There’s an interesting object on Deborah Vance’s dressing table: it’s the Vacances perfume bottle by Jean Patou – rounded stopper and three gadroons.

Sugar & Spice (2001)
There are several interesting beauty products on Diane’s dressing table.
The two tall bottles on the left are bodycare products by Bath & Body Works – Heart’s Desire moisture-rich body lotion and matching body wash.
On the glass tray on the right there’s basically a Clinique corner.
There are two bottles of clarifying lotion.
The aqua green jar with silver cap is Advanced Cream.
There are also two silver tubes of Dramatically Different lipstick.
Last, two bottles of Dramatically Different moisturizing lotion.
Thanks to my friend Jennifer who identified the Bath & Body Works for me.
Valley of the Dolls (1967)
Recent graduate Anne Welles starts working at a theatrical agency but soon learns how cruel and ruthless the world of theatre is. She’s ready to quit but changes her mind after meeting her boss’s business partner, Lyon Burke (Paul Burke).
On their first meeting she drops her handbag on the floor and one of her make-up items is left on the office carpet.
Lyon picks it up: it’s a lipstick. Funny how he immediately checks the shade on the bottom of the tube.
The shade is Barely Pink, a real shade by Revlon! It was part of the Colors on the Naked Side 1963 collection, which included “barely-there pales with a ladylike lustre.”
If you are into nude pink shades or are a fan of the Mark Robson film, you’re lucky: Barely Pink is still produced by Revlon.

Holy Spider (2022)
Somayeh (Alice Rahimi) tries a skin cream she finds in the bathroom of one of her clients.
On a shelf by the window there’s a bottle of Versace Dylan Blue Pour Femme, a floral fruity fragrance created by Calice Becker and Natalie Gracia-Cetto and launched in 2017. The blue jar with gold cap it sits on could be part of the bodycare line of the Versace perfume.
On the same shelf there’s another perfume from an Italian brand: it’s Florence by Roberto Cavalli, a floral fragrance launched in 2017 and created by Marie Salamagne.
Thanks to signorina_misteriosa11 for the Cavalli id.
L’immensità (2022)
Clara (Penélope Cruz) keeps a bottle of 4711 Original eau de cologne on her dressing table.
Ava Gardner’s Dresser (1949)
This portrait of Ava Gardner was taken in the late 1940s in the bedroom of her Nichols Canyon cottage in Los Angeles. Besides the Degas print on the wall and some framed family photos, what has caught my attention are the perfume bottles on the dresser. I have identified three of them.
One of the first bottles from the left is Lanvin Arpège extrait, with the square bakelite stopper. This fragrance was created by Paul Vacher and Andre Fraysse and launched in 1927.
There’s also a flacon bouchon coeur by Guerlain. It has been used to house several fragrances but this one is likely to be Mitsouko, one of Gardner’s favourite scents. This chypre fruity fragrance was created by Jacques Guerlain and launched in 1919.
On the far right there’s Fleurs de Rocaille by Caron. Housed in a beautiful urn-shaped bottle designed by Félicie Vanpouille, this floral aldehyde fragrance was created by Ernest Daltroff and launched in 1934.

Kate Moss’ Bathroom (2017)
I’ve always loved bathrooms and I’ve seen many beautiful ones in my life, but very few of them can equal the poetic atmosphere in Kate Moss’ bathroom in her London house. The bespoke wallpaper with anemone pattern by de Gournay is its strongest point, but charming additions are the vintage crystal chandelier from James Worrall, a Drummonds claw-foot tub and framed black-and-white photographs.
On the marble washbasin there are several products – two bath oils, one perfume and a skincare item.
The bottles with colourful ribbons are Penhaligon’s bath oils. The one on the left is Victorian Posy, a chypre floral fragrance launched in 1979 and now sadly discontinued; the one on the right is Vanities, another discontinued fragrance.
The white jar is Cosme Decorté AQ Meliority repair cleansing cream.
The bottle with ball-shaped stopper is Balenciaga L’Essence eau de parfum, a green floral fragrance created by Olivier Polge and launched in 2011.
There are lots of bottles in the mirrored cabinets above the washbasin.
On the top shelf on the left there’s a factice bottle of Prada Infusion d’Iris eau de toilette, created by Daniela Andrier and launched in 2010.
On the middle shelf on the left there’s Fracas by Robert Piguet, created by Germaine Cellier and launched in 1948.
Lalique Songe is shown in a 2005 limited-edition bottle.
The bottle with peach pink ribbon is Penhaligon’s Ellenisia, another discontinued floral fragrance launched in 2005.
On the bottom shelf in the central section there’s Christian Dior Dune, an amber woody fragrance created by Jean-Louis Sieuzac, Nejla Barbir and Dominique Ropion and launched in 1991.
On the same shelf there are a flacon bouchon coeur by Guerlain and two bottles of Chanel No. 5 eau de parfum.
On the middle shelf on the right there are some Etro bottles, possibly Heliotrope eau de cologne (old packaging), and two fragrances by Byredo.
Die Hard (1988)
Right after meeting his estranged wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) at her workplace, the Nakatomi Corporation in Los Angeles, NYPD detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) freshens up in an office bathroom. It’s nice to see there are two interesting fragrances by the washbasin.
There’s a huge splash bottle of Givenchy Gentleman eau de toilette, a 1974 fragrance created by Paul Lèger.
There’s also a regular bottle of Giorgio Beverly Hills Pour Homme, launched in 1984.
