L'Effleurt by Coty c1912
L'Effleurt by Coty: launched in 1912.
L'Effleurt was housed inside of a Rene Lalique flacon that featured a molded glass label showing a woman rising out of a swirl of incense, which hearkens back to the origin of the word perfume, which is derived from the Roman, "per fumum", which means "through smoke".

Styx by Coty c1911
Styx by Coty: launched in 1911.
Carnette Guêpes Flacon:
The first flacon used for Styx was produced by Rene Lalique. The bottle is a vertical oblong pillar with eight raised lines, a flat base and a sculpted frosted glass collar representing four wasps arranged at the right angles to each other. The stopper was given a sepia tinted patina. The mouth of the bottle is very narrow at the center of the collar, closed by a thin sculpted stopper. This flacon model was called "Carnette Guêpes" (collar of wasps). The bottle measures approximately 5" to the top of the stopper. The bottle was fitted with an embossed gold paper label.
The model was originally created in 1911 for Lalique's own use and destined to be sold empty in his Maison under the name "Carnette Guêpes," but was also used by Francois Coty the same year for the "Styx" fragrance.
This bottle is catalogued and photographed in the book R. Lalique: Catalogue Raisonne de L'Oeuvre de Verre by Felix Marcilhac, dubbed the "Lalique Bible" by collectors. You can see the bottle on page 322 of the 2011 French printed edition, under reference "H" for Lalique's own "Carnette Guêpes" and on page 927 under reference "Coty 6" for his perfume"Styx". The Marcilhac comment mentions that the last Lalique bottle was produced in 1919. Once the Rene Lalique editions were no longer available, Coty had the same design produced at his own glassworks in France, you can see the bottle was still being used in 1923 via the advertisement I posted below. The Styx perfume was also sold later in various bottles.
