I did get curious about the Quelques Fleurs powder bottle from Ada that Alex Sklyarenko mentioned. I was able to find some boxes of powder dating from the '20s, but I just found a picture of a bottle of Quelques Fleurs powder. Try the following web site:

The label certainly has some colorful touches. Unfortunately the picture is quite small (see lower right hand corner of photo). There are some clearer pictures of the original label for this perfume on other web sites. http://www.rubylane.com/shops/kayzarkade/item/PMH1 is clear and can be magnified. The design is quite lovely and very colorful.
