I've heard that said of Lilac-vegetal more than once. It's a great but strong scent and to appreciate it use only a little. If you use too much it will indeed smell awful but if you use only a little it's awesome.Well whatever it is rest assured that it's just you
I have never detected this "aroma" you are talking about neither the thousands of men that use Pinaud products.
Pinaud BR is one of my favourites.
