Indeed, you are able to find some really cool bottles. I think the purple-tinted bottles are my favorite so far.
The raised circle between Pinaud and Paris seems to be on all of the bottles. Is that where a sticker would have been?

I found quite a few old aftershave and tonic bottles from different makers at a local pawn shop, but they were all missing the caps. I think I would have bought them if they weren't missing. I've seen other ones before as well, but they too were missing the caps. Seems common for the caps to be missing.

Mate, from what I've been able to deduce, the answer is "sometimes".
The embossed side is actually the back or rear, of many E.P. bottles.
I'm gathering as much photographic evidence as I can and will put up an article of sorts in a few weeks.

Bongo,,, I actually thought about you when I was in one of the local antique stores. There were lots of bottles around,,, so I looked at each hoping to find you one I could send you,,, but all were either steak sauce, beer, medicine , or chemistry bottles,,,, not a single cologne bottle,,,I'll keep my eyes open for one.

Thanks Mate, that's very nice of you
