An alternative would be if there is a possibility to buy Puig Agua Lavanda in Charlottesville, Virginia. Does anyone know of a store in this area that carries it?

WTT for Puig Agua Lavanda (200ml green bottle)

I would like to trade for Puig Agua Lavanda in the green 200ml bottle. I can't locate it anywhere in Europe which is pretty strange since it is made in Spain. I have TOBS Avocado in the tub (half-full), Proraso SC (half-full), Musgo Mr. Glo and would add a Gillette NEW that is not in very good condi...

Caldey Islands "Lavender" is an excellent Lavender. Unlike many it does have some staying power. And the fragrance is a straight up "english lavender" EO scent. For the price it is an excellent product though my personal favorite "lavender" scents are Czech and Speake ...

It should be noted however that the lather has to be pretty slick, I don't think you can get away with this technique if your lather is too dry, at least not if you have some skin sensitivities like I do.

You're a braver man than I with the Slant... it's been a while since I sold mine and while I did enjoy the more 'aggressive' razors I'm sometimes shaving three times a day now... I know, I know... and without the mildness of the razors I choose nowadays I'd never be able to do it. Three times a day...

I was thinking of trying Taylor's No.74 Limes or Acqua di Parma. . . my Creed Vetiver 1948 is a good light "green" scent for the spring/summer, but a citrus might be nice to have around too. Was having the same thoughts today. I am going to check out Acqua di Parma next week. And I will d...

I don't care that much for citrus scents, but I like Harris Arlington and Acqua di Parma, but I only wear those type of scents when the weather is warm to hot. I think citrus scents are strictly spring and summer scents, at least if you have four seasons per year. :wink:

I was able to smell this cologne of all colognes today. Wasn't really impressed by the scent. I can't really describe it but it was not for me. Good to know that there are many expensive colognes I don't have to buy. :wink: Does 4711 smell very similar to it?

I was able to try some of Caldey's Island Lavender and boy does it smell great. I was tempted to buy it but opted for GFT Spanish Leather instead. But I will definitely buy Caldey Island Lavender next time I am there. Has anyone else ever tried it and could compare it to other lavender scents like H...
