    Default Aftershaves with a heavy lavender component

    I have been using Yardley English Lavender soap a lot lately. I've also noticed that Old Spice(p&g) matches well with it. I don't know if that means it has a lavender component to it, but I'd be willing to bet it does.
    Any of you know an aftershave or cologne that has a good lavender component to it? $15 limit on price.
    Thanks.

    Geoffrey Beene Grey Flannel -- it's got no lavender in it, but boy does it ever go well with my QED Anise & Lavender shaving soap! I cannot recommend it strongly enough.
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    Thanks. Stuff that plays well with lavender works, too. But I'm really looking for lavender based scents, because I have discovered I really like them.

    I don't know of an aftershave specifically under $15, but here are a few ideas.
    Disclaimer: I live close to WestCoastShaving.com and the prices are theirs.

    $8 or under
    Thayers Lavender Witch Hazel (technically an aftershave, and you could use it before applying any suggested aftershave or cologne)

    Pinaud Clubman Vanilla After Shave Lotion includes lavender (Not what I'd call a lavender scent, but it goes good with a lavender shave cream, AND it and is under $15)


    For $20
    RazoRock Aftershave Lotion 120ml - King Louis Lavender (never tried it)

    Jack Black Post Shave Cooling Gel is Aloe, Sage & Lavender (never tried it)

    About $30
    Taylor Of Old Bond Street Mr Taylor Cologne has lavender top notes (Love the scent)

    Yardley English Lavender EDT (Enough said)

    Thayers is good stuff and I use it as an aftershave sometimes. The lavender scent stays on me for a while.

    I use the Jack Black gel on occasion, it has lavender, but I don't notice it.
