Launched in 1948, right after WWII, as a symbol of peace, love, and optimism. The intertwined doves on the stopper represent peace (a direct nod to the post-war era). It's one of the best-selling and most enduring classic perfumes ever made. The fluted/swirled glass bottle and especially the frosted crystal double dove stopper were designed and produced by the renowned French crystal house Lalique (signed on the base in authentic pieces). Lalique collaborations are highly collectible on their own this specific dove design was even named Perfume Bottle of the Century in 2000. The bright yellow satin-lined, theatrical drop-down or reveal-style box with ribbon pull is a rare, premium vintage packaging (often from the 1950s1980s era). These special presentation sets were not mass-produced like modern boxes and are sought after by collectors. Fragrance Family: Floral.
