I have the same bottle. Someone said it was a hair product or cologne but not sure. Think that was a guess from shape and size mostly. I too checked French/English translation which is no help. Maybe forerunner of cornHUSKer's hand lotion. Who knows.
Hi Stoney and Welcome -
I dug this same shape bottle with the center embossing only, earlier this year. After a little research, it seems that it was a 'dangerous patent medicine'. Yum - yum [:'(] and in a large size too. []
