Combined perfume product package and seed carrier

Abstract

A perfume or perfumed product which is associated with a package having seeds impregnated within or otherwise associated therewith. In one embodiment, the seeds are impregnated within or on, or otherwise associated with, the packaging material, and are adapted to be planted in soil to permit the seeds to grow. Alternatively, the seeds may simply reside in a pouch or other container which is disposed within or otherwise associated with the package, where the seeds may be planted in soil to permit the seeds to grow. The seeds grow one or more botanicals that correspond to one or more ingredients of the perfume or perfumed product contained within the package so that the purchaser of the product may grow plants that smell like one or more of the ingredients of the perfume or perfumed product.
