Judy (2019)

The bathroom of the London hotel where Judy Garland (Renee Zellweger) is staying hides two British gems – both by Floris.

The first bottle on the left sitting on the top glass shelf is a Floris perfume. Unable to tell more about the exact fragrance, but the tall stopper is quite distinctive.

On the bottom shelf sits another Floris product – the concentrated bath essence in the big pyramid-shaped bottle with gold stopper.

On the bottom shelf there’s another bottle decorated with what looks like a ribbon. If so, it could be a Penhaligon’s fragrance, possibly Cornubia, a spectacular white floral launched in 1910 and now sadly discontinued.

Thanks to Scentimentalist for the Floris id and Rocco for the screencaps.

Claws S04E05 (Comeuppance)

Cherry (Gissette Valentin) remembers the time in which Ann defended her by fighting with a prison inmate who was beating her down for a bottle of CK One.

Mentioning CK One shouldn’t come as a surprise, since it’s probably one of the most popular ever. Created by Alberto Morillas and Harry Fremont, this citrus aromatic fragrance took the 1990s by storm with its minimal packaging, flask-shaped bottle and unisex appeal.

Goodfellas (1990)

There’s the iconic dove-topped bottle of Nina Ricci L’air du temps on Karen’s dresser. This classic floral/spicy fragrance, created by Francis Fabron, was launched in 1948.

Next to it there’s another iconic bottle – the flacon chauve souris of Guerlain Shalimar, one of the most famous creations by Jacques Guerlain, launched in 1925.

On the right side of the dresser there’s a white bottle: the stopper has a gold band, which indicates it’s a Chanel body lotion, possibly No. 5 or No. 19.

Thanks to Ladiesofthepast for submitting this post and to reveur_etc for the Guerlain and Chanel ids.
