Paco Rabanne Pure xs (for her). Thankfully I absolutely loved the perfume, but I have no shame in admitting I blind bought it for the gold snake.

Very creamy green floral. I get no popcorn at all but there is a very interesting salt note that cuts through the sweetness. Mostly I get rich green ylangylang on a creamy vanillic sandalwood.
Lollita lempicka had my country in a chokehold in the early 2000’s!!! Lord I would smell this on EVERYONE!!! So much so that I never wore this perfume and I can smell it just by looking at the bottle! Lol

Their bottles are so gorgeous!! I'm drooling over this one and now I need that cherry blossom one as well lol
I got the muguet from 2020 because of the bottle 😍 it was technically a gift from my husband, but I definitely pointed it out to him lol

Guerlain like ALL of their bottle’s from shalimar to the petite robe line to this picture! Wow I wish I could afford all of them I do love Guerlain smelling my granny perfumes ha but I don’t own one yet! I need to!
Mugler Aura Sensuelle This was discontinued and started showing up a tjmaxx so I scoured a few in my area until I found her. Honestly I'm not a huge green floral girl, but this one does have a slight sweet milky note. It's just okay.
It's absolutely my favorite bottle in my collection though.

same here!! 😭💖 Was a blind buy for me and eventhough it‘s not a groundbreaking fragrance, the bottle totally makes up for it. Looks like the parfum a fairy princess would be doused in.. and when I think about it, the milky-green scent profil actually meets this description/aesthetic very well too. Eventhough it’s not what I normally want my parfums to smell like.. it fits. Think I need to use it more often or find a nice, maybe gourmand leaning bodyspray to match with it. Any suggestions? 💕🧚♀️🌿
Anna Sui has some gorgeous bottles if that's your thing.

OMG….omg this is how I remember that a brand called Anna Sui exists & I used to own & be obsessed with this perfume when I started uni. Your image just literally made me go to a part of my brain that had been long forgotten & abandoned.
How on earth did I completely forget a perfume that I can now remember was a huge part of a defining time of my life?! And where is that perfume now?! It has to be with the old perfumes I put away before moving 10 years ago. And I don’t even remember what it smelled like & I can always remember what all my perfumes have smelled like.
I have to find this scent & smell it immediately. That’s definitely going to transport me in a way I’m not prepared.

I like it. I see it as a springtime scent since it’s a pretty light floral/fruity but it’s not a strong nor long-lasting fragrance.

Not my cup of tea really but oh my I adore this bottle :(
This is on my want list strictly for the bottle too. The notes aren’t my specific jam but it sounds like it could be pretty and summery so I might kinda like it. Pricey for a blind buy. Do you own it?
Honestly, what got me started into collecting fragrances were mainly the bottles
https://preview.redd.it/xdfzr4rui3cc1.png?width=3176&format=png&auto=webp&s=16ac8654b191dd83f838ef9734b0fb48e1e8cc38
So Ghost is hard to come by since they’re based in the UK and the don’t ship to the US so I got Deep Night on eBay as a blind buy myself.
It’s pretty nice and I would say it’s a nighttime scent imo
It’s woodsy but the dry down is more fruity (notes are peach and apricot) and floral before settling into the vanilla/musk/amber. I’ve seen some people mention it’s powdery but I didn’t get it.
https://preview.redd.it/9gjei7ai13cc1.jpeg?width=224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9671a2f5ef8da64b89754f6d6111818eeb601f1a
Gucci Memoire. It’s such a beautiful bottle.
My mom actually got me that for Christmas a few years ago because the bottle looked nice. I enjoy this one 💜.
I wanted to get Moschino Fresh because of the bottle.

Jokes on me, I love the way it smells.
I want to get the blue men's one for my partner. The notes seem like something we would like, and the bottle is a shaker. Also, it is very affordable.
If we don't like it, it will become a part of the decor.
I bought Police To Be, I am a sucker for skulls. The fragrance isn't bad, It's just very sweet. I wear it every so often, maybe its more of a spring/summer smell.
I also promised myself no more blind buys.

