Museu del Perfum

Passeig de Gràcia 39

Nearly 5,000 scent bottles, cosmetic flasks and related objects. One part shows all manner of unguent vases and essence jars in chronological order, from a tube of black eye make-up from pre-dynastic Egypt to Edwardian atomisers and a double flask pouch prized by Marie Antoinette. The second section exhibits perfumery brands such as Guerlain and Dior; some in rare bottles – among them a garish Dalí creation for Schiaparelli and a set of rather disturbing golliwog flasks for Vigny.
