Perfume: Imperial Dell Oro Lime Cologne, Rare

Rare Imperial Del Oro "Imperial Lime" Cologne for Men.

An iconic piece of mid-century American grooming history. This vintage collectible features a remarkably eye-catching splash bottle beautifully decorated with a 22K gold splattered motif over clear amber glass.

It comes complete with its bold black screw-top cap and the distinct original round black and gold foil labels fully intact on the body.

Original Intended Use: Men's grooming cologne and aftershave splash.

Alternate Suggested Use: Mid-century vanity display piece, retro barbershop décor element, or a gift for a vintage fragrance collector.

More Details

The cologne is accompanied by its highly sought-after, original lime-green textured presentation box showcasing the classic Imperial Del Oro equestrian crest logo. 

The splash bottle contains approximately three-quarters (75%) of its original product, with the liquid remaining clear and clean. This is a brilliant shelf-display piece for collectors of mid-century vanity items or classic barbershop memorabilia.

Did you Know?

Imperial Del Oro was produced out of Long Beach, California during the 1960s and 1970s.

The brand became famous for its luxury aesthetics, using actual 22K gold overlay detailing on its glassware to make its bottles stand out as luxury statement pieces on vanity counters. 

Vintage citrus-based formulas like "Imperial Lime" from this era are highly prized because complete sets with the original outer presentation box are increasingly difficult to find in the resale market.

Origin & Era

Made in the US, 1960s – 1970s.

Dimensions

Approximate Dimensions: Height 15.5 cm, Length 4.5cm, Width 4. cm, Volume 59.15 ml (Original 2 fl. oz. / Approx. 44.36 ml remaining).

Vintage Condition

Pre-owned vintage condition.

Minor age-related wear. Light shelf-wear, minor edge rubbing, and superficial aging marks on the outer cardboard presentation box. The 22K gold overlay on the bottle shows minor vintage flaking, light tarnishing spots near the base, and small patches of gold loss along the sharp vertical glass seams/corners as pointed out in the close-up images. Scent longevity may vary slightly due to the vintage nature of the liquid.
