What happened to the rest of the video? I love that video and wait for Veg threads just in the hopes of seeing it and I am not chosen.I think in Aftershaves, you're more likely to get answers from people who have actually tried it, and less from people who have not but are happy to share "what they heard".
Having said that - The Veg is a staple aftershave for me. There is a floral note to it, and lilac scents have been associated with funerals and bathroom deodorizers for decades. That doesn't mean that Lilac Vegetal smells like funerals or bathrooms, it means that the scent was pleasant enough that some people thought it would be good to use as a distracting smell for those arenas.
For me, the Veg is most strongly associated with a very earthy, peaty smell, like a forest floor that is really great. There's just enough floral to offset the earthy smell from being overpowering, and brings it up a level or two from a very heavy scent.
I don't care for it much directly in the plastic bottle and put it in glass. I think there is some reaction with the plastic and air which is offputting to some folks.
It's certainly not a universally loved classic, but it has been in production long enough to confirm that there are PLENTY of people who are chosen and who do like it.
Manufacturers do not continue to make what people do not buy.
+1I am not one of the chosen!!!
If there are any Canadians who are I would be happy to gift you my bottle that has only been used twice!!
The glass improved mine immensely.Joined the club today. Goes on like urine then devolves into a funeral home smell; reminds me of death. An hour later it has a slight sourish pickle juice smell.
I have 12 ozs of it so I’ll push on through. I’ll put it in a glass bottle as soon as one becomes available.
