This singular piece unites past and present in one vessel. Commissioned for Her Scent of Mystery (2025), the flacon has been handcrafted by Australian glass artist Mark Eliott as an homage to cinematic perfume history. Its form draws on an illustration of the original fragrance’s bottle from the film’s premiere booklet while carrying a sculptural elegance, bridging the era of Smell-O-Vision with today’s revival.
This flacon houses two fragrances:
Her Scent of Mystery (2025), perfumer Marissa Zappas’ interpretation that restores the vitality and radiance of the lost scent, peeling back six decades of oxidation to suggest how the perfume would have originally unfolded.
A preserved sample of the oxidized original Scent of Mystery (1960) by Raoul Pantaleoni, safeguarded and generously shared by Susan Todd, daughter of the films producer Michael Todd Jr. This rare artifact forms the very heart of the exhibition and is the last known surviving trace of the perfume as it appeared in Smell-O-Vision’s debut.
This is a single edition per run of the exhibition, available for acquisition exclusively through Snivure.
Please note that this bottle is a smaller size than the exhibition’s main hero bottle and does not come with the unfurling case.
This limited edition will ship in late October / early November (after the exhibition ends).
