You are right, you can still find it at a few places online, but the cost is now 2X what is what is should be for that cologne. I have wandered over to a forum called "basenotes" which is focused on colognes. Wow, people get just as obsessed with colognes as we do with shaving. Go figure! ...

The blade that my wife shaved her legs with and didn't bother telling me. :lol:

I agree. Col. Conk has a great smell, mediocre performance.
The only other almonds I have tried is TOBS and Volabra and out of those Volabra is my fav.

Trying Sherry is on my "to do" list. I recently tried white port and I am not a fan.

I have not tried any Australian tawny port, I'll have to ask around and try to find some.
Warre's Optima 10 year was very good.
The oldest tawny I have tried is 20 year. But I plan to buy a bottle of Taylor Fladgate 40, for my 40th birthday. :P

Tawny Port

Any other tawny port lovers here? :D
I have tried to convert some of my friends but they all complain it tastes like cough syrup...
So far I have to say my favorite brand is Taylor Fladgate.
