Yes, Billy's sonnets could have been written with Pinaud Clubman in mind....forsooth !!
Today's clubman consists of the heavenly Vanilla... so manly it makes feminists cry on the first sniff.
Tonight it will be a late shave, with a splash of Vanilla. I sleep better with the Vanilla than I do with the classic Pinaud :shrug:
AAHH, Clubman Friday again and I'm going with Eau de Quinine. A very good aftershave and hair tonic !!

Today calls for Special Reserve. A stout fragrance to stand against the falling temps. :beer2:
SR for the A/S this morning followed by a healthy splash of MEM English Leather cologne.
Dang boys, count me out of this clubman friday. Out of town and didn't bring any with me... How could I forget??
I was feeling like bay rum!!!
Aha! Sorry, but you reminded me to use bay rum today and it's good, as usual.
It was a Lime kind of day, with a transfer of modern lime in a vintage glass bottle that I picked up on the bay,,,

Why aren't we just petitioning Clubman to change the the name to HIRLAUD,
Blame it on Bongo,,,, he gave me heads up on a really nice bottle on the bay yesterday, very cheap $8.00,,, it was expiring during the Dolphin's game,,,, I got excited that we were finally winning & missed the bid by 15 minutes,,,,,:(
Clubman Friday and I'm going with Clubman Original....
Bursting with top notes of orange, bergamot and lemon.
A floral heart of jasmine, orange flower and geranium mixed with lavender and
a warm amber background.
HMM, sounds good to me !!

Not a great week for me and I'm a little down. Nothing like some Clubman Original to bring up ones spirit. :mexwave:
I was reaching for some Valcan after this mornings shave and then remembered Clubman Friday, so my hand reached further to the left and stopped on....
....The Veg!! :)
It's Clubman on this rainy day.
Classic and wishing you all a great weekend...

Here is a vintage Pinaud bottle sent by one of Pinaud's covert operatives currently assigned in the United States,,, code name Geezer; saved from the shelves of a small antique store out west. It was cleaned today & Citrus Musk was placed in it.
Today was a Citrus Musk day.

Gentlemen,
Today was an evening shave and with the it ended in Special Reserve.
I finished my tub of omega soap too. A goodbye to a reliable product.. Pair that with a nice omega boar brush and a Swaty edge... Truly a "Special" shave this evening.
Great looking bottle, Hirlau!!
As I have stated, that Bongo has created a world wide syndicate of covert ops who are always on the hunt for vintage Pinaud bottles. Agent Geezer covers the western United States,, I have the southern tropical area, but we are in need of an operative north of the border,,,:shrug:
Never underestimate the power of the Beaver ! :shrug:
Hirlau, this bottle was originally known as a "cask" and in 1933 was redesigned into a more
angular shape and renamed "casket". The difference between the two is minimal.
Looking at yours it looks post-1933 but I really am guessing :shrug:
Either way it is in minty condition and Agent Geezer is to be congratulated !!
thank you,,, the picture does not due it justice,,, the sides have lettering(labels) that are really sharp & clear.
