Curious about vintage Veg...

[pennhead]

I have acquired a glass bottle (minus label) of what appears to be Lilac Vegetal. It matches the bottle shown in some of rummwa's posts (borrowed):

The cap is slightly different than what is pictured. It does not have the slight rim resembling an integral washer at the base of the cap. I'll post a photo later.

It's a beautiful bottle, a little over half full, and I must say, it retains all of it's original scent. I tried some early yesterday morning and it lasted to the end of the day! I don't think I care for the scent, but to each their own.

Not advertising it for sale just yet, but does anybody have an idea of a reasonable value?

Thanks!

Give me $5 and I'll take it off of your hands.



Just Kidding Veg Army!!

Now, the Naturelle Sec, that would be a different story. How was that fragrance?

That Naturalle Sec was subject to a recall by the FDA, didn't you hear? Send it to me as I am a licensed Pinaud Aftershave Disposal Technician.

Nobody has an opinion on the value of vintage Veg?

I used the pinaud veg in the early 60's,,,,it went on smooth,then left a sour,off note on the skin,I really love it before the artificial civet or whatever they add to it kicks in....I gave it up then,and never went back,I wish I could find a true lilac aftershave

Value? Depends on whether or not you already own a Hazmat suit.

Priceless, truly priceless.

Nope.

Looks like Eagle gave it the thumbs up, though.
