Who was the first to use perfume in the world? [originaltext] Around 1912, per

Around 1912, perfume bottles featuring a topless woman’s profile set into a delicate net of silver curves appeared in France. The bottles of Fougere, crafted of blue-green glass, caught people’s attention, just as the fragrance within captured their hearts. Created by French craftsman Rene Lalique, such innovative bottles helped make perfume an essential female accessory for the modern age. Using new materials and designs, Lalique took the art of making perfume bottles further than anyone had ever dreamed.
   Perfume and the containers used to hold it date back to long before Lalique’s time. Scholars seem to agree that the Egyptians were the first to use perfume, mainly in the form of scented oils. The Egyptians stored perfumes in tall stone bottles with narrow necks, while the ancient Greeks kept them in hand-painted, animal-shaped vases. Later, wealthy Romans carried their most valued perfumes in hollowed-out precious stones. But until Lalique’s time, perfumes were always sold in plain, inexpensive bottles, then poured into higher-quality containers at home.