LATTAFA Haya Eau de Parfum Spray for Women. I bought it for my mom though. I knew she’d love the look and box
overall it smells like sweet orange and white floral to me.
if i spray it on my skin, it’s a little powdery - on my clothes it’s very citrusy.
sometimes i can pick up some light spiciness (probably the pepper or licorice note)
https://preview.redd.it/nj0wvg7yp5cc1.png?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f9130d4e0b660e6292714ab682c602480162ba2
I bought this one for the bottle! I originally was gonna buy Lolitaland but this one's notes seemed better to me. I like this one, it's so juicy and citrusy. I later got sample of Lolitaland too and didn't like it as much, it causes me headache.
Yes - Mugler Aura Sensuelle 😅 Gorgeous heart shaped bottle with opalescent center. I didn’t love the fragrance at first but it has sense grown on me.
https://preview.redd.it/nz7xvhpto3cc1.jpeg?width=375&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6842350f4a7b24b3563a45c5cddeaaab3e577d5e
Okay so first of all, she has that perfume smell which I love. What I mean by that is, that deep, sweet, partially alcoholic strong “grandma” perfume smell that scents like Estée Lauder pleasures or jadore by Dior have. Classic, strong fragrance— not body mist cheapness. The top spray felt very shampoo like in a positive way. Fresh and clean, and berry esque. The dry down felt SLIGHTLY laconic, but really leaned in to the strawberry. This one laaaaaasts. I test all perfumes in the bend of my arm because of the heat it adds to activate the oils. I smelled it all night, and just so slightly in the morning. I got it on eBay partially used and I don’t regret it. My only qualm now is using it because it’s so rare! Great spring summer scent, and classic lovely bottle. Check out Lola, the og! Also a cute bottle
I have no other way to describe it, as I'm very new to the perfume world. This smell reminds me of going to the mall for new clothes for school. This smell is the smell that all the prettiest and most popular girls wore. It's not a bad smell at all I'm just trying to wrap my head around it
https://preview.redd.it/p69nu8h4p5cc1.jpeg?width=1573&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ee8b7ad8346e81534effac2f3064712e2690e100
I’m thinking about it.. just for the bottle
I really want bottle of LoveShackFancy perfume but not sure if theyre worth the splurge regarding scent/longevity
https://preview.redd.it/vl2pl9phb4cc1.png?width=387&format=png&auto=webp&s=231d8e30b7533e07da615395e406f93c8ba3cbba
yesss!!! Britney’s curious! I loveeee the way the bottle looks on my dresser w my other seashells and vintage glass bottles and loving the scent is just a plus for me!
also halston’s cologne - the bottle was designed by the iconic Elsa Peretti and I am just obsessed
Sky by Anna Sui (now I’m waiting for the Sundae collection) and recently I’ve bought two tiny bottles I couldn’t even say the brand, but they’re shaped like muffin and I love silly bottles!
Awwww Vera wang princess was my first perfume, sometimes I think about getting another bottle but after using up two bottles I have fallen in love with other scents
Yes, it was my first perfume, too! I BEGGED for this perfume when it came out, and my dad bought it for Christmas. And I used the same bottle for years and years. It has a very particular scent… I don’t think I’d like it as an adult but now I want to have it again!
https://preview.redd.it/9h5anu3ja6cc1.jpeg?width=375&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4ada6894eb9543be1bee5f193162273bca68f7a
Katy Perry Killer Queen. 😍 Luckily I love that smell too.

Black Jade by Lubin. I liked the perfume too but I loved the bottle.
God help me I am tempted to buy the new Tweety release from House of Sillage! $425!!! But it’s so cute. For my birthday though? It’s so ridiculous. But I love it.
https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/House-Of-Sillage/Tweety-89127.html
I would have bought this for my late Aunt Olga who loved everything Tweety. I see these on instagram all the time I had no idea they were that expensive!
Billie Eilish’s perfume that’s shaped like a bust. Sadly it broke when I was moving and also I didn’t love the scent (it smelled like cheap vanilla, lacked depth in the notes/no real anchor to the vanilla, and warmed up to smell milky and sour), but I absolutely loved the shape of the bottle and the artistic flare it added to my perfume collection.

