Blue Bottles, part 2
From the original 350+ blue bottle suggestions, this installment showcases 88 that I consider light blue. (I realize some may look different in person, but I went with the pictures I found.)
Challenge:
In a private message, name as many of the fragrances in the picture below as possible. For each bottle, score one point for naming the house and one point for naming the fragrance.
Click on the picture below to view it full size.
Process:
Deadline:
6:01p.m. (CST - US), Sunday, March 9 => 12:01a.m. GMT, March 10
Who Can Play:
Anyone who became a Basenotes member prior to March 2, 2008. Also, I would like to award the first-place prize to someone who has not won it previously.
If you're a newer member, don't be shy!
Judging:
If more than one person has the same number of correct answers, I'll choose a random winner from those finalists.
Prize:
For 1st place: a $50 (USD) gift certificate to one of the following
For 2nd place: a 125ml bottle of Cedre Bleu by Yves Rocher, courtesy of someone who wishes to remain anonymous.
For 3rd place: a 30ml bottle of Sun Moon Stars by Karl Lagerfeld

Stay tuned for Aqua/Teal bottles, as well as pink, purple, orange/yellow, green, amber/gold, and silver/grey/white. Some of you have asked about sponsoring a color or offering a color-themed prize for one of the contests. I'm not soliciting contributions, but if anyone feels inspired to offer something colorful for a future contest, you're more than welcome to! Someone suggested candles, soaps, candy, stationery, pens, teas, books, cds, or anything else that comes to mind.
I am very grateful to everyone who has contributed to these contests in any way. It's been a lot of fun so far!

- If your browser resizes the picture to fit your window, the bottles will not be as easy to see.
- Give as much detail as you can (gender, special editions, etc.).
- The only help I'm offering for now is this thread: http://community.basenotes.net/showthread.php?t=189840.
Process:
PM your list of answers, in the order that they appear in the picture. Please list them by row.
It would help to receive your list of answers all in one private message, but you may submit updates/corrections up until the deadline.
