question

How can you date Guerlain perfumes accurately?
When did they discontinue the crazy op-art black-and-white packaging, introduce the slender gold-and-(fill in blank colour rectangle) boxes, then finally to gold?
What about the dark blue boxes with little fountains?
And the light-brown-and-ivory "wooden" boxes?
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

Octavian Coifan is an expert on Guerlain perfumes, bottles, etc. He has a couple of blogs -- try googling him. Can't remember the name of his blog -- maybe 1000perfumes.
