    Default Lavender after shave or balm.

    Looking for a good lavender AS or ASB. I have a few creams and soaps. But nothing to compliment with after. Any ideas Gents?

    I believe RazoRock makes King Louis and I believe it's Lavender. Can't speak for the scent itself but their after shave wax is great.
    I would also check into DR Harris splashes...I like them a lot. I prefer splashes over balms any day of the week

    Castle Forbes makes the best Lavender ASB... which just happens to complement their Lavender shaving cream. CF makes a variety of EDTs, none of which contain Lavender. If you're looking for a masculine EDT that goes superbly with Lavender soap and ASB, let me recommend Geoffrey Beene's "Gray Flannel" -- you'd think it's lavender-based, but it's not; still it just plain works... and is nicely "office formal" and well-established. My personal recommendation.
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

    My friend Carl suggested Lavanda. That is delightful Spanish cologne, especially in the summer. D.R. Harris also makes a lavender aftershave. Also try Acqua Lavanda Puig — sometimes it's a little hard to get — another Spanish cologne. Lavanda and Puig both are soft and refreshing.

    Aqua Allegoria Lavande Velours by Guerlain. I wear it sparingly, for formal, elegant, evening affairs (or whatever comes closest).

    Aqua Allegoria Lavande Velours Fragrance Notes (from Basenotes)

    Top Notes: Lavender

    Middle Notes: Lavender, Violet, Sandalwood

    Base Notes: Woody, Iridescent Lavender

    Agua Lavanda Puig is said to be Sinatra's favorite. Hard to argue with that.
