Secret Princesse Nefertiti by Babani: launched in 1937 (trademarked in 1938).
So what does it smell like? It was an Oriental perfume with notes of rose and patchouli. I have no published notes on this composition. I would need a sample to tell you what it smells like.
The oddly shaped bottle seen below with the black stopper was also used by Lawson for their Lavender Splendor Cologne in 1938.