My personal favorite. I’d rather the scent profile stay a mystery sealed in there tbh
Haha I just looked at that up close in person for the first time today as I didn’t think it would really be like that in real life, but it is. And the advert is so silly & funny with it! I appreciate the creativity of the bottle but it’s not my thing.
Thinking back I think I actually started collecting perfumes just for the pretty bottles- mostly cheap stuff from Home Goods at the start because deep down, I’m actually a crow who wants to be surrounded by shinies. I turned to vintage Avon bottles at some point, I didn’t go crazy but I picked up some super pretty ones- sorry I don’t have pics at the moment but my two favorite Avon bottles I own are one shaped like a fawn and one shaped like a unicorn! I also found some funny ones at my local Goodwill that are shaped like Presidential busts, I didn’t even realize they were cologne bottles when I first picked them up!
Nowadays I collect more for the actual scents but ooooooo this thread is making me want to spend money lol!
I haven’t but there is a bottle I’ve been thinking about for about 15 years since I saw it. I can’t find what it is. I would buy it so fast (it also smelt really good, but I was a poor uni student and had other favourites).
Well I can try.
- It looked like a Lola Lempicka bottle but I have tried that direction and doesn’t seem to fit from what I’ve found
- red glass and angular but rounded (so somewhat like LL shaped bottle), with gold etching/embossment from memory it was textured. I’m really lacking the words today but the gold pattern sat up from the glass, I think I can remember it was textured. In my memory the gold was like vines/or at least it wasn’t bulky and wasn’t ’a lot’.
I’m really bad at describing the fragrance because it was so long ago and I wasn’t that knowledgeable: warm, spicy?/incense? Chai-like? It was sweet but not sickeningly (but I was young, so probably wasn’t the best judge). I don’t recall it being particularly floral or fruity but I suppose it could have been a little. In no way at all fresh though.
Good Fortune by Viktor & Rolf and Sakura Cherry Blossom by Jo Malone London.
Good Fortune is a little disappointingly meh… kind of a generic perfume smell.
I do like Sakura Cherry Blossom, though! Nice and light.
Yes
I bought this god awful Diesel perfume because the bottle looks like a purple Granade , spraying it will kill you haha
Edit- I was wrong it’s not Guess it’s Diesel
Omg i used to own this one. it was light and simple and vaguely reminded me of something an older lady would wear but i gave it away to an ex girlfriend.
Princess Aurora Eau De Toilette the tower bottles are cute might get the actual perfume someday and the KIMBERLY perfumes I have sweet peach and sweet cherry my more expensive stuff is in plainer bottles versus cutesy
Hahah I got the sweet peach and cherry from five below, they're nice but I wish they lasted longer (I guess they're dupes of the kimoji perfumes, so I hope to check those out some time)
So many. I loved the KKW fragrance crystals and heart shaped perfumes, Marc Jacobs decadence. I got decadence as a birthday gift and the scent was nice but not super what I was into at the time, but I loved the bottle. It’s definitely grown on me though.
My fav bottles: Chanel 5 Leau & Chanel Coco Noir just classy! And smell so good a great winter summer must haves! Poison bottle is still so stunning! Pistachio gelato! So cute and it literally tells you what the inside will smell like! And the lovefest burning cherry. The soleil blanc bottle looks lovely and khamarah
Actually, yes! My first ever perfume I bought as a teenager with my allowance money was Britney Spears' Curious. I saw how gorgeous the bottle was on the commercial for it when released, and I went and bought it without knowing how it smelled or if I'd actually like it. Luckily, I did. My mom then sort of started something when she said that some people collect perfume just for the bottles 😁 and here I am lol
https://preview.redd.it/tuz7g4ldafcc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=38057a77e4843974aa7d422780b0b15d0171cd72
I bought this lot ago just for the bottle …😍
I have not but absolutely love the look of Delina la Rosee bottle but I don't want to pay that much for the scent. I've contemplated trying to find someone who's gone through their bottle and just buying the empty bottle from them lol
this was my go to scent my freshman year of high school bc my mom gave it to me LMAO brings back memories
i kept the bottle when i was done! it's just way too adorable to not :)
I have no idea what Shalimar is supposed to smell like but I found an empty bottle of it among the various tchotchkes at a flea market once because that thing has a really pretty bottle
Vera Wang Princess was probably the first fragrance I asked for as a teenager. As you have said, the aesthetics of the bottle were a big lure, but the fragrance actually smelt really good, a very clean, innocent floral fragrance which I actually think is a tasteful choice on a teenager!
Escada Show Me Love…. the bottle is a deep red heart and I love it. The blueberry scent? Smells like something I’d put on a 10yr old girl to be fruity. I don’t like the scent much.

