(singular
is pronounced fak-TEECE)
DEFINITION: "Fake!" But to be more precise, a factice is
a bottle made for the purpose of display, not for sale. It is considered
to be a "dummy" instead of the real thing. Factices come
in a variety of sizes from small to giant. Most collectors prefer
the giant size. Factices don't have real perfume or cologne in them
(with a few exceptions); usually they are filled with a solution made
to resemble the real perfume. An alcohol or formaldehyde mixture is
usually used. The glass itself may be of the same quality as the bottles
filled with perfumes but the contents are not. Factices are advertising
pieces.
They
make a grand statement displayed on your vanity or anywhere that you
want to add a touch of glam.
