My favorite Pinaud product was Naturelle Sec I hated to see them discontinue it and use what I have left very sparingly. What are some opinions on it and Fleur De France. I still have my good old standby Lilac Vegetal.

Welcome to B&B!
I have wondered about Naturelle Sec and was wondering if you could answer a few questions about it. How long has it been discontinued and was it ever available in the plastic bottles? Can you describe the scent for us or maybe compare it to something similar? I have heard it was a lemon/citrus scent--maybe similar to the Eau de Portugal??
Also would you mind describing the Fleur de France for us? I have not seen many posts regarding this Pinaud product..
I also noticed in one of your other posts you had older glass bottle Lilac Vegetal. Could you compare the older Lilac Vegetal with the present day LV?
Thanks!!

The only way I can describe Naturelle Sec is that is a very clean smell like you have just stepped out of the shower with the soap smell still on you. I think it must be a smell from my childhood maybe some deoderant soap we used when I was a kid. Fleur De France, roses, roses, roses, roses! Naturelle Sec was available in the plastic bottle. About 10 years ago I was looking for NS in the drugstore I usually bought it in and they were out. I started looking everywhere and nobody had it any more, I started to panic then I thought of the internet. I punched it in and only found 1 place that had any left, 2 bottles, I bought both it was my first internet purchase. I could not smell any differance in the Lilac Vegetal in the plastic bottles, but when you pick them up to use them you can't beat the glass. I will try and set up a picture of them all and post it.

Thanks for the info.!! I am new to the world of Pinaud and missed out on the glass bottle era and some of the discontinued products. I like many of Pinauds current offerings especially the Bay Rum and Eau de Portugal.
Thanks for sharing!