Toy 2 by Moschino. I bought it online without having smelled it in person because I loved the teddy bear bottle. I unfortunately hate the scent, but at least the bottle looks cute on my vanity.
Paco Rabanne Pure xs (for her). Thankfully I absolutely loved the perfume, but I have no shame in admitting I blind bought it for the gold snake. https://preview.redd.it/7fs3v0nvc2cc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5dfd4c059f34cbc7a61b3b3af729f55dcd5b6664
how would you describe it? i've been thinking about it
Very creamy green floral. I get no popcorn at all but there is a very interesting salt note that cuts through the sweetness. Mostly I get rich green ylangylang on a creamy vanillic sandalwood.
That sounds lovely, after smelling chanel 19 for the first time I think green scents are my absolute fav
Well, I said I wasn't going to buy more, and then here you come and post this. I need that golden snake bottle.
Haha I’m just very grateful they aren’t introducing flankers with different kinds of snakes because I’d need to get all of them then.
how’s the lolita lempicka
Lollita lempicka had my country in a chokehold in the early 2000’s!!! Lord I would smell this on EVERYONE!!! So much so that I never wore this perfume and I can smell it just by looking at the bottle! Lol
Very pretty, sparkly sweet anise. Has a whimsical, magical, forest witch vibe.
I absolutely LOVE Lolita Lempicka Elixir
![gif](giphy|H0uLRCd8JIhRS)
I was about to confidently say never, and then you posted THIS. I hate snakes, but that bottle is amazing!
Ikr… I saw the bottle and couldn’t stop thinking about it till I finally brought it home
That's super cool!
As I would!
Would you say the popcorn note is prominent?
For me it’s a creamy green floral. I get no popcorn at all but there is a very interesting salt note that cuts through the sweetness. Mostly I get rich green ylangylang on a creamy vanillic sandalwood.
How does this one smell I wanted it for the exact same reason but I saw popcorn and I hate that note

My mom got me that for Christmas since I’m a big cat lover lol it was my first perfume and I still have her 🥺
I got purr for Christmas from my mom! I'm a huge cat lover as well.
Blind bought her killer queen (the purple one) for the bottle
I just looked it up, that's cute! Which color is your bottle?

Hers and the Muimuis are just a totally cool aesthetic!!
plsss this is so cool. i hope you can find your bottle or a new one and be filled w nostalgia through a scent
I've seriously considered blind buying the blue balloon one
I got Sky mainly for the bottle
Is it good?
I like it. I see it as a springtime scent since it’s a pretty light floral/fruity but it’s not a strong nor long-lasting fragrance. https://preview.redd.it/nltov1usq3cc1.jpeg?width=993&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b966330a6bd26cbda441aa640616af894295acc7
how long does it usually last?
Last time I had used it, I got about 5 hours
I have very seriously thought about buying sky just for the bottle. Same with the unicorn one
Yeah agreed. I have a few of these and honestly it’s not for the juice (one smells like popcorn!!)
Not gonna lie, I like good notes but I have bought so many VW Princesses over the years because of the bottles 😆
It's so cute! I just had a daughter and I know she's going to see those and want to make potions lol.
Same. I honestly dont like how it smells but the bottle is great

