Excretions from the anal glands of various mammals among them. For example, castoreum from beavers is used in both cologne and "new car smell" sprays & air fresheners because it has the warm tanniny smell of fine aged leathers with notes of tobacco and fragrant hardwoods. (The woods being the actual diet of the beavers farmed for this purpose.)

Castoreum is produced both from the excretions of the glands and from entire glands themselves.

It's a French scent popular with grandmothers.

Maybe that's what the guy was trying for and the sign maker just fucked up..."gee, Anus Anus, only one of those will fit on the sign..."
