In honor of the IPBA 2026 Convention being held in Chicago, we are celebrating the wide variety of perfumes and vanity items actually made in Chicago. Explore with us the variety of fragrances and vanity items, many made by little-known Chicago companies.
IPBA Made in Chicago
It’s no secret that vendors of perfume and vanity items play upon our fantasies. This is an occasional series of articles on various youthful fantasies and themes explored through perfume bottles and vanity items.
While the public can view the images for each theme, only IPBA members can link to the detailed information contained in the Virtual Museum. If you want to see more, Join Us Now!
If your collection includes an item that applies to these themes, please submit them to our Virtual Museum, and we will add them to these pages. See Submission Guidelines.
