It was in 1854 that Louis Vuitton founded the house of the same name. Initially, he created travel trunks up to the flat travel trunk which would revolutionize the world of luggage. He will be noticed by crowned heads like the Empress Eugenie.
In 1914, Louis Vuitton opened the “Vuitton Building” at 70 Champs Elysées, the largest travel goods store in the world. After a first trial in perfumery in 1927, Louis Vuitton returned in 2016 with a dazzling “Louis Vuitton Parfums” collection.

It is precisely this minimalist bottle that we discover here, and for all the bottles in the collection. The glass is heavy and looks like an apothecary’s vial. The whole is topped with a black metallic cap highlighting the brand’s “LV” emblem. Its transparent base, thus revealing the dazzling color of its nectar.
