These were typically used by store owners to decant drams (1/8 oz) into smaller bottles, which customers would either bring in or purchase from the shop. Dram sizes were especially popular during the 1920s-1940s as a cost-effective way to buy perfume. Stores often had their own small dram bottles for selling these decanted perfumes and were given free with a purchase of the drammed perfume.
