Salvador Dali Perfume Bottle

This Salvador Dali perfume bottle, if you believe its seller, looks and smells as good as when it was created in 1985. With a frosted glass nose and a Dali-signed pair of lips, the real appeal is the Salvador Dali-designed perfume bottle, though the scent is supposedly as charming, and picked by Dali: a blend of rose and jasmine, the rose celebrated Mrs. Dali’s rose garden, while Dali wore a sprig of jasmise behind his ear as he believed the flower to be a hallucinogen.
So why do I hate such a charming piece of art? I can’t figure out how to justify buying this Salvador Dali perfume bottle, since I’ve been stuck on a non-transferable perfume for years. Though for forty bucks, who cares…

K, this is no antique/unique piece of art. This is the first Dali perfume first created 1983, not 1985 – and is still in production. You can find it in just about every European chain perfume store. I don’t know what company has the rights to the Dali name for perfume licensing, but there is an absolute ton of Dali perfumes on the market – mostly the same fruity floral crap you get at any Sephora, and the bottles are varying degrees of interesting or ridiculous, slapping Dali’s name on it notwithstanding. This one doesn’t really get sold outside of Europe as it is a more grown up non sweet floral chypre, not what sells in the US anymore (although that was the style in the 80s). So this isn’t really worth your money – spend it on some more matcha or look for something really worth the money, like a honestly vintage 20s perfume atomizer!

I would save that $40 bucks for something good, you can’t change from L’Artisan Tubereuse to 1985 eu de toillette!

You’re both so right. I’m blowing my dough on three soy matcha green tea lattes at Urth Caffe right now, instead.
XXXO,
