Estee Lauders Private Collection. This sealed one quarter ounce ounce perfume in a bottle made in France is from the 1975 and it is EXTREMELY RARE. Over fifty years ago, in 1973, Estée Lauder launched Private Collection, a rare and precious fragrance worn only by Estée Lauder herself, until now. ” Estée noted, “I’m presenting it as I would a jewel, elegantly bottled in a replica of my personal crystal perfume decanter, and accompanied by my personal calling card. These personal touches, along with boxes wrapped in a facsimile of Mrs. Lauder’s buff and blue writing paper and a bottle undisturbed by label or logo, added to the quality of the packaging. The rich, warm, and distinctive fragrance launched at Saks Fifth Avenue. Basil, Galbanum, Patchouli Notes. FRAGRANCE TYPE: Floral Green. TOP NOTES: Green Accord (Basil, Tarragon, Galbanum).
