It's very likely that the image can be reconstructed from perceptual hashes. Perceptual hashes make two promises, too:

* that the original image can't be inferred from the hash, and * that similar images should get similar (if not the same) hashes

and these are in serious conflict, with what's happened with gradient-based methods the last 10 years.
