More limited edition collector fragrance bottles, with the usual disclaimers: in most of these cases, the juice is unchanged, just the bottle is “special” (or not, as the case may be), and some of these may not be available in the US.
From Hermès, a special edition of 24 Faubourg: "A beautiful, limited-edition bottle of 24 Faubourg eau de parfum natural spray by Hermès is filled with the classic woody, floral and amber scent you've come to know and love." $169 at Nordstrom, size unknown.

The 24 and the green Loewe are alright, I’ll pass on the bows though.
I really like all those Loewe bottles…they did a great job. The Solo Loewe one is really nice too.
Let me just say that bows on bottles may be somewhat eye catching….but they get in the way….always. They fall off when you take the top off, then they get all bunched up when you put the cap back on… and after a while they just seem a little tired and raggedy. And really; slap a bow on it and call it “special” or “limited edition”?
I have a whole hugmungous storage tub of leftover ribbons from way back in the days when my daughter had extremely long hair and liked various and elaborate ribbons that I would make….I’ll send anyone a handful of ribbon lengths and you can make ALL your bottles special editions!
It is also supposed to be “special” because of the “rose gold” finish, but in all truth the bow obscures the cap anyway so it’s not all that noticeable.
yeah, yeah …rose gold ….I get it….be still my fluttering heart.
I seriously doubt this is going to have anyone rushing to buy.
If only it came with a charm bracelet and a vinyl flower. . . that would make it really special!
Ha!
The 24 bottle is nice, but I prefer the looks of the original.
The original is more romantic … & probably a better fit w/ the scent? They’ve done some really great LE bottles for 24 F before, but this isn’t the best.
I agree. None of the limited edition 24 Faubourg bottles have ever been prettier than the original. I really think it’s one of the prettiest bottles I own.
agreed. And I so enjoy 24 Faubourg. N-M has the body cream & parfum, which I’d love to try.
and Nordstrom carries the extras too…even better!
The parfum is like the edp….just a bit more intense. So it may not really be worth the extra cash……
HOWEVER…I did not know there was a body cream……
you haz my attenshun now.
The Jo Malone bottle looks like a designer collaboration bottle with Tommy Hilfiger 😛
SO true!
Put a bow on it! (If you’ve heard them say “Put a bird on it!” on Portlandia) 🙂
Every time I see something w/ a bird, I think of that episode 🙂