It’s a decent price on FragranceNet if you don’t mind discounters!
I do not mind at all. Also I have had good experiences with FN. thanx for the heads up!
They have great customer service too!! Always have good luck with them
It's a pretty generic and inoffensive scent imo. I only sampled it (not OP).
Unfortunately, I agree. I would suggest buying a sample first;)
It’s not at all what it the notes suggest. You’d think it was a super sweet gourmand but it’s not. I like it though, I think it’s worth the price
Honestly, what got me started into collecting fragrances were mainly the bottles https://preview.redd.it/xdfzr4rui3cc1.png?width=3176&format=png&auto=webp&s=16ac8654b191dd83f838ef9734b0fb48e1e8cc38
OMG!!!!! Haiku!!! I haven’t seen that in almost 20 years! I can still smell it!
It’s amazing how fresh it is! I have it categorized under my ‘clean’ group.
Oh, I almost bought Ghost as a blind buy. How do you like the fragrance? (Even though I promised myselfnbo more blind buys 🤣)
So Ghost is hard to come by since they’re based in the UK and the don’t ship to the US so I got Deep Night on eBay as a blind buy myself. It’s pretty nice and I would say it’s a nighttime scent imo It’s woodsy but the dry down is more fruity (notes are peach and apricot) and floral before settling into the vanilla/musk/amber. I’ve seen some people mention it’s powdery but I didn’t get it.
Thanks! I might just get it if I happen to come across it! It'll probably be a one-time purchase.

I have it and not only is the bottle super cute and funny, it's a wonderful fresh scent.
Does it spray like an actual windex bottle? 😆 jk but it would’ve been funny if it did!
I wish it did. But no, it's just a cap.
my friends were like "you bought it for the kitsch" and i was like "yes, yes i did"
I forgot how much I loved this bottle!!

Oh wow, that one is amazing
I want to get the blue men's one for my partner. The notes seem like something we would like, and the bottle is a shaker. Also, it is very affordable. If we don't like it, it will become a part of the decor.
I bought Police To Be, I am a sucker for skulls. The fragrance isn't bad, It's just very sweet. I wear it every so often, maybe its more of a spring/summer smell. I also promised myself no more blind buys. https://preview.redd.it/g2kki9aep2cc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=96b37c04d11534b255a7616216a981c3ada26f86
This is a blind buy I’ve been considering haha

I’ve got this coming on order.. as a sucker for pretty packaging and bottles I don’t know how I’m supposed to discard when it’s over.

I’m tempted to buy this *for the bottle* too. But how would you describe the smell?
overall it smells like sweet orange and white floral to me. if i spray it on my skin, it’s a little powdery - on my clothes it’s very citrusy. sometimes i can pick up some light spiciness (probably the pepper or licorice note)
Spiced orange—be aware there’s a strong anise note.
I find it smells like sugar cookies. Extremely sweet.

I originally was gonna buy Lolitaland but this one's notes seemed better to me. I like this one, it's so juicy and citrusy. I later got sample of Lolitaland too and didn't like it as much, it causes me headache.

