[[page 1]] [[column 1]] Great ideas come in small packages: Estée Lauder's Touch-On dazzling gold and silver is conveniently contained in sleek, portable swivel cases all the prototypes, she chose the bottle numbered "five." That was how CHANEL N° 5 was named. Today, the bottle remains a classic. The great selection of fragrance bottles available today is an example of beauty, ingenuity and utility. One of the most beautiful bottles, Lancôme's TRÉSOR, is a stepped pyramid that became an instant favorite. In fact, in 1994 Lancôme commissioned Swarovski to create a holiday edition of the bottle. The great crystal house produced just 5,000 numbered and signed bottles, in addition to miniature bottle pendants hung on a silk chord. In 1996 Swarovski created a special edition bottle for Yves Saint Laurent's PARIS perfume. The 96-facet bottle was cut like a diamond. Yves Saint Laurent's newest fragrance, BABY [[image three perfume bottles with words "PARIS YSL BABY DOLL"]] [[/column 1]] [[column 2]] [[image - two solid perfume sticks and boxes in gold and silver packaging.

It is designed as a faceted spinning top, with a golden stopper and little black collar. The bottle's whimsical-while-still-exquisite design is an accurate clue to the sweet scent inside. Keeping fragrance inside the container and not all over the bag must have been the inspiration for Estée Lauder's new versions of her TOUCH-ON DAZZLING SILVER AND DAZZLING GOLD. This popular fragrance is packaged in a portable, sleek swivel case and is definitely an idea whose time has come. Lise Watier's NEIGES is a fragrance that is catching on quickly. This best seller in Canada is now available in the U.S. at Sephora (whose stunning new flagship store opened last month in Rockefeller Center). Neiges is a white-floral fragrance whose name, scent and bottle all evoke a white-winter feel. The curved, elliptical bottle is made of crystalline glass, but its real beauty lies in the sculpted snowflakes on frosted glass.

Fragrance as aroma therapy is not new, but the therapeutic bottle just may be. Shiseido's ENERGIZING FRAGRANCE is filled with uplifting notes of star anise, black pepper and clove. The pleasantly weighted bottle in melting red resembles a flat-topped upside-down ice-cream cone. The weight and form are said to represent energy, force and bliss. Despite a bottle's therapeutic or aesthetic properties, the selection and availability of fragrance today may encourage the notion of the bottle's disposability. But take a look at your vanity. You may already possess a distinguished collection.
