Clubman Pinaud Lilac Vegetal After Shave Lotion, Botanical Musk, 12 Fl Oz

What he's worn for ever! Still smells the same.

I am hesitant to wear this every day, but for more formal, fancier occassions, I would not hesitate to wear this aftershave with my favorite cologne. At first, this splash is kind of overwhelming, at least for me. After about five seconds it diminishes to its base notes, which are mainly lilac and fresh garden vegetation. This scent lasts for a good 3 hours after splashing it on and you will be reminded of it from time to time throughout the day, as will those near you. The best way I can describe this scent is that it's "fancy" or "sophisticated". You won't ever get the reaction "ew, what is that smell" but you will get "wow, what is that you're wearing" type inquiries from women, at least in my experience :) You can always dilute this with another aftershave product such as a lotion or another, thicker aftershave, which is common amongst wetshavers. When I do this, I prefer to use this lilac vegetal, give it a few minutes to absorb, and then use a Proraso crema aftershave, or a Proraso Dioibarba (menthol) aftershave. Either of those will subdue the fragrance but allow it to still come through more subtly. Apply your daily cologne and go on your way. As far as this product as a pure aftershave, it seems to be a bit more harsh for me, but I have very-super-sensitive neck skin. My facial skin is in love with this, and basically all aftershaves, but my neck does not like it as much, unless I use a second, more lotion-y type aftershave afterwards. For that, I stick with Lubriderm Men's 3-in-1 lotion. Using both, I get the scent I love (lilac) and the soothing I need. Overall, 5 of 5 stars. I will subscribe and save again when I am nearing the end of my current supply :)

Lilac Vegetal is a Clubman classic. It's a smell unlike any other smell--sort of a mix of gas station meets, flowers, meets baby powder for a second. I'm not sure women think it's pleasant. It sort of takes me to old barber shops, cowboy movies, the guy washing up after work to go home, the everyman years back setting out for work. It sort of wakes me up for 5 minutes after my old safety razor shave. The scent really does fade out in about 25 minutes. I don't slather it on, just pour it into my palm, rub my palms together, slap my face--good to go. If you like old fashioned scents and are someone that shaves old school with a straight edge or double edge or want a man scent--give this a whirl. This like the original clubman have their own kind of power. I forgo Dept. Store scents for these cheap nostalgic face trips. Dept. store stuff--for suit and tie occasion, date night. This stuff is morning thunder, weekend afternoon thunder, put myself to sleep stuff--feel clean disinfected. Some dates used to really like these scents much better than expensive fragrances. Frankly there's no comparison..these Clubman / Pinaud Barber shop scents are for those in the know.

Lilac Vegetal aka "The Veg"; a long-running/historic aftershave in the wet shaving world. Yet never has an aftershave had so many loyal fans & even more loyal haters. It was a 50/50 shot whether I'd like this or not, & worst case scenario I'd only be out $10 if I found myself on the hater-side of the spectrum. When it comes to the performance & scent of a product, you really don't know until you go & try it for yourself. I'm very surprised to say that I'm a fan of "The Veg"! Sure, it doesn't beat out some favorite artisan aftershaves in my collection, but it's solid enough that it has found a spot in my shaving rotation. Performance-wise, Lilac Vegetal felt great on my skin after shaving. There's a mild-medium alcohol burn, & it left my skin feeling smooth & not dried out. Scent-wise, to my nose & with how this juice reacts to my skin... it kicks off pretty strong with its floral/vegetative fragrance, but that dissipates pretty quickly. As the scent continues to mellow out, what remains is a light floral smell (like the ambient air in a flower store/garden) along with a powdery/talc finish (common in all Clubman products I've tried). Glad that I decided to bite the bullet & give "The Veg" a shot. As I was hitting the purchase button, I honestly thought I'd end up disliking this aftershave & getting rid of it. I'm not the biggest fan of floral scents, but this stuff is making other floral scents start to grow on me (like my G. Beene "Grey Flannel" EDT). Take the Lilac Vegetal leap! You just might be pleasantly surprised like I was.

Package had leaked slightly but not enough to matter. Very happy with product!

TIMO/ESTAFA NO HUELE A LILA. SU OLOR ES DESAGRADABLE, DEBERÍAN DENUNCIAR AL FABRICANTE, SI PUDIERA LO HARÍA YO MISMA.

this does smell a bit like urine when you first put it on but after a few seconds it changes to a floral lavender type smell, nice to dab on now and again.
