ACO....story of destruction

Post by malocchio »

ACO Rakvatten was one of the best aftershaves from Sweden,along with Aqua Vera,(recently discontinued) and Hega,who also made soap pucks and sticks at one time.ACO has just reformulated the legendary classic,and it now has the quality of dollar store splash from red China...What a shame,so many good ones gone and others cheapened to the point of uselessness.The new bottle now says "AFTERSHAVE",and the word "parfum" has been moved to the end of the formula list...

The puzzling thing about this sad story is that a lot of people must buying the stuff, since they keep making it.
