[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 259704, member: 2844"]You're right, except they are rose water sprinklers (not shaken, not stirred;)). In the Middle East and other parts of Asia and North Africa guests are traditionally welcomed by sprinkling rosewater, as a sign of hospitality. In some regions incense is used. Bourjois is French, and because of France's colonial history they also made products for the Middle Eastern market. Bourjois is still an important cosmetics and perfume name in the Middle East, the main reason why Coty bought Bourjois a few years ago.[/QUOTE]
