Cloud Atlas (2012)
There’s a bottle of Biotherm Lait Corporel anti-drying body milk on a dressing table at Ursula’s.
The Riot Club (2014)
Harry Villiers (Douglas Booth) is one of the members of the despicable Riot Club. He’s a self-centred prick but he knows perfumes. He smells Chanel Coco Mademoiselle on Rachel (Jessica Brown Findlay), who confirms that’s the perfume she’s wearing.
Me Before You (2016)
When Louisa (Emilia Clarke) and William visit Paris, she stops to take a look at L’Artisan Parfumeur shop window. The fragrances on display have the old bottles, with the colourful labels; judging from the orange labels, they could be Séville à l’Aube, Fleur d’Oranger, Mandarine or Dzongkha.
Catherine Deneuve and Hermès (1960s)
I have no idea what Catherine Deneuve was doing in a Hermès shop window in Paris, but I love this shot. Taken in the 1960s, it portrays the French actress barefoot, acting like a shop assistant who’s taking a bag from the window for a customer.
Among the objects displayed, a bottle of Calèche, one of the most famous perfumes by the leather good fashion house. Created in 1961 by Guy Robert, it’s a very feminine perfume, with woody and white floral notes. It takes its name from a two-wheeled horse-drawn vehicle, thus echoing its logo (a duc carriage with horse).
Lilting (2014)
There’s a jar of Nivea cream on Junn’s vanity table.
Night of the Comet (1984)
There is a display of Cacharel Anais Anais in a mall visited by Samantha (Kelli Maroney) and Regina Belmont. The bottles shown include the stopper version, the splash and the spray ones.
The Savages (2007)
Mr Selfridge S03E02
Several Roger & Gallet coffrets of three soaps are displayed in the cosmetic department.
From top to bottom, they are Rose, Gingembre, Thè vert, Jean Marie Farina and Lavande Royale. The choice of displaying these boxes is historically accurate: the third season is set just after the end of WWI, while Roger & Gallet round au chaudron soaps were first launched in 1879.
Girls S05E04 (Old Loves)
There’s Dove Go Fresh Cool Moisture body wash in Desi and Marnie’s flat.
