bottle, Paul Duval (Aust. Pty Ltd)

Historical information

Paul Duval was an Australian company selling fairly inexpensive products although they were usually available from pharmacies and department stores rather than chain stores. They would have chosen the name Duval for it's "french" sound hoping to add to the prestige of the product. Australian manufacturers of perfumes and cosmetics tried using European sounding names to trick the local market into thinking the product was imported
