    Pasteur's Pharmacy is one of the great Mecca's of the wet shaving world. Everyone who is a wet shaver and visits New York is obligated to go there.

    Pasteur's Pharmacy, I don't know where they are located but you can look it up.
    Keep your eyes open ny can be a rough place.

    They have two locations. I believe this one is the "Original."

    I can definitely also recommend pasteur's pharmacy. Definitely a shaving mecca. But do be aware that the aisles are extremely narrow. However they will let you browse all you want. One other thing to consider is bringing an n95 mask with you. The air quality on the East Coast has been horrendous due to Canadian forest fires.

    I didn't realize they had their own line of shaving soaps. Has anyone tried them?

    I am the Captain of a private Gulfstream, we suppose to fly in TEB two days ago but we delayed because of the smoke.
    I guess it is getting a bit better now. Isn’t it?

    I just sent a reply to Pasteur's-they asked me to comment on a product I bought for sale. Haven't been there personally though. I'd feel like a kid in toyland, I'm sure.

    I found some Aftershave from Saponificio Varesino that I was looking for. I am a Corporate pilot, I will be on duty the next 2 weeks, I did not want to be overloaded with a lot of stuff, but located many stuff that I will buy next trip to NYC that will be around 24th of this month.
    Will keep you posted....
