BOURDON FRERES
PARIS
Bourdon Frères was an internal division of Etablissements Poulenc Frères, active from 1881 until 1928, when Poulenc merged with Société chimique des usines du Rhône to form the Rhône-Poulenc group.
The bottle therefore dates from the end of the 19th century until 1928, when the brand disappeared.
