Empire of Light (2022)

Hilary (Olivia Colman) is trying some fragrances at a drugstore.

On a shelf behind her and on the one in front of her several boxes of Moara Shira Green Aire are visible.

On the shelf on the far right there are some bottles of Maurer & Wirtz 4711 Original Eau de Cologne.

The bottles right in front of her are Fabergé Darling, an aromatic floral fragrance launched in 1982, and J. Casanova Rumours, which she’s spraying in this scene.

Although I have found very little to no information at all about these perfumes, I can imagine they were quite cheap and popular among people who wanted to wear a fragrance but couldn’t afford to spend much.

Revolutionary Road (2008)

There’s a Guerlain flacon bouchon coeur on Milly’s dressing table.

Reading the front label is impossible, but I guess the bottle contains Mitsouko, one of the most popular creations of the Parisian maison, released in 1919.

On the left side of the table there’s a tin bottle of Kerkoff Djer Kiss talcum.

Thanks to signorina_misteriosa11 for submitting this post and to Caroline Louise for the talcum id.
