    Since i tried the cream i figured it just wouldn't be OK if I don't buy some AS also.

    I picked up a small bottle of the stuff fo about 2$ more or less. Out of the bottle it smells awful, like chemicals, and medicine. But after a few minutes when it settles it becomes wonderful, flowery and sweet but in manly kind of way :D , a classical scent indeed, and then i read the ingredients list, and saw it contains among others: camphor, geraniol, eugenol, citronellol and menthol. The scent was really surprising for me because usually when people talk about it they mention old folks and repugnant aroma of it's upper notes.
    The feel on the skin is excellent , a short, mild alcohol burn and then soothing and cooling. It's known for it's excellent effects on the skin (alongside with the smell :D ).
    When I use it up I'm definitely getting the bigger bottle.

    Where did you buy it? For 2$? I search for it for a long time but Ebay is too expensive...

    I'm sorry but i doubt you will find it on the bay. I've never heard of it outside the countries of former Yugoslavia. The closest to it is the "swiss" Pitralon original, (Ralon is made under licence from Pitralon in former East Germany way long ago) Pitralon lacks the camphor which makes the smell a lot less pungent in the beginning but it misses a lot in the skin care. I've tried Pitralon original, the smell is more pleasing but that wonderful sensation on your face you get from the cheap Ralon is just not there.
