scent or booze ?

plug seems to be ground in, airtight.
height 8".

 

That's a hard one.

It appears to be newer as in mid century (I'm basing this on the applied color). So maybe liqueur.

I don't think vanity bottles were very common by the 1950s. If a vanity bottle, size would suggest witch hazel and not cologne.

Those are just my thoughts and I could be very wrong.

 

I suppose it depends on how much you like to drink lol

I tend to agree with clutteredcloset49. The bottom seems relatively unworn from the pic.

 

thank you. so probably booze, form of liberty bell or such
