I am thinking this is a VICs bottle by the Vs all around it and the mark on the bottom. Would anyone know about the year? And there was a piece of wire around the top but I think that was incidental to where I found it.
A Vicks product would be a good guess, and you're right, the wire is unrelated, there would have been a screw cap. I'd date it to somewhere between 1940 and 1955.