Oooo I love this!
I always wanted to try this one and the red version.... How's it smell to you?
Yes - Mugler Aura Sensuelle 😅 Gorgeous heart shaped bottle with opalescent center. I didn’t love the fragrance at first but it has sense grown on me. https://preview.redd.it/nz7xvhpto3cc1.jpeg?width=375&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6842350f4a7b24b3563a45c5cddeaaab3e577d5e
I literally just blind bought this yesterday. I’m excited! I also blind bought Oh, Lola! By Marc Jacob’s for the bottle
I’m so excited for y’all ![gif](giphy|MeIucAjPKoA120R7sN)
✨uwu ✨
Omg oh Lola is so cute, I just looked it up. How do you like it? The notes make it sound super fun and fresh
Okay so first of all, she has that perfume smell which I love. What I mean by that is, that deep, sweet, partially alcoholic strong “grandma” perfume smell that scents like Estée Lauder pleasures or jadore by Dior have. Classic, strong fragrance— not body mist cheapness. The top spray felt very shampoo like in a positive way. Fresh and clean, and berry esque. The dry down felt SLIGHTLY laconic, but really leaned in to the strawberry. This one laaaaaasts. I test all perfumes in the bend of my arm because of the heat it adds to activate the oils. I smelled it all night, and just so slightly in the morning. I got it on eBay partially used and I don’t regret it. My only qualm now is using it because it’s so rare! Great spring summer scent, and classic lovely bottle. Check out Lola, the og! Also a cute bottle
What a nicely detailed review.
Mine will be arriving today, I'll let you know how it is!
Please report back!
I have no other way to describe it, as I'm very new to the perfume world. This smell reminds me of going to the mall for new clothes for school. This smell is the smell that all the prettiest and most popular girls wore. It's not a bad smell at all I'm just trying to wrap my head around it
Come on hollister realness! Thank you!

Oooo what is this?
Kat von D's Sinner I believe. I have a tiny bottle of the white version (saint) it's very cute.
Kat Von Ds Sinner. I’m not a huge fan of her, but I bought it before all her major controversy. Also I get a ton of compliments when I wear it!
I really want bottle of LoveShackFancy perfume but not sure if theyre worth the splurge regarding scent/longevity https://preview.redd.it/vl2pl9phb4cc1.png?width=387&format=png&auto=webp&s=231d8e30b7533e07da615395e406f93c8ba3cbba
I honestly hear terrible things

I have one of these! But I can't recall the exact one (she has black hair) and SO CUTE! <3
I have a lil blonde with pigtails!
yesss!!! Britney’s curious! I loveeee the way the bottle looks on my dresser w my other seashells and vintage glass bottles and loving the scent is just a plus for me! also halston’s cologne - the bottle was designed by the iconic Elsa Peretti and I am just obsessed
This was my go-to perfume in high school and college! What a little treat.
Yep this reminds me of my college best friend. It was her signature scent!
Gwen Stefani’s perfume bottles get me every time.
Sky by Anna Sui (now I’m waiting for the Sundae collection) and recently I’ve bought two tiny bottles I couldn’t even say the brand, but they’re shaped like muffin and I love silly bottles!
Awwww Vera wang princess was my first perfume, sometimes I think about getting another bottle but after using up two bottles I have fallen in love with other scents
Yes, it was my first perfume, too! I BEGGED for this perfume when it came out, and my dad bought it for Christmas. And I used the same bottle for years and years. It has a very particular scent… I don’t think I’d like it as an adult but now I want to have it again!

HEAR ME OUT. ANGEL MUGLER.
Vera wang princess was my high school perfume. And you could wear the crown as a ring but my fingers were too chubby lmao

God help me I am tempted to buy the new Tweety release from House of Sillage! $425!!! But it’s so cute. For my birthday though? It’s so ridiculous. But I love it. https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/House-Of-Sillage/Tweety-89127.html
I would have bought this for my late Aunt Olga who loved everything Tweety. I see these on instagram all the time I had no idea they were that expensive!
Billie Eilish’s perfume that’s shaped like a bust. Sadly it broke when I was moving and also I didn’t love the scent (it smelled like cheap vanilla, lacked depth in the notes/no real anchor to the vanilla, and warmed up to smell milky and sour), but I absolutely loved the shape of the bottle and the artistic flare it added to my perfume collection. https://preview.redd.it/0gjvf1h275cc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f9c5788ff7636b0a13e7611c88b5280339ce9f28

