Le Roy Soleil by Schiaparelli c1946

Le Roy Soleil is a perfume by Elsa Schiaparelli produced in 1947, to celebrate the end of the World War by recalling the glory days of the Louis XIV of France.

The long-lost fragrance might have disappeared from memory completely, if not for its striking presentation, which remains firmly planted in the thoughts of many collectors. Schiaparelli commissioned the surrealist artist Salvador Dali to design the unique bottle. It was originally produced in a limited edition of only 2000 bottles and it is an homage to the Sun King.
