Their history in the twentieth century has been marked by the development of elaborate packaging: boxes, labels, ribbons, and medallions. The product of modern marketing -- an attempt to create a personality for each perfume with its own distinctive name -- perfume bottles have been the work of some of the century's finest designers.

Inspired creations resulting from close collaborations are also explored, such as between Paul Poiret -- the first couturier to introduce his own perfumes -- and his artist friends, among them Paul Iribe and Georges Lepape; or Elsa Schiaparelli and the Surrealist painter Salvador Dali.
