hoping someone can share an opinion about this perfume; I believe it to be old, possibly french? the stopper bottom and bottle base both have a number 8 in gold, and then there is a number 107 very lightly etched on the base as well. Bottle with stopper in is just a hair over 6 inches tall - each of the protrusions have a blue star on them; really neat.
Thanks!
