Famous perfumers, fashion designer film stars, and celebrities have all introduced perfumes presented in exquisite packaging designed to enchant and seduce the public.

Whether you are a long-term perfume bottle collector or novice, this book is sure to delight. But newcomers, be warned: once you start collecting, you won't be able to stop. . .
Customer Reviews:
Inadequate rangeJuly 31, 2008 Fiona J. Belbin(Melbourne Australia) This book was disappointing because it has an inadequate range and many famous perfumes are absent. It is frustating to read because the names of the perfumes are hidden in the text, not even in bold type and you have to hunt for them. No information about who designed the bottles in most cases.
Collectible Miniature Perfume BottlesMarch 10, 2002 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Although this is a cute little book with nice pictures, it is lacking in content. Too much history and not enough pictures of what is available today. It did not include any monetary values, not enough pictures of miniatures from the past 25 years, not very interesting ...actually it was nice to look at once, but otherwise a waste of money. I have about 40 of these little bottles and only about 8 were pictured in the book. Pay a little more and get a true reference book.
