Hi Brigitte – No need to apologize! You're only adding to the information. So, what you're saying is there were two different fragrances issued in 1993 in the Blue and Purple Butterfly, yes? Mine, with the Beautiful Solid Perfume, has a bar code of 0 27131 04681 3. The one I own was made in the U.S.A. as stated on the box. Mine does not include the White Outer Box…only the original Gold Box.

Can you tell me if the bar code on your Beautiful Butterfly Gold Box ends in a 1 or a 3? That would possibly indicate the country of origin, with 3 being the US. Or…the difference between the last number of the Bar Code could also designate the country it's distributed in. 😮

I see in the upper left corner of your 1993 White Linen White Outer Box there is a four digit number of 7195. On the back of my Gold Box with the 1993 Beautiful perfume, the four digit number is 4395. Does this match your Gold “Beautiful” Butterfly box?

Does anyone know if there was a White Linen Butterfly issued in the US in 1993, or just the Beautiful Butterfly?

Again, no need to apologize. You're not contradicting me…just adding to the wealth of information on solids. Isn't it amazing!!!

The plot thickens….. 😕 Whew! I need a large glass of Bailey's!

Hi Butterflies – The same thing happened to me. One of the little round labels fell off while I was dusting a glass shelf. Like an idiot, I proceeded to vacuum it up. No, it doesn't necessarily mean the label is not original. Possibly the label dried out over time and separated from the solid case. I hope you didn't vacuum it up as I did. 😮
