Abstract

Fluid product reservoir having a neck defining an opening, the neck having an upper annular edge defining an outer ridge and an inner ridge, the opening being defined by an inner wall connected to the upper annular edge by the inner ridge. At least one cutout is provided at the upper annular edge, this cutout extending on the inner wall, interrupting the inner ridge, but does not extend as far as the outer ridge, such that the upper annular edge is continuous over its entire periphery, including at the cutout, this cutout further forming a base defining a ridge with the inner wall of the opening.
