ReplyDeleteSounds like Narcisse Noir
DeleteI have a BEAUTIFUL frosted oval body lotion jar Bain Sacre made in France. The label is worn, but I believe it says "Caron Paris". Can anyone tell me what year this is from? It has a beautiful GOLD lid, I keep it my dresser to store jewelry.
ReplyDeleteHi, this is from the Parfum Sacre line from 1991, the Bain Sacre is the bath & body products.
DeleteUnsure why you say there are NO Caron vessels made by Lalique? I personally OWN a Large (~4")Nuit de Noel usual black flacon in the rounded greenish (can't remember what color its called right now) box that has the word "Lalique" inscribed into the bottom of the vessel via Lalique's normal acid etched process. It also has the usual matching number inscribed underneath the bottle in the far left hand upper corner & underneath the stopper insertion peg ;)
