This is a close-up HDR photo of three Ricksecker perfume bottles that I took at the Sherbrooke Village pharmacy. The Martha Washington scent (at left) was one of the most popular perfumes in the 1880's.
when i go xmas shopping for others, invariably, i find at least 10 times as many things that i need to buy for myself.
i knew these existed. but, it wasn't till i saw them in person that i knew i had to have them.
i decided against spending the $125 for all 5 last night. but, it won't be long before they are mine.
typically, i don't do perfume.
even though i've never really had this confirmed, i have allergies.
smelly shit has me rubbing my nose like crazy.
but, these actually have fairly light, pleasant scents. i sprayed them all into the air at the mall last night.
so, i think i actually could tolerate them...
we shall see.
i figured maybe i'd use my cc rewards points to get myself a giftcard to macy's and then pick them up there.
Un carácter sagrado rodea el perfume desde la Antigüedad. Es en la Edad de Piedra cuando nuestros antepasados descubrieron el fuego y con él los aromas de maderas y resinas quemadas; ofrendaban el humo que éstos despedían para agradar a los poderes celestiales.
Los perfumes y esencias en Egipto, Persia, Grecia y las civilizaciones antiguas
En Egipto, los sacerdotes tenían el cargo exclusivo de elaborar deliciosas substancias de las que la fórmula, constituía un secreto celosamente guardado.
Los Persas descubrieron el arte de hacer macerar flores en aceite, para luego exprimirlas cuando éste estuviera impregnado de sus aromas. Babilonia fue durante mucho tiempo el jardín aromático más importante del mundo. Semiramis creadora de los famosos jardines colgantes, hizo traer flores exóticas de la India y Arabia y árboles de resinas aromáticas para la producción de perfumes.
Después de las conquistas de Alejandro Magno, los perfumes egipcios llegaron a Grecia. Los Griegos consideraban que el perfume tenia origen divino y a las mujeres que los preparaban se les atribuían poderes místicos.
Los Romanos invocaban sus dioses “per fumum”, a través del humo de materias olorosas honraban a sus dioses y emperadores ungiéndolos con aceites perfumados como sándalo, tomillo, lavanda o enebro.
This is a small pot of solid perfume, a gift from abroad. The little pot stands just over 2" high.

The first time was not when we undressed
but a few days before,
while you were talking under a tree.
I felt distant areas of my body
who were returning home "

Hello amazing Flickr people!
Today is yellow day at Color My World Daily Group and the theme at *ღღ* Cosas de casa *ღღ Group is : Perfume bottle.
This is a vintage perfume bottle from the 40. It was my husband’s grandmother perfume bottle. Since I love vintage old items with character, my mother in law gave me this amazing little bottle. I absolutely love it. Apparently, you are supposed to pour your favorite parfum in it. But since the price of genuine parfum is rather too high for my budget, my little bottle is empty and I use it as decoration. Maybe I will try to make some dandelions parfum, I have so many of those flowers, it will be super cheap! I will call it : “Nostalgie de pissenlits” or dandelions nostalgia. Also, all my perfumes are in spray bottles and knowing how clumsy I am, it would be a disaster if I try to open the spray bottle and pour it in this very, very tiny, unique and fragile crystal bottle…. Can you imagine the potential mess happening ?? I definitely can. Plus, I’m sure that if, God forbid, something happens to my bottle my mother in law would give me definitely the stinkiest eye ever! And I don’t blame her! This bottle is older than me, so I have the responsibility to protect it with my own body!!! Until my death! and then, probably, my 2 sons will throw it away with all my junk… But at least it will not be my fault!
See you later my friends !! My video meeting starts in few minutes… Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and healthy!! And enjoy your day !!!
The persuasive power of perfume cannot be denied, it penetrates us as the air we breathe penetrates our lungs, fills us, totally dominates us, there is no way to oppose it.
