Book Review

As the title suggests, this book presents numerous photographs of bottles ranging from ceramic vessels used for scented oils in antiquity to perfume bottles from couture brands up to around 1960. It reveals a beauty different from that of modern perfume bottles, and shows that functionality is not everything.
