    Been hearing 'bout Clubman and seeing it a lot on 'SOD' for a long time now. Curiosity finally got the best of me and I ordered a bottle yesterday. I've been using Witch Hazel as an AS for 6 years now and decided I would reward myself with a little luxury.

    I can't find an older LV bottle at present, don't know if it even exists ?....I'm just finding out that glass seems
    to make the E.P. stink better than plastic, but this could be a symptom of my OCD-collecting
    A case in point:
    GAD !! ...........

    Tell you what, the first time I bought a big bottle (plastic) of Clubman, at a local 'beauty supply', I hated it. Being as I'm cheap I used it anyway, and it grew on me ........ figuratively speaking. Same place I bought a bottle of Lilac Vegetal. Smells like rotting garbage to me initially but I got to like it too. Found a big bottle of Bay Rum, called 'Black Magic.' Hated it too but at $4.50 for a big bottle ........ it was under the sink for six months or more, until I ran out of my Pinuad Bay Rum. Got it out and found I like it. Strange these A/Ss ....... or maybe its just me that's strange.

    Tried Virgin Bay Rum last Sunday, dear lord that stuff burns like a m*f*! But in the end it leaves a caring and comfortable skin.

    I've mentioned this practice before. Mine are getting low as I like to add Mine to a sink full of water for a refreshing after work splash . It's awesome. Special Reserve has been my long time favorite.Name:  001.jpg

    Just a quick update, it's been over two weeks and the vintage LV bottle is stuck in the States for some reason.
    I do have a Pinaud "Rapid Tan" bottle with the labels falling off, so I decanted the veg into this....
    I have good quality reproductions of the original veg labels (without barcodes) so I'll think about this as a solution.
