This installment showcases 90 bottles in various shades & accents of silver & grey. This silvern set didn't want to fit together very smoothly.
Challenge:
For the image below, each contestant is challenged to name a minimum of one fragrance and a maximum of five fragrances, by responding to this thread. The more bottles you name, the more "tickets" you'll have in the prize lottery. Thanks to Grant and other generous Basenoters, we have several prizes again for this contest.
Click on the image below to view it full-size (1280x960):
When counting the position of bottles, SKIP the big one in the middle.
(Name that one separately.)
Process:
Deadline:
6:01p.m. (CDT - US), Saturday, February 7, 2009 => 12:01a.m. GMT, February 9.
Who Can Play:
Anyone who became a Basenotes member prior to February 1, 2009. Previous winners are also invited to participate.
Judging:
The only criterion is that your answers be complete -- list both the house & fragrance for each bottle you name, and includes any special edition details. All prize winners will be chosen at random. The more bottles you name, the more "tickets" you'll have in the prize lottery. (Maximum: 5)
Prizes!

Other winners will receive one of the following silver gifts (all generously provided by BlackCat, Asha, Grant, & Anonymous!

When counting the position of bottles, SKIP the big one in the middle.
(Name that one separately.)- 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.).
Process:
- Submit your answers by posting to this thread. Indicate the Row # and bottle position. You may post multiple responses to this thread until you have named 5 bottles. (Do not send answers via PM.)
- You must name the house and the fragrance for your answer to count. Details that distinguish one bottle from others in the same line should be included. (Example: CK One Summer 2005 is a different bottle than CK One Summer 2007. "CK One Summer" would be an incomplete answer.) If you don't see your answer on the master list, I'm looking for more detail.
- If some bottles remain unnamed toward the end, I'll open up the contest to allow more guesses per person.
- I will keep updating the master list as time allows, to reflect the bottles that have been named, but a review of the previous posts may help before you submit your answers.
- PLEASE post additional new answers in a new reply. If you only edit your first post, I may not catch the update.
- Have fun!
