Perfume Museum, Perfume vessel exhibition in Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona, Spain.
The Perfume Museum presents a collection of 5,000 vessels, from ancient Egyptian vases to modern perfume containers, arranged in chronological and brand-based sections.
Founded in 1961, this museum documents the transformation of perfume making during Napoleon's era, when artisans evolved into small-scale industrial manufacturers.
The collection includes artifacts from Egyptian, Greek, Etruscan, Roman, and Arab civilizations, reflecting different approaches to fragrance storage through centuries.
Located at Passeig de Gràcia 39, the museum opens Monday through Friday from 10:30 to 14:00, with adult tickets priced at 5 euros.
The museum exhibits a perfume box that belonged to Queen Marie Antoinette and a scent bottle named 'Le Roi Soleil' designed by Salvador Dalí.
