Where do you think it came from?

I fell into the Pinaud trap as well recently.

Love the Clubman so much I started picking up the other Pinaud fragrances, as follows

Bay Rum: Excellent.
Vanilla: Surprisingly good; Mrs. Dan's fav.
Special Reserve: I wonder exactly who this is reserved for...not a fan.
and finally
Lilac Vegetal: ?!?

Words cannot convey my surprise at the brutality of the onslaught to my poor olfactory sensors. I wonder who actually wears this...then I know the answer: zombies.

Surely nothing living can survive the overpowering crush of "90 year old lady meets formaldehyde" that is Lilac Vegetal.

It is both entirely too feminine for me to wear and entirely too gack-inducing to even contemplate.

I am serious - if you want a bottle of this, you can have mine. I am too scared of the environmental repercussions to pour it down the drain.

Your screen name reminds me of a mafia nick name. Like 'Joey two times' out of the movie Goodfellas. When I worked out of Ironworker's local 45 in Jersey City, 25 years ago, there was a guy that they called "Ten to two" because he always stood with his feet in the same position as the hands of a clock at that specific time. A northeastern thing I guess.

It is a combination of my first name and a shortened version of my Italian surname. From a while back there actually is some "colorful" family history of the Italian-American sort, so I guess you've got a point!
