Thankyou for the interesting information JohnnyO.I never knew any of that.I think that I will give it a try.CheersIi
Depending on your skin colour it's ' flesh tone ' which, for Pinaud is a kinda mild pinky shade. Those type of shades weren't uncommon in the 1960s with Old Spice and others producing them with their own scents. The claim was that the talc allowed a matt finish to the jowls instead of a sheen. They fell from favour as guys became less formal in their turnout.

HahaUs wrinklies know ever so much interesting stuff from the past ... our real challenge is that we can't recall it !

Pinaud clubman is brut. Many here will say otherwise, but check out the ingredients list for both aftershaves. With the exception of one ingredient, they're identical.
A Super Model & a 50 yr. old wharfside prostitute have 100% of the same ingredients. Are they the same to your nose?
I'm going to follow your advice and decant it into a glass bottle.Great ideaBest thing I ever did for my Pinaud atershaves was to decant into a glass bottle. For some reason the plastic ones give off a bit of a funky aroma sometimes, especially after the level drops.
Massive fan of the original and The Veg. Currently got a bottle of Special Reserve that the jury is still out. Tried the Musk previously as well.
The Veg is probably the most polarising scent around but I love it. Both it and the original get used quite a bit in my rotation.
YMMV of course.
It turned up tonight pal.I put some on my pulse points & let it settle.I quite like it but not sure whether or not it will last on me.I hope so.Don't base your opinion of the scent on what you catch when you first open the bottle. Apply sparingly initially and give it a few moments on your skin to settle before judging it. Remember the Clubman was the scent originally worn by guys like Kirk Douglas and Robert Mitchum ( allegedly ) so don't be surprised at its' ' alpha male ' scent. It can tend to divide opinion, and judt wait till you move on to Special Reserve and/or Vegetal. Enjoy.

You are right about it having a sort of talc smell.Very good description.I'm quite pleased with it.I know they do several types but can't comment as I've only have Clubman. I want the others in due course except Bay Rum
