Brilliantine
Brilliantine is a hair-grooming product intended to soften men's hair, including beards and moustaches, and give it a glossy, well-groomed appearance. It was created at the turn of the 20th century by French perfumer Édouard Pinaud. In English-speaking markets Pinaud's name is associated with the Clubman tradename in men's toiletries. He presented a product he called Brillantine at the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris. It consisted of a perfumed and colored oily liquid.
Brillantine was used as the French title for the film Grease in Quebec, Canada.
