Morning chaps. Apparently jude law uses a bottle of acqua di parma colonia in that terrible looking alfie remake. Theres a full list at the perfumeshrine.com along with a huge list of the favourite scents of celebrities.

This is a really fun topic.

In "The Pink Panther" (1964), David Niven has the following in the medicine cabinet of his hotel bathroom:

1. Acqua di Selva (At that time, by "Victor, Milano Italy.")

2. Napoleon Toilet Water by "Sir Robert"

and...

3. something by Yardley, but the specific name of the fragrance is not in the camera shot.

Dashing fellow, Mr. Niven.

In the recent Bond flick, of course Bond goes through the Eva Green character's bag and she has Santa Maria Novella's Melograno in it. A magnificent scent.

I could be wrong, but I think Mr. Bond is saying "tart's handkerchief."

Hahaha, you are right, Anchorman is THE movie! I was just flipping while eating supper and Wendy Wilson of Wilson Phillips was on Super Nanny. She was in her bathroom for a second and on her white counter top, was a very large, tall, clear bottle of a perfume. The juice was dark in color; lile a dark brown or amber color. I could not make it out because I have never seen it before.

Probably a bit esoteric for most, but interesting nevertheless (I hope) was the 'role' of Antaeus (Chanel) in a South African movie of 1992 "Promised Land" (Best Screenplay Award at the Tokyo International Film Festival in 2002). Antaeus symbolised for a country boy, yearning to break away from a stifling traditional setup, a more 'sophisticated' world. At the time I thought it rather quaint that they should have chosen Antaeus of all fragrances! But now I think it was probably a good choice for adding weight to the symbolism. How recognisable to the general public that dark bottle was I can't tell.

In nip tuck there is an episode where they talk about one doctor wearing oldspice and the other doctor wearing creed.

In an episode of "The Girls Next Door" Hugh Hefner is spraying on something that looks like either Yagatan or Safari, I couldn't quite tell.

As you can see, I let my girlfriend choose the chanels , I don't watch to much TV. That being said her shows aren't thaattt bad. Sometimes it is relaxing to have the mind numbed

The other day Oprah was profiling a celebrity designer from the states (cant remember her name) - and as cameras were rolling through her home, I spied a DIRTY BIG bottle of YSL "CHAMPAGNE" bath oil sitting on the counter!
I was astonished A: at its size, and B: at the name! "Champagne" was axed in 1993 I think, before being replaced with the name "Yvresse". This extraordinary bottle was still half full, and was a very rich yellow colour.

There is an episode of "The King of Queens" entirely about fragrance....made me laugh my rear end off.

Also, on an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond, Marie mentions something about spraying Robert's smelly house with her perfume and Ray says that would be a bad idea because it would smell like a "French whorehouse". I don't remember what she said her perfume was though....guess I'll have to go back and watch it.

What an interesting thread!

It does make sense that the scent in the Bond film was referred to as "a tart's handkerchief". If it was a "tot's" could it have been Jicky?

There is a scene in "Amelie" where she is applying perfume in her bathroom. I have always wondered which scent it is. (Very nice bottle though.)

I didn't catch the Creed in American Gangster, but I did notice the Old Spice. I thought it was very interesting that they would show that. Here's a man who is the King of Harlem, married to a South American beauty queen, yet still rocks the Old Spice. Pretty cool.

And of course I need to see the movie 'Perfume' a murder story, to paraphrase.

Okay, here is one I watched today in which the fragrance bottle wasn't actually seen. It's only referenced.

In "Hud" (1963), Patricia Neal accuses Paul Newman of having been out with the town hussy the night before. She knows it's true because his car still "reeks of Chanel No. 5."

Sadly, the hussy is only referenced as well.

I was watching a "King of Queens" episode (I think it's the one where Doug was mad at Carrie for spending too much money on designer clothes - the irony) and noticed a bottle of Creed Spring Flowers on the dresser in Carrie and Doug's bedroom. Kinda hard to miss that hot pink bottle with a bow on it!

From one of my favorite shows, The Office (US version, the last episode of the first season I think):

Ryan is about to throw away an item as he’s cleaning Michael’s convertible
Michael: Watch out.. whoa! That’s my Drakkar Noir!
Ryan: No, this says “Rite-Aid Night-Swipe."
Michael: No, it is a perfect smell-alike! I’m not paying for the label. Right here. Give it.
Ryan: It’s empty…
Michael: No it’s not. There’s some in the straw [proceeds to take out the straw and swab his neck with cologne]. There…now you may throw it out.

I used to watch the Bond movies as a child in the 80's on ABC and this is the first time I was exposed to "men wearing a fragrance." I never really knew what cologne was as a child; my father never applied his in front of me (not on purpose -- I just never saw him do it and didn't know he wore it). SO for the longest time I associated wearing cologne with gays, simply because I didn't have any other frame of reference.

