Pinaud Bois de France

[bythbook]

So... anyone heard of this?

My French isn't so good - I thought it was a mini 25mL - rather it's .25 LITER - 250mL! (For one euro....)

"Fraicheur de la lavande, du citron, et de la bergamote." It is very similar to Yardley Cologne. Nice.

I haven't been able to find it anywhere on the web - I assume it's no longer in production. I'll appreciate any information anyone would share.

thanks!

Never heard of it, but I'd love to try it!

These people have some really old cologne and after shave. I did not find the bois de france though.

Originally introduced in 1887 as an eau de toilette (from Pinaud's site). The original looks completely different than the one you have. It appears later versions were eau de colognes.
Sorry, that's all I could find.