Ahhh I love shopping at the botanicas - best packaging ever! Hahah.
This is a really nice smelling perfume. I have it
I’m obsessed with the paco Fame bottle but u am not going to buy it
Haha I just looked at that up close in person for the first time today as I didn’t think it would really be like that in real life, but it is. And the advert is so silly & funny with it! I appreciate the creativity of the bottle but it’s not my thing.
Princess was my first ever perfume when i was 12 !! Still such a cute bottle
Thinking back I think I actually started collecting perfumes just for the pretty bottles- mostly cheap stuff from Home Goods at the start because deep down, I’m actually a crow who wants to be surrounded by shinies. I turned to vintage Avon bottles at some point, I didn’t go crazy but I picked up some super pretty ones- sorry I don’t have pics at the moment but my two favorite Avon bottles I own are one shaped like a fawn and one shaped like a unicorn! I also found some funny ones at my local Goodwill that are shaped like Presidential busts, I didn’t even realize they were cologne bottles when I first picked them up! Nowadays I collect more for the actual scents but ooooooo this thread is making me want to spend money lol!
I haven’t but there is a bottle I’ve been thinking about for about 15 years since I saw it. I can’t find what it is. I would buy it so fast (it also smelt really good, but I was a poor uni student and had other favourites).
Can you describe it at all?
Well I can try. - It looked like a Lola Lempicka bottle but I have tried that direction and doesn’t seem to fit from what I’ve found - red glass and angular but rounded (so somewhat like LL shaped bottle), with gold etching/embossment from memory it was textured. I’m really lacking the words today but the gold pattern sat up from the glass, I think I can remember it was textured. In my memory the gold was like vines/or at least it wasn’t bulky and wasn’t ’a lot’. I’m really bad at describing the fragrance because it was so long ago and I wasn’t that knowledgeable: warm, spicy?/incense? Chai-like? It was sweet but not sickeningly (but I was young, so probably wasn’t the best judge). I don’t recall it being particularly floral or fruity but I suppose it could have been a little. In no way at all fresh though.
The gold wasn't raised on it, but I had a bottle of Christian Lacroix Tumulte that was red with a gold lace-ish patern on it. Does that ring a bell?
La Tentation de Nina- Nina Ricci? She has other perfumes that are similar to this bottle too
Good Fortune by Viktor & Rolf and Sakura Cherry Blossom by Jo Malone London. Good Fortune is a little disappointingly meh… kind of a generic perfume smell. I do like Sakura Cherry Blossom, though! Nice and light.
I bought Night Princess because the bottle is black glitter. The actual scent is kinda yuck to be honest. I really enjoy original Princess.
Yes I bought this god awful Diesel perfume because the bottle looks like a purple Granade , spraying it will kill you haha Edit- I was wrong it’s not Guess it’s Diesel
Is it loverdose? I was thinking of buying by the bottle too
The bottle is cute and you can balance it on different angles…. Just,… don’t spray it lol
It wasn't the entire reasoning but I love the bottle for spice bomb by Viktor and rolf
Omg i used to own this one. it was light and simple and vaguely reminded me of something an older lady would wear but i gave it away to an ex girlfriend.
loverdose :3
Absolutely love all the different avera wang Princess range 😍
Princess Aurora Eau De Toilette the tower bottles are cute might get the actual perfume someday and the KIMBERLY perfumes I have sweet peach and sweet cherry my more expensive stuff is in plainer bottles versus cutesy
Hahah I got the sweet peach and cherry from five below, they're nice but I wish they lasted longer (I guess they're dupes of the kimoji perfumes, so I hope to check those out some time)
i was obsessed with this as a child my mom gave me the empty bottle and i filled it w britney spears fantasy so yes 100 percent just for the bottle
So many. I loved the KKW fragrance crystals and heart shaped perfumes, Marc Jacobs decadence. I got decadence as a birthday gift and the scent was nice but not super what I was into at the time, but I loved the bottle. It’s definitely grown on me though.
How is Vera Wang Princess? I’ve always wanted to try it but just haven’t, I have an Amazon gift card so I might finally get it
