I have always loved to see the different ways that perfume for women is presented. One of my favorite memories of going to my grandparent's house was to see all of the perfume bottles that Grandma had. They don't package them like that much anymore... But, perfumers do still use pretty bottles to package their perfume for women. I was shopping online the other day when I came across a perfume called Angel, and the bottle is in the shape of a star. Other perfumers package their scents in bottles characteristic of the name of the perfume. For example, Bijan has a perfume called DNA, and the bottle has been shaped similarly to a DNA strand. If I wanted to give my mom a flower and perfume at the same time, Kenzo Flower perfume has a curved bottle with a flower printed on the outside of the glass. It's really pretty, actually. Perfume for women still comes in pretty packages or bottles, even if those bottles don't remind me of the old ones I used to love admiring. I guess I'll have to ask Grandma for her collection some day.
