Is there anything more divine than a beautiful perfume bottle? The kind of bottle that demands you don’t hide it away in the back of your drawer but bring it out into the light (but away from the direct light and out of the sun, because you don’t want to damage said perfume) so it can add a touch of glamour and gorgeousness to your room. We’ve been lucky enough to have the gorgeous BVLGARI Omnia range pass through the hallowed halls of Beauty Review, and each incarnation has left us in awe. Not only is the shape sublime, with its feminine curves and interlocking design, but the sumptuous jewel-tones of each and every bottle gives it absolute display appeal. So what are out Top 10 favourite perfume bottles of the moment?
BVLGARI Omnia
How can we rave about a product without making it top of the list? From Omnia Coral to Omnia Crystalline, Omnia Paraiba to the just released Omnia Indian Garnet, each and every bottle is an unforgettable and delightful reminder of the extravagant jewellery created by Bulgari.
Jean Paul Gaultier Classique Collector Glam Edition
An iconic bottle, with its feminine form, reached new levels of jaw-dropping gorgeousness when the Glam Edition launched in 2015. The pink glitter dress offering hints of old Hollywood sophistication.
Valentino Uomo
Whilst technically a men’s fragrance, we can’t help but fall a little (or a lot!) in love with the bottle. Between the gold branding and the spiked out bottle design, no wonder it won the Best Bottle Design for men at the 2014 Fifi Awards.
Marc Jacobs Decadence
It’s a perfume in the shape of a handbag. A beautiful handbag. One of Marc Jacob’s own no less. And it has a tassle. Elegant, chic, playful – what’s not to like?
Balenciaga L’Essence
For a feminine fragrance there’s something indescribably masculine about this, and we’re attracted to it! The bell-esque bottle with curves that meet straight lines, and that sultry dark round marble top… well, it has us in a swoon.
Juicy Couture Hollywood Royal
Much like the stars in the sky your eyes are instantly drawn to this dynamic bottle. It’s big, bold and brilliant. A pure showstopper.
Versace Woman
With bombshell curves topped with a gemstone top, this perfume is a statement piece, exuding the decadence and lavishness of the Versace brand, whilst also enjoying a sense of girlishness.
La Prairie Silver Rain
Amongst all the glass and gemstones La Prairie’s Silver Rain is a standout piece. A droplet of moisture solidified into a silver work of art. Stunning.
Viktor & Rolf Bonbon
It doesn’t matter which store’s perfume department I’m in, or how many other perfumes there are to peruse, this bottle always draws me in – with its gorgeously designed bow and sweet burst of pink, it’s eye candy for the soul!
DKNY Golden Delicious aka The Million Dollar Perfume
This is a one in a million perfume bottle. Encrusted in thousands of diamonds and nearly 200 golden yellow sapphires, and carved from 14k yellow and white gold, this one-off perfume deserves to be on display, but with a price tag that’s well out of reach for most, we suspect the lucky owner might be more tempted to keep it under lock and key….

I love that handbag perfume bottle - awesome! I have seen the BVLGARI Omnia in real life and they are lovely bottles. Would like to see one on my dresser some day.
