Hey DF, It's some kind of mens smellum. Probable for the hair or maybe for shaving. The Reine is a river in France. so it's some kind of poof cream.

ahh yes, that is a very good site. I use to used that for writing spanish paragraphs for class. I remember b/c I used it to do a word for word translation and recieved a failing grade. [] Cool jar by the way. Do you think it's worth anything?

Nice stuff, DF. The little French pot is neat, not something that you will encounter often. Jim

Not sure what it is worth...but JIM says ya don't find em too often and he has not done me wrong yet so I believe him...I will call it a scarce find right now until I can track it down further.
