Be a spectator in the IPBA Horse Show! Horses are used as a motif in perfume and vanity items and their advertising. Can you guess the message being conveyed by each horse? By each rider? Is it energy, power, control, sophistication, sport, strength, or wild freedom? Or in the case of men’s fragrances, is the message being conveyed masculinity, desire, virility, … or something else?
IPBA Perfume and Vanity Item Horse Show
NOTE: If you have a perfume bottle or vanity item that contributes to this theme, please submit it to our Virtual Museum, and we will add it to this page. See Submission Guidelines.
