Height: 11.5 cm History: In 1911, fashion designer Paul Poiret launched his own perfume house, which he named Les Parfums de Rosine, after his eldest daughter. A pioneer in the field, he was one of the first to combine perfumery with haute couture, conceiving his fragrances as an extension of his fashion designs. More than thirty perfumes were created under his direction until the house closed in 1929. A similar model is preserved in the collections of the International Perfume Museum in Grasse (inv. no. M0877.2012.39.1/2). Bibliography: Advertising catalog *Les Parfums de Rosine*, Imprimerie Robaudy for Paul Poiret, Cannes, circa 1923, model reproduced (n.p.).
