Offered is a 3.3oz/100ml splash bottle, in its original box and cellophane. This is an early bottle, likely 1970s. A rarity to be found in this intact condition. An atomizer, funnel, and pipette will be included for your convenience. I do not know exactly what the bottle inside looks like- the lead picture is my best guess. Likely a disc shaped bottle with a screw top.
Highly recommended to read Grace Arnone Hummel’s exhaustive research on this perfume. All credit to her:
