edition of Lalique de Lalique, Naïade. "Draped in a veil that reveals her voluptuous figure, adorned with a delicate motif of scales… Is she a woman, a goddess, a mermaid? Reinvented by the house of Lalique, this contemporary embodiment of the eternal feminine, sensuous yet stately, breathes life into crystal. An exceptionally fine-detailed female statuette, the spectacular stopper of the 2019 Limited Edition is a true feat of glassmaking technique." 100 ml Parfum, $1800. (You can find a list of past editions here.)

 

New solid compacts from Estee Lauder, designed by Monica Rich Kosann. At left, Modern Muse Gingerbread Cottage. At right, Beautiful Wonderland Tea Party. $275 each at Bergdorf Goodman.

 

And two more. At left, Pleasures Off To The Ball. At right, Modern Muse All Grown Up. Also $275 each at Bergdorf Goodman.

 

From Yves Saint Laurent, the Love edition of Mon Paris. $94 for 50 ml at Yves Saint Laurent.

 

From Sisley, the 2018 edition of Eau de Soir. "Striking, mysterious and feline, Sisley's limited edition Eau Du Soir draws inspiration from a velvet leopard-print rug, the gold and black spotted bottle revealing the luminous fragrance through a subtle interplay of transparent reflections, truly expressing the scent's elegance and sensuality." £202.50 at Harrods.

        They tend to be very well made.

        I have this one:

        So so adorable. I do prefer a lower pricetag and liquid perfume form though…

      If Wonderland Tea Party had Bronze Goddess or Sensuous, I’d be tempted.

          In all truth, it’s not even what you’re paying for so what’s the difference.

    I really wish I liked Mon Paris. I think the bottles are so cute.

      I think I liked the original Paris bottle better, but it’s a good update.

    Does it even matter what’s inside the Lalique bottle?

      Nope, not a bit.