"WOW, gays sure do wear a lot of cologne" -- or so I thought growing up (Mr. Wint was constantly applying his throughout the movie).

Being an active poster on this forum with a nice and quaint fragrance wardrobe to boot, I obviously have seen the error of my ways.

The power of the media -- how it can shape us naive little ones!

One of my all time favorite examples of a fragrance in film though is the movie "Switch." Ellen Barkin's character (a man reincarnated as a woman) is given an unnamed perfume to woo Lorraine Bracco's character (her ex- wore it). Loved the movie -- a guilty pleasure and quite underrated.

In National Treasure: Book of Secrets, there was a bottle of cologne (at least I presume it was cologne and I have no idea what the name it could be) on a table in Buckingham Palace. It's the scene where Nicolas Cage's character went to see the Queen's writing desk or something.

He picks up a bottle of something out in the open, douses his hands, splashes his neck and... licks his hands. I have no idea what that was about!

And I think there's a scene in Gone With the Wind where Scarlett takes a bottle of perfume from a desk and drinks a little bit of it to make her breath smell better.

The scene you're refering to in LIfe on Mars had Gene Hunt (the hero) confronting his archrival from another detective division in the hall outside his office. Hunt sneers, "New after shave? Blue Stratos?"

His rival answers, equally sneeringly, "No, Paco Rabanne."

The gag in the scene was that they were standing about 20 feet apart!


Incidentally, Life on Mars was one of the best British TV shows in years. It's about a cop from 2006 who goes into a coma and wakes up in 1973, with all the attendent culture clashes. I understand they're making an American version soon, though I don't know what references they'll use. Life on Mars was based on the film Get Carter and the TV series The Sweeney. Perhaps the US one will find our modern cop in Hawaii 5-0 or Kojak?

More interestingly, the unreformed 1973 sexist character Gene Hunt was way more popular with female viewers than the politically correct, sensitive 2006 cop... Go figure...

I watched The Hand The Rocks The Cradle (for the 20th time I'm sure) on HBO over the weekend. There's a scene where Rebecca De Mornay's character, Peyton, picks up a bottle of CD Poison off a vanity and stains Annabella Sciorra's dress with it. Immediately afterwards she goes downstairs and runs into Julianne Moore's character to which Moore remarks "Poison" to an obviously startled De Mornay. "...the perfume you're wearing" says Moore. "Oh..."

It's a good scene. I wonder if movie directors have to have permission to use a fragrance's name or image in a film or if it's just free license. I'm sure Coca-Cola or Pepsi would have a fit if someone used any of their products in a film and didn't credit them.

Caught parts of the 1980s movie "Working Girl" today. Sigourney Weaver wearing fancy lingerie laying in bed with a broken leg asks Melanie Griffith to hand her the Shalimar. She says of Harrison Ford's character, "Jack loves Shalimar."

Here's a link to images of Sigourney applying Shalimar. You can't see the bottle, but there is plenty else to appreciate!

One of my friends is a rabid Wes Anderson fan, and he persuaded me to see "The Darjeeling Ltd." The movie was okay, but what made me giggle was to see how Natalie Portman's character uses perfume to haunt her ex-lover. I particularly liked the scene where the three brothers are sitting around smelling the bottle, and one says, "That's her?" (As if they're looking at a picture. . . ) And her ex-lover goes, "That's her." As if her essence is contained in that bottle.

If anyone else saw this movie, did anyone else check on Basenotes to find out if Voltaire No. 6 really exists?

Oh! Aiona, I had a friend drag me off to see The Darjeeling Ltd too! Thoroughly enjoyed it; great movie.

The Voltaire No. 6 thing cracked me up as well. They eventually smash the bottle in the little train room as if to dispel her from haunting him. Then they all go for a smoke (I believe?) in the room. The cranky and much-hassled male member of the train staff (he seems to be the manager or somesuch) comes into the room and asks what that smell is (meaning the smell from them smoking) to which they immediately reply "Voltaire No. 6".

I'm afraid I never thought to look up Voltaire No. 6 on the directory! I saw the movie some time before I joined Basenotes, and completely forgot about that scene until it was mentioned!

I'm a new member so I'm still clueless about all of the names of fragrances you are mentioning. But you hit a cord as you are writing about TV and movies which I happen to be an expert at because the television is my evil mistress and my couch is in cahoots with her. SOOOOOOO. I watch a lot of old movies on AMC and just saw "The Women" with Joan Crawford. She played a perfume counter sales woman, out to steal all of the married men of course. They made up a name for one of the perfumes in question, the one that gave her affair away. And all of the products were in gorgeous crystal bottles as all the women sat at their vanities with an array of beautiful scents before them, talking while they "dab." I love that...it seems all of the women in those oldies sit at their tables in silk negligees with heavy cut glass bottles as they put a drop behind their ears to "get their man." LOVE IT. So here's a little trivia question for this post...what was the made-up name of the star perfume in that movie? (by the way, the department store in that movie was named "Blacks" Fifth Avenue....what a hoot).

