Carnet de Bal
1 oz Parfum
-
This is the oldest bottle of Carnet de Bal I have ever seen, and it is unopened. Box is the original design from the 1940s. Box shows its age on the top and has some staining on the inside top.
Carnet de Bal is a classic fragrance that was created by Maurice Shaller in 1937. It opens with citrus and fruit notes along with chamomile. The heart is floral with rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, lily and cyclamen, laid on a base of patchouli, oak moss, amber, vanilla and musk.

2 oz perfume
-
This is from the 1930-40 era with a metal cap. The top of label is worn off but I think it may have said toilet water. This is from a collection of unused bottles that had been rubbing against each other for 65+ years, so this may not have been used, as many of the others still have seals. The perfume inside is in excellent condition, although the water and alcohol have almost all evaporated. What is left is very pleasant and wearable, so I am just calling this perfume. There is more than 1/3 left, I would guess about 20 ml.

Beautiful bottle from the early 1900s. Stopper is frozen, although I haven't tried to open it. I can only imagine how gorgeous the scent inside is.

Fleurs d’Amour was launched in 1902. This is one of the earliest perfumes marketed by Roger and Gallet in America. Rogers & Gallet used Baccarat to produce the bottles for the Fleurs d’Amour. Many of the bottles made prior to 1936 were not marked or stamped Baccarat. This bottle is not marked Baccarat indicating an early production. The foil over paper label is wearing thin. It has two other labels on the bottle showing it was compounded in the USA and another indicating the volume.
It is classified as a floral fragrance for women.
