MILWAUKEE WI - An 81-year-old Milwaukee man has sued the makers of Brut cologne after it ignited and burned parts of his hands, chest and neck.
Charles B. Lewitzke's case was filed in the U.S. District Court in Wisconsin's Eastern District this week. He is seeking unspecified damages from Helen of Troy Ltd., an El Paso, Texas company that owns and markets Brut, and Unilever Home & Personal Care USA, of New Jersey, a division of Conopco Inc., which had previously owned the product.
He also is suing Wal-Mart Stores East, LP, which is where he bought two Brut products, a lotion and deodorant spray. Full Story - Mens Vogue Magazine - Winchester Cigarettes - Drugstore