In "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" Julianne Moore notices that Rebecca Demornay is wearing her friend's perfume Poison.

In "The Silence Of The Lambs" Hannibal Lecter takes a deep breath and guesses that Jodie Foster likes to wear Red Door, "but not today". He also refers to Old Spice as that "cologne with a ship on the bottle."

In "Scent Of A Woman" Al Pacino recognizes his sister-in-law is wearing Mitsouko. He Also guesses an attractive young lady is wearing Ogilvie Sisters Soap.

As many know, the vintage movie "The Women" with Joan Crawford has just been remade. Same title, with Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, and Eva Mendes as the "spritzer girl" at Saks 5th Ave. I've looked at the trailer -- an unabashed chick-flick, likely has some funny moments.

While I was browsing for TV show scenes about cologne, I found out that there was a scene in Season 1 of NBC-TV's "The Office" (the "Hot Girl" episode) that referred to designer impostor cologne. So I bought the HD version of it off of iTunes (yes, Apple and NBC have ended their spat) just for fun.

The cologne scene goes like this (fair use excerpt):
Quote:
Michael: "Watch out! Whoa! That's my Drakkar Noir!"
Ryan: "No. It says Rite Aid Night Swept."
Michael: "It is a perfect smell-alike. I'm not paying for the label. Right here. Give it."
Ryan: "It's empty."
Michael: "No it's not! There's some in the straw." (dabs it on)

Oddly enough, if you look very closely, you'll see that the Night Swept bottle is actually a bottle of Mugler Cologne, and they didn't hide the "TM" logo embedded into the glass (which is especially evident in the HD version if you pause it). One of the producers must like Mugler Cologne...

Any other cologne scenes on TV that you can think of?

Oh wow, never noticed that, I'll have to check it again sometime.

Maybe they needed a "prop" bottle with a removable atomizer so Michael Scott could dab it on, so someone suggested Mugler Cologne.

This past week I was watching NCIS reruns (now syndicated on the USA Network), and one of the characters was talking about the perfume in the air,
Quote:
Ziva: Haviar Christian Number Five. It’s a perfume. Big in France.
TONY: Maybe that’s what I’ll get Monica for her birthday.
ZIVA: It’s two thousand dollars an ounce, Tony.
GIBBS: Sounds steep.
TONY: Yeah, she’s not really a perfume kind of gal.

I couldn't find anything about it in the Basenotes directory (first thing I checked!), so I'm not sure if it is real or not.

I did find quotes from an even older episode of NCIS:
Quote:
Abby Sciuto: Perfume is expensive, Gibbs. I can't just hang out at the Macy's tester tray with my lab kit. They frown on that sort of behavior.
Gibbs: Buy what you need to, Abby, we'll deal with it later.
Abby Sciuto: Bold, Gibbs. Bold.

Quote:
Abby Sciuto: Perfume is the most powerful accessory a woman can wear.
Gibbs: Yeah, well, how much did all this power cost us?
Abby Sciuto: Around fifteen hundred.
Gibbs: Fifteen hundred dollars?
Abby Sciuto: Well, not including the tax. I stuck to the thirty most popular scents hoping we'd get lucky.
Gibbs: Ah, how fiscally responsible, Ab.

Quote:
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: I don't see Chanel No. 5.
Abby Sciuto: Does anyone wear that anymore?
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: My mother does.
Abby Sciuto: Really.
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: Ever since Marilyn Monroe confessed that Chanel No. 5 was all she wore to bed.
Abby Sciuto: So... does your mother...
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: Unfortunately, yes. Makes for terribly awkward slumber parties.

Quote:
Gibbs: Try and brand the cologne.
Abby Sciuto: Why, you want some?
Gibbs: Nope, don't use cologne. Women I date think the smell of sawdust is sexy. That's probably why I don't... date many women.

I was thinking about Gucci Pour Homme for the last one haha.

I think they might have made up a brand combining Clive Christian and Chanel No. 5? Either that or some super exclusive niche from France. Both are equally possibly.

From the second season of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the episode Angel One.

(Data finds an atomizer, and gives himself a face-full)

DATA: Interesting. An alcohol-based synthetic, artificially reproducing a floral scent.

TROI: It's called perfume, Data.

DATA: The purpose of which is?

TASHA: Certain cultures consider perfume an aphrodisiac.

DATA: I am unfamiliar with that term.

RIKER: An aphrodisiac is something used to stimulate or enhance sexual pleasure.

DATA: How does stimulation of the olfactory nerves affect the enjoyment of sex?

The scene ends there. Hilarious!
