Perfume & Vanity items from the 1800s to 2000

ID 1392 Caron Voeu de Noel 1946 Click on each photo for larger view of it Bottle designed by Felicie Vanpouille (Felicie Bergaud) and manufactured by Cristallerie de Romesnil, this gorgeous perfume bottle is a real treasure to own and admire. This is from my personal collection. I bought this Voeu de Noel bottle without the box so I custom made this box to display my bottle in. It came with about 1/2 oz of perfume which I transferred to a small screw top bottle while I was making the box in 2012. I have to locate that little bottle to sell with this bottle. The scent is almost identical to Nuit de Noel with the addition of a few extra notes, such as violet, carnation, sweet woods, spices and Mousse de Saxe. available Price: $ 500 Contact Deb

ID 1379 Caron Mode 1930 2 oz Bottle Click on each photo for larger view of it This very rare Caron perfume was first released in 1920 under the name La Mode but Caron trademarked the name Mode 1930 in 1923. So this bottle is from the 1920s. It was discontinued in 1935. A small amount of perfume remains. available Price: $ 270 Contact Deb

ID 1026 Caron Fleurs de Rocaille 2 oz Parfum Click on each photo for larger view of it Here is a 2 oz parfum from the 1940s, still sealed and still has it paper doily around the stopper. Wonderful perfume in great condition. available Price: $ 150 Contact Deb

ID 1316 Caron Le Narcisse Noir 2 1/8 oz Parfum bottle Click on each photo for larger view of it Absolutely wonderful. It is the large bottle and is a little less than half full. It has alittle less than 1 oz of parfum left inside and it smells fabulous! available Price: $ 190 Contact Deb

ID 1414 Chaqueneau III 1/4 oz Parfum Click on each photo for larger view of it This is an interesting perfume from the 1940s, and is in remarkable condition for its age. Mrs. Julien Chaqueneau of New York Society was associated with the Rockefellas and the Wanamakers and others in the high society of Park Ave. She was also a close friend of Gloria Vanderbilt. The Wanamakers were the founders of the first department store in New York City. I imagine this might be where this was first sold. The Chaqueneaus were also the owners of a resort in New York and this could have been sold there as a souvenir. Box is a slide out box. available Price: $ 70 Contact Deb

ID 1351 Charbert Breathless 1 oz Parfum Click on each photo for larger view of it I am very fond of the Charbert perfumes and Breathless is one of my favorites. Charbert bottles are all done in the design of a marching drum. Breathless was first released in 1933. I would estimate there to be about 1/3 oz to 1/4 oz of amazingly condensed and beautiful oriental perfume. Spicy, a base of vetiver, tonka bean, patchouli, musk, amber, and balsam. The top notes are gone but the rich orange and bergamot notes have mellowed to a have a warm, carnation feel. Just a wonderful wearable perfume. I would date this bottle to the 1950-60 range. Has a silver foil label on the bottom of bottle, and a nice glass stopper. available Price: $ 50 Contact Deb

ID 1384 Charbert Fabulous 1/2 oz Parfum with box Click on each photo for larger view of it Released in 1945, this is another of my favorite perfumes. But I have never smelled a Charbert perfume I didn't love. What does it smell like? I smell muguet, violet, amber and carnation. While I have many bottles of Breathless, this is my only bottle of Fabulous. It's really very nice and must be rare as I use to buy all Charberts I could find. About 1/2 of the perfume remains. Box is in less than pristine shape with some stains on the outside. available Price: $ 80 Contact Deb
