    Michael and Rich are high ranking officials in AVCL, and as such have already piad their dues, earned their battle scars, lost their women cause they don't smell as good as Will and Baloosh. You young monkey are still in boot camp. Now drop and give me 20!

    Got to pay the dues bro. Wanna see the battle scars? The AV war is brutal. Many casualties. RIP.

    A slightly positive undertone to his message. With enough pressure, you will change your ways.

    come to the light....

    So, you think Will and Baloosh smell better than the man who uses these?

    I think the fumes from your soap-making are getting to you, love! ;)

    That's a men's cologne? :confused:

    That would be like me having a perfume bottle with a picture of a bare chested woman in/on it. :rolleyes:

    It's actually A unisex fragrance with a clean citrus smell.

    No worse than the obvious phallic shaped bottle by Pierre Cardin.

    I'm not Anti-Velva, just Anti-Velva-on-my-face. The smell is fine, but it doesn't feel right. Of course, I haven't used the stuff for over 10 years, so maybe it's changed. Either way, I've found A/S I like much better and instead of the ho-hum smell of the AV it actually smells good.

    I voted pro, but granted I was thinking of the Frost Lime (and my father).

    I don't know what to vote...
    I won't use Ice Blue anymore, I used that before I started wet shaving, so it reminds me of bad times...
    However I did just order 6 bottles of Ice Balm, having never even smelled it, because something about a product being discontinued draws me to it, and someone described it as a citrus scent.

    I will have you know that Drakkar and AV is a great combo...

    Just wish they lasted longer.

    To me, the Ice Balm doesn't smell much like citrus, it's best described as a fresh scent--kinda like fabric softener sheets. Whenever I'm out of town and at a drugstore or grocery, I always check out the shaving aisle for discounted and discontinued goodies and snap up every bottle of AV Ice Balm I can find for my stash. It's wonderful stuff.

    The Avon PRO Sport ASB is acceptably close to AV Ice Balm, both in fragrance and function. If I ever run out of AV Ice Balm and can't get more, I'll just use this. Sometimes it goes on sale at $2.99 for a 100ml tube. Such a deal!

    My side is Anti-velva. Walk in the store and open one every now and again and am reminded of my side.
