hi hope,
i have searched what few books i have on perfume and dont come up with much on your bottle. i did run across a narciss bottle listed as a basket weave design with a value of around $15. if i was to guess at the age i would say late 1920's early 30's ??
i really like the embossing, and i think it would be a better bottle to a collector than the basket weave pattern!! to the best of my knoweledge we dont have any perfume experts here.. ?? . wish we did!! very nice!! thanks for the pictures!!

DiggerJeff,

Yes , I fell hard for the butterfly on the flower pattern.

When I looked a little closer (without my contacts in) at the bottom of the label I see the word BATEL.

I also can see the number 1 on the bottom of the bottle.

I'm not sure if that helps with the ID

Thanks! Hope

I'd guess it's French because of the Parfum spelling. and the shape appears to be a "coffin."
Have dug similar BIM examples with a dragonfly embossed where the butterfly is...in two sizes...one a miniature.
