I bought a Pinaud glass bottle off the bay years ago for my pinaud Clubman. All my other clubman scents are in repurposed Red Hot glass bottles.Where do you guys get your spare glass bottles?

I had some gift cards to burn up so I ordered a few more bottles of English Leather to make more El Dorado.Even better is Bootlegger's Eldorado which combines Special Reserve, Classic Vanilla, and Dana's English Leather to make one of the best winter time scents imaginable.
Great setup, and great choices, GlazedBoker! Cheers, sir!Lime Sec today. Really nice lime centric feel. Though I shaved an hour ago and splashed a lavish amount of this juice everywhere, I find that it is very light and almost fleeting like. The initial burst is really nice but, I feel like it’s extremely light. I know, Eau de Cologne strength and I wasn’t expecting all day longevity yet, the Citrus Musk lasted on me almost 6 hours with decent projection for the first 45 mins to an hour which is not bad at all. Maybe I just went nose blind to it rather quickly. We’ll see how it goes.
Nevertheless, still worth it to catch that lime freshness on application after a nice shave. For the $$$, it’s a winner.

You can find a lot of empty Avon bottles at thrift shops, but I'm at the point where I wash my old glass aftershave bottles and recycle them with new juice.
thanks!I use my empty glass hot sauce and soy sauce bottles.
I use these: Hot Sauce Woozy Bottles Empty 5 Oz Complete Sets of Premium Commercial Grade Clear Glass Dasher Bottle with Shrink Capsule, Leak Proof Screw Cap, Snap On Orifice Reducer Dripper Insert (Black 30 Sets) https://a.co/d/ia8OhPcthanks!
thanks!

I fell deep into a very specific rabbit hole with the whole "what glass bottle should I keep my Pinaud in?" question.
Outstanding, sir! Well done!@GlazedBoker

I have over 100 Avon bottles but "vintage Pinaud bottles" was the only answer I could accept for myself.

Not pictured with the group (since I don't wear these ones...) is the Eau de quinine & LV (not chosen)

...and since taking these pics, I have acquired a most coveted vintage Special Reserve bottle as well.

All I need is a bottle for my Citrus Musk, and I'd really love a genuine vintage Clubman 8oz bottle like the SR/Musk/CV shape.
Then I'll feel complete. Until then, the hunt continues.
Thank you sir!I've never thought to hunt down glass Pinaud bottles to store my Clubman products in - I usually just decant to a Boston bottle, but I really feel the urge to keep an eye out for them now. It looks fantastic.
Thank you sir!Outstanding, sir! Well done!
I regret to inform the Committee that after trying the Veg for the first time yesterday, I, sadly, have not been chosen. Cheers, all!Only by dousing yourself in the wonderful Lilac Vegetal will you truly know if you are one of "The Chosen", or if your voice will join the lamentations of those who are not Chosen.
Lilac Vegetal is one of my favorite Clubman scents. I wear it frequently and frequently receive compliments. Had I allowed the naysayers to steer me away from trying The Veg, I'd be missing out on a wonderful classic aftershave.![]()
Not everyone will be one of The Chosen.I regret to inform the Committee that after trying the Veg for the first time yesterday, I, sadly, have not been chosen. Cheers, all!
Great setup and a beautiful brush, GlazedBoker! Cheers, sir!Stirling Executive Man and then some Pinaud Citrus Musk to seal the deal. A very, very nice pairing if you ask me. The Stirling Executive Man has the Creed Aventus vibe and the Pinaud CM just compliments it so well that it sort of melds tailor made suit man with an everyday joe in flip flops smokin up some beef brisket or pork shoulder in a nice smoker. Think James Bond meets McGyver and it works seamlessly.
On a side note, I was at a local Marshall’s Home Goods store and picked up a few bottles to decant my Pinaud/Clubman products into. Pics to follow shortly….

I'm right there with you, Breen. Clubman Is one of my overall favorites, and so far it's only the Veg and Brandy Spice among the Pinaud scents that haven't worked for me. Cheers, sir!I am also not chosen, but every other Pinaud scent has folded me warmly into it's embrace, and I feel comforted.
Same here, friend.I am also not chosen, but every other Pinaud scent has folded me warmly into it's embrace, and I feel comforted.
