Aqua velva

A Plisson and no glass bottle of AV I guess they don't sell American glass at the Paris Saint Germain Shaving Store huh. Well I've turned into a Booster man , if you want this glass bottle , got it from Walmart some years back, I can send it to ya. Let me know if you want it, it just sits in the den.

 

I Agree! I like the Jovan over the AV Musk!

 

Truth be told Hanzo, till last year my kit wasn't anything to write home about, I had to use a knockoff of AV called Swan. I was king of the cheap shave on that other forum with the largest social group known as the "Dollar General Shave" before I deleted it and asked to have my account banned. As you can see in the pic, this was my gear for over a year


I'm sure you can understand why I ditched the AV when I finally got paid.

I think my CVS has some of the glass bottled AV left covered in dust, if not I will take you up on your offer!

Oh, and I still have much love for the combination

 

I remember the Penny Pinchers Shavers subforum well , it was the only one I joined and enjoyed, always dispensed excellent leads on shave stuff and with that one shavers could talk about goods they could actually get . Since then the vendor explosion and more imports have brought prices way down, availability is more widespread .

 

They changed the formulation of the Aqua Velva when they switched from glass to plastic bottles?

 

No, it's the same.

 

Aqua Velva Ice Blue is the one aftershave that will Always be in my den, it just has a timeless quality that I love.

 

I like AV Original Sport (Green) as a cooling body splash for hot days

But for my face, I use AV Ice Balm

 

were do you get ice balm?

I saw it at a drug store once, but didn't pick it up because I thought it was too expensive. I found it here too: http://www.medshopexpress.com/085289.html

Nice Humidor!

 

Thanks, it was empty :happy102

 

looking into tryin some of this for the first time

 

I wish whoever makes AV would realize what a sales boon they'd have (probably) if they reintroduced truly manly scents like the old Redwood and others to complete with the Axe-type crap sold today.

 

You ain't kidding. I had a tiny 1.75 oz bottle of Redwood (couldn't stand the smell) that I sold on the bay a few weeks back. I did well to put it lightly. There is money in it even if it isn't for rare scents.

 

I've never smelled it but I do like woodsy scents...do you think the bottle was off, or it just never smelled very good at all?
