    Hmmm, I didn't know there was a club. It must be super secret. Is there a secret handshake??

    Well it's really not a secret handshake. You have to pour some of the Avon Spicy on to your hand, then touch the tip of your nose, then shake.

    A few days ago I got Avon Friktion aftershave. It’s from 1999/2000. BFC44BFF-F3D9-4160-9BA3-D99F4C2E644E.jpeg

    Where does the aftershave come out from?

    Unscrew the head. The aftershave is in the green handle.

    Yes, what Steve said. Grab a hold of the plastic big DE head and twist off.

    Avon
    "Island Lime"
    "Super Cycle"
    4oz.

    It was a No-Brainer. It looked new, and cost $9.96 including shipping. Great scent.

    A few days ago I ordered a NOS bottle of Avon American Classic. Anyone familiar with the scent of this one? I picked it up because I never seen this Avon before. E612D547-73FA-4A3E-B3E6-243D6E6B3BDE.jpeg

    Thursday mail call is a 1987 Avon Signet aftershave; it appears to never have been used. 30A504ED-04F9-4828-86AF-5DDD8517E83F.jpeg

    American Classic has a very green, woodsy scent to it. Signet is a floral barbershop.

    Does Avon still produce products for men? If so, any recommendations.

    Thanks for the shoutout Paul. Avon does make some modern EDTs that splash on like an aftershave; I currently own Black Suede and Mesmerize in their modern versions. They are quite nice. I also believe they make Wild Country EDT still but I’ve only had the pleasure of the vintage formula. Avon’s modern day EDTs would work well as an aftershave splash.

    They also make an aftershave balm of their popular scents. I’ve never tried them because I’m not a fan of balms. They do make liquid body washes for men; again based on their popular scents.
