Smug?...Damn, my heart pumps cold concrete for you. Smug? Perhaps. But not so smug as the Canada's "Own The Podium" campaign. The silence in downtown Vancouver was deafening after the men's hockey finals. But I am not the kind of person to rub it in their faces.<br /><br />I finally have ordered online two bottles of the once common but now hard to find "Eau de Urinal". It was, for one hundred years or more, a cheap aftershave/cologne found in nearly every barber shop. My last bottle was purchased in the late 1970's at the Longs Drugs in Laffingyet. The empty carcass is still around here somewhere, but I can't find it.<br /><br />No, I like you, have never been a fan of cologne or aftershave, but Pinaud Lilac Vegetal has a special place in my heart. At once it invoked images of haggard, of hard boiled press reporters, cheap, alcoholic, dicks for hire, and classy rich dames slumming dive jazz bars. Add to that the polar opposite fragrance of lovely, aged grandmothers bathed in the aromas of vanilla, baked goods, and lilac and you really have something. That is the Pinaud Lilac Vegetal I remember.<br /><br />I contacted a seller who claims that their Pinaud Lilac Vegetal comes in the classic, original glass bottle. I suspect they are lying, but if it turns out to be glass (and not contemporary and obnoxious polycarbonate) and filled with what I remember this product to be some 20-30 years ago would you be interested? It now comes under the name of "Clubman" Pinaud etc. which must be a recent affectation since my memory is of Pinaud sans "Clubman".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
