And cheaper per ml, but that doesn't take into account travel costs.

It's your basic Bayrum. I like Bayrum anyway. The only thing that would improve it is if it came in Sandelwood or Cedar.

How do you figure that? The 1 litre is $34(?) and the 500ml is $20. Or are you talking about the 1 litre, and I'm just confusing the conversation? While we're talking about Aussie shaving supplies, did you get your mail yet Ed?

I guess some essential oils could do that. Hmm, 1/2 a litre, so maybe 6-12 drops....

$34 with around $12 postage from memory, making the real cost around $46. $46/2=$23.
And no the package has not arrived, but it can take a while to get up here, I waited over a week for a razor from oz once.
