What were the names of perfumes popular in America in teh 30's and 40's?

I'm trying to find out what perfumes were considered 'class' scents at this time. Not Chanel no.5 but something along that line. L'Heure Bleu for example, was popular in the 20's - Fleur de Rocaille I know is one but I'm looking for others.What were the names of perfumes popular in America in teh 30's and 40's?
The 1930's saw the arrival of the leather fragrances, and florals, also became quite popular with the emergence of Worth's Je Reviens (1932), Caron's Fleurs de Rocaille (1933) and Jean Patou's Joy perfume (1935). With French perfumery at it's peak in the 1950's, other designers such as Christian Dior, Jacques Fath, Nina Ricci perfume, Pierre Balmain and so on, started creating their own scents.
