Louis Vuitton Encyclopaedia Trunk Humidor

-
In 1925 Louis Vuitton created a special trunk in its iconic monogram canvas to house a portable set of the Encyclopaedia Brittanica for the traveling scholar.

A later owner adapted the rare item to a more practical purpose, turning it into the world’s most stylish portable humidor.

The trunk was refitted to house 500 cigars in removable boxes lined with seasoned Spanish cedar along with a removable humidor in burled American walnut.

Measuring 36 inches in length (overall), this exquisite humidor is priced at $27,800 and available at Pullman Gallery’s, Kingstreet store.

Real vs. Fake Paco Rabanne "One Million"

"1 Million" by Paco Rabanne is one of the most common fragrances in the world, and commonly faked, mostly in the 100mL size. Here's the front of the boxes (fake left - Gen right) two differences really. The genuine box has a much shinier gold color to it rather than the nearly mat golf finish on the fake.

As you can see there is a color difference, the fake has a rosey tinge to the gold where as the real one looks like a lig
