What has happened to the legendary Italian splash Lavanda Coldinava ?? I can't find this stuff anywhere.The deodorant and sprays are around,but the splash seems to have disappeared...discontinued ?

Not discontinued as far as I know, just not very popular. I prefer Cella's Eau de Lavande or Atkinson's English Lavender/For Gentlemen.
Best regards,

I like those as well,and Atkinsons has long been a favorite,but the Coldinava has a different bottom note to it,unique among the lavandas.Vintage yardleys is great when you can find it...I ordered one small and one large from connaught.either I got the last 2 or there is a one bottle limit...a year ago you could find Coldinava everywhere,not now...

Scent descriptions are not my strong point, but Coldinava does have a smokey bite to it that so many of the other Lavender's don't. Love the bottle too! Oh well. Might place one more order before it's all gone.

Is it the same scent as the bar soap?.

The same Lavender oils are used for the soap, but the soap bar is milder in scent than the edt.