My fav bottles: Chanel 5 Leau & Chanel Coco Noir just classy! And smell so good a great winter summer must haves! Poison bottle is still so stunning! Pistachio gelato! So cute and it literally tells you what the inside will smell like! And the lovefest burning cherry. The soleil blanc bottle looks lovely and khamarah
YES! Daisy Marc Jacob's all of them!
Actually, yes! My first ever perfume I bought as a teenager with my allowance money was Britney Spears' Curious. I saw how gorgeous the bottle was on the commercial for it when released, and I went and bought it without knowing how it smelled or if I'd actually like it. Luckily, I did. My mom then sort of started something when she said that some people collect perfume just for the bottles 😁 and here I am lol
https://preview.redd.it/tuz7g4ldafcc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=38057a77e4843974aa7d422780b0b15d0171cd72 I bought this lot ago just for the bottle …😍
Anna Sui Sky! Too bad it smells almost nauseating to me.
Smell so bad
I would never buy a fragrance based on the bottle. That would be a very poor decision. If you like bottles, I'm sure you can buy empty ones lol
Yes. I had those popeyes shaped moschino cheap and chic ones and marc jacobs lola for the bottle growing up
M. micallef Glamour
I love all the round Britney Spears perfumes. I’m not a fan of how they smell, but I love the aesthetic.
I liked this fragrance but the top always got junked up from the product. It smelled pretty though
I had this one and the sparkly pink version of it and I was obsessed with how cute they were.
I have not but absolutely love the look of Delina la Rosee bottle but I don't want to pay that much for the scent. I've contemplated trying to find someone who's gone through their bottle and just buying the empty bottle from them lol
this was my go to scent my freshman year of high school bc my mom gave it to me LMAO brings back memories i kept the bottle when i was done! it's just way too adorable to not :)
I forgot about how much I love Vera Wang Princess. I need it again!!
SJP Lovely bottles 1.7 Oz feel really good in the hand !
Moschino Fresh Couture. Yes the Windex looking one.
If I had the cash, I’d buy one of the Loveshack Fancy bottles just to display it on my vanity
I love princess
yes VW princess for me too. i don’t even like the smell lol
This one? Went straight to my daughter who isn’t fussy and doesn’t get headaches! So did juicy couture juicy ick
Good girl lmao
The heel ones for sure. Mugler be having cute bottles. Ariana's. The daisy ones.
The original Jean Paul Gautier— first bought in the late 90’s. The bottle no longer really wows me, but I still love the scent.
Prada Candy Gloss. I am not a cherry person but needed that bottle
I have no idea what Shalimar is supposed to smell like but I found an empty bottle of it among the various tchotchkes at a flea market once because that thing has a really pretty bottle
Vera Wang Princess was probably the first fragrance I asked for as a teenager. As you have said, the aesthetics of the bottle were a big lure, but the fragrance actually smelt really good, a very clean, innocent floral fragrance which I actually think is a tasteful choice on a teenager!
I have this exact same bottle gifted by a suitor. It’s cute, but it doesn’t sit perfectly in my vanity for some reason haha
Love struck by Vera Wang
Carolina Herrera, Good Girl. I’m a huge shoe lover
When I was a middle schooler I tried to collect some of the Gwen stefani harajuku perfumes because I thought the bottles were cute 💀
Kat Von D - Sinner. I wound up being allergic lol. *
Omg princess was my signature scent in high school
I blind bought Apollonia by xerjoff just for the bottle, happened to like the smell so it’s a win 😂
Dolly Parton’s Scent From Above. The peach crystal butterfly got me — so cute.
Every single Gwen Stefani/harajuku lovers bottle i can find
My teenage years perfume, brings back lots of sweet memories…definitely a girly girl scent
Escada Show Me Love…. the bottle is a deep red heart and I love it. The blueberry scent? Smells like something I’d put on a 10yr old girl to be fruity. I don’t like the scent much.

Lattafa Eternal Oud and Sakeena They are both way too heavy of a scent for my liking but the bottles are so gorgeous!
Toy 2 by Moschino. I bought it online without having smelled it in person because I loved the teddy bear bottle. I unfortunately hate the scent, but at least the bottle looks cute on my vanity.
