In one of the last scenes of the film, Maxxxine (Mia Goth) is sitting in front of her dressing table, ready to start filming a new movie. Among the skincare products and toiletries on the table, the bottle on the far left has caught my attention.

It’s a gorgeous bottle of Cartier Pasha de Cartier, a fresh spicy eau de toilette created by Jacques Cavallier and launched in 1992. As LePetitCivet has recently pointed out, this is a historically inaccurate choice because this fragrance was launched well after 1985, year in which Maxxxine is set [1].

On the far right side of the table there’s a jar of Pond’s cold cream.

Even in this case, the choice is not totally accurate: in the advert above you can see what the Pond’s jar looked like in 1985. In the film the jar has the new packaging, not the original.

[1] Prop masters never seem to get Pasha de Cartier right: you may remember I noticed the same mistake in the TV show Glow.
