House of Bourjois (French, founded 1863)
Description
Round beauty powder box "Soir de Paris" (Evening in Paris) by Bourjois in the shade "Ocrée chair". The box is in blue tones decorated with silver borders and stars, and silver silhouettes of Paris sight seeing places on the sides. 

"Soir de Paris" by Bourjois was created in 1863 by the famous perfumer Ernest BEAUX. "Soir de Paris" suffered from a bad reputation when it was launched. Its light and floral notes made it pass for a perfume for women of small virtue. It was even nicknamed "love filter". But over the years, it has won acclaim. After a pause in its production, its makeover revived its success in 1992 with new sweet notes.
