This picture, taken in 1973, shows Bardot sitting at her dressing table. Most of the bottles on it are decorative, but there are some real flacons too.
On the right there are two Guerlain bottles. The white container decorated with a blue floral pattern is the refillable atomiser of Shalimar, while the fluted one is the spray version of Shalimar eau de cologne. Behind them, the fan-like cap of the classic flacon chauve souris is visible, but it seems attached to a different bottle.
Jane (Gina Rodriguez) holds two Suave products from the Rosemary+Mint line – the shampoo and the conditioner.
Thanks to Emily for the id.
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.
When poor Professor David Pollock (Gregory Peck) hides in Yasmin’s shower, we can see a wonderful Guerlain flacon montre sitting on a marble shelf.
If we assume the front disk is navy blue (and that’s not really clear from the picture), this is the eau de cologne of Vol de Nuit.
There’s Pinaud Clubman after-shave lotion on Kelly’s dressing table.
Thanks to my friend Maurizio for the id.
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.
Marina (Victoria Abril) has a metal shelving unit in her bathroom: on it she keeps toiletries and a box of Balmain Ivoire de Balmain, a green floral chypre perfume created by Francis Camail and Michel Hy and launched in 1980.
On a glass shelf in Marina’s bathroom there’s a bottle of Rochas Byzance, the oriental fragrance created by Alberto Morillas and Nicolas Mamounas and launched in 1987.
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”.
There’s a bottle of Estee Lauder Aramis in Armand’s bedroom.
