Naissance Shalimar Guerlain c2009 Limited Edition Presentation

Serge Mansau created a superb limited edition sculpture featuring 5 vintage 1930s Baccarat crystal Shalimar flacons resting inside of a plexiglass slab. Four of the flacons are empty and are fixed inside the slab, and only one is full of freshly made parfum extrait in a 20ml size and this one is loose so that it can be removed for applying the perfume. Only 19 examples of this limited edition set will be sold in Guerlain boutiques around the world. 

The limited edition is known as "Naissance Shalimar Guerlain" and represents the birth of Shalimar.

Shalimar Eau de Parfum c1999 Limited Edition Flacon

Shalimar 1 oz Eau de Parfum Splash in limited edition cobalt blue crystal. This may have been a special edition for Christmas that year. I am unsure of the bottle's manufacturer, I believe it is Pochet et du Courval, I do know that it is not a Baccarat flacon. It stands 4" tall. Has a clear label on base "Guerlain Bottle made in France", also has contents information on a secondary label. 

It is a pretty rare bottle.
