Description
Box corners are torn. Fleur Defendue, a perfume bottle for Bourday, circa 1925, is a rare and collectible piece. It is a clear glass bottle with a composition stopper and a metallic label. The bottle is decorated with a floral design, and the label features the Bourday logo and the name of the perfume. Fleur Defendue is a French phrase that means "forbidden flower."

Fleur Defendue perfume bottles are highly sought-after by collectors.
Perfumes and powders may not smell the same as they did when they were first created due to chemical changes over time and exposure to light and air.
