DKNY has teamed up with jeweller to the stars, Martin Katz to create the first million-dollar fragrance bottle. The new Golden Delicious scent will be unveiled in London today before being auctioned for charity via Facebook.

The apple shape flask has been adorned with a staggering 2,700 white diamonds and 183 golden yellow sapphires in a 14 carat white gold setting to make up the New York skyline, and that's not all. The bottle has been carved from polished 14 carat yellow and white gold and comes with a base for it to stand on, decorated with precious stones from all over the world.

The bottle will be available to purchase through DKNY's Facebook page. All the proceeds will be donated to Action Against Hunger.

Take a look at our pick of some of the world's most beautiful perfume bottles below (without the million dollar price tag).
