1940s Snuff De Schiaparelli Glass Pipe Cologne Bottle, Sealed And Full

Chairish

$795

Schiaparelli’s Snuff scent is pure Surrealist mischief in a bottle. Launched in 1939 and named after old-fashioned ground tobacco, it turned expectations upside down with a glass bottle shaped like a gentleman’s smoking pipe. The idea was inspired by René Magritte’s famous painting La Trahison des Images and its cheeky line, “This Is Not a Pipe” (Ceci N'est Pas Une Pipe). That playful contradiction became the heart of Snuff, Schiaparelli’s first and only men’s fragrance. Originally sold in packaging which mimicked a tobacco box, it was a hit—and so iconic that new versions of the pipe bottle followed for years. The scent has been described as Chypre fragrance for men. Designed by Elsa Schiaparelli, it famously featured a perfume bottle shaped like a smoking pipe. A Chypre scent, it blends notes of lavender, pine, leather, and oakmoss. The fragrance was featured in the James Bond film "Thunderball" (1965), used by villain Emilio Largo. The offered example is sealed, and appears to be full.
