Cleopatra's Boudoir: fake

Welcome!

Welcome to my unique perfume blog! Here, you'll find detailed, encyclopedic entries about perfumes and companies, complete with facts and photos for easy research. This site is not affiliated with any perfume companies; it's a reference source for collectors and enthusiasts who cherish classic fragrances. My goal is to highlight beloved, discontinued classics and show current brand owners the demand for their revival. Your input is invaluable! Please share why you liked a fragrance, describe its scent, the time period you wore it, any memorable occasions, or what it reminded you of. Did a relative wear it, or did you like the bottle design? Your stories might catch the attention of brand representatives. I regularly update posts with new information and corrections. Your contributions help keep my entries accurate and comprehensive. Please comment and share any additional information you have. Together, we can keep the legacy of classic perfumes alive!

Fake Victorian and Antique Chatelaine Perfumes

Here is a warning for those who buy on ebay, a seller (sunil_arts_engg_works) located in India is making fake chatelaine scent bottles. They are taking newer bottles and adding new brass hardware and calling them antique or Victorian. Most of the bottles are 1930s and newer. Many are Art Deco in style which look stupid with fake Victorian hardware. Please be aware that these are not genuine antique Victorian era perfume bottles. See some examples below. Many of their perfume bottles exhibit the same exact hardware.

They do have some authentic antique Victorian perfume bottles and scent bottles for sale amongst their "fantasy" pieces.
