Bertae seems to have been one of those short-lived American perfume companies that utilized a vaguely French sounding name and only released one perfume, Narcissus. Narcissus, launched in 1927, was a line that included perfume and toilet water, face powder, cold cream, talcum powder and bath salts. The perfume proved to be very popular and was sold until around 1934.
Thanks for this info Grace, I just found the exact perfume kit from the ad above in a drawer at my mother in-laws house and I was curious about it. It's in 'ok' shape but hard to expect anything better for something that is 90 years old :-) It's in the original box too.
