There are several bottles on the vanity in Charlotte’s bedroom, among which two Hermès perfumes.
One is on the left of the wooden table watch: it’s Equipage, the first masculine perfume released by the French fashion house. Created by Guy Robert, it was launched in 1970.
The other is on the right side of the dresser: it’s Calèche, another creation by Robert, launched in 1961.
If you’ve seen the film, or read the Piero Chiara novel of the same title, you’ll know there’s a problem with both of these perfumes: the story is set in the Lago Maggiore area in 1946, so the Hermès perfumes (launched decades later) are historically inaccurate. I understand why the prop masters chose them, though: they were popular when the film was made and their bottles are beautiful.
On the vanity there’s also a tin can of Borotalco Roberts talcum powder.

There’s Pinaud Clubman after-shave lotion on Kelly’s dressing table.

When Ricky (Antonio Banderas) breaks into Marina’s apartment, he follows her around. When they’re in the bathroom, he comments it looks like a pharmacy. But the woman doesn’t keep medicines only in there: there’s also a bottle of Chanel Coco bath gel.
Eight years later, this bath gel would appear in Carne trémula.
Turner (Mick Jagger) is a former rock star who lives in London’s Notting Hill with two women, Pherber (Anita Pallenberg) and Lucy (Michèle Breton). The famous scene where they’re taking a bath in the same tub features interesting products.
First of all, there’s a bottle of Hermès Calèche, created in 1961 by Guy Robert.
On the marble shelf by the tub there’s also a flacon montre of Guerlain Vol de Nuit (see the teal disk).

On the same shelf, on the right, there’s the unmistakable blue bottle of a bubble bath popular in the 1960s/1970s – L’Oreal Obao, the “bain bleu moussant”.
Guerlain, Caron and Jean Patou fragrances are displayed at Selfridge’s beauty department.

From the far left: there are Guerlain Mitsouko (in the flacon bouchon coeur) and Vol de Nuit (in the flacon rayonnant) on a tray.

On the glass counter there are Jean Patou Colony (in the quirky pineapple bottle) and L’Heure Attendue.
While I appreciate the choice of displaying these beautiful bottles, there’s a problem: Colony, created by Henri Almeras, was launched in 1938, ten years after the time in which the 4th season is set (1928). The situation is even worse for L’Heure Attendue, another Almeras creation launched in 1946, 18 years later.
Last, there’s a bottle of Caron Tabac Blond in a glass cabinet on the far left. It’s a correct choice, because this innovative creation by Ernest Daltroff was launched in 1919.
