This second edition begins with the section "From the Ladies and Gentlemen of the Club," written by members of the International Perfume Bottle Association. Three companies, the House of Guerlain, the W. & H. Walker Company, and the Bacorn Company, are given special chapters. Most of the rest of the book groups perfume bottles by date. A special section on perfume scent cards is another feature of the book.
Reader Reviews
Do not buy this book if you are really looking for a useful price guide. This book has lovely pictures and covers the more well known perfume makers but if you are looking for the obscure look elsewhere. Her price quotes are completely off base. She quotes the highest possible best case scenario prices but they do not reflect the prices the market is seeing today. I don't believe she did any research on recent perfume selling prices, it seems she is either making up prices or purely basing her quotes on her opinion of what perfume values should be. If you like nice pictures and want to do your own research this is the book for you, but if you can buy it used for 5 or 6 bucks do so because that's closer to the true value of this book.
