					3d transform
 
select the cylinder tool thingy....
 
make a cylinder shaped like your bottle
 
rotate the cylinder to line it up with the text like you want....
 
then presto.......either it works or doesnt           
I don't really like that tool, but I have used it before.
 
Good luck....maybe someone can tell you a better way

					Alltough the following tutorial might be a bit too far fetched for 'just' a text it might come in handy
 
It uses Illustrator and photoshop, using the powerfull smart objects functionality

(think Reyrey has posted this a couple of weeks ago, and it has saved my life a couple of times allready    )
