There are two fragrances on Courtney’s bedside table: the tall bottle with black stopper is Oscar by Oscar de la Renta, a white floral fragrance created by Jean-Louis Sieuzac in 1977; the round pink bottle is 1881 by Cerruti, created by Claire Cain in 1995.

The Cerruti perfume is historically inaccurate, because the film is set in 1987.

American Psycho (2000)

americanpsycho_bornunicorn1Patrick Bateman’s bathroom cabinet is one of the best ever featured in the history of cinema. He’s a psychotic narcissist who spends a great deal of time and money to take care of his physical appearance. No wonder that the selection of perfumes and hair, skin and body products in his bathroom is very refined and luxurious.

americanpsycho2_bornunicorneauxdecaronpure_bornunicornOn the middle shelf of his cabinet we can see the fragrances Caron Eaux de Caron Pure and Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme. The other products are L’Occitane Spray Coiffant (now discontinued), Phytoplage sun protection oil (old packaging) and  Phyto Men Eau Vigoureuse body splash (now discontinued). The white jar – by L’Occitane – presumably contains a face cream or a mask.
