    It's amazing to me ( unsurprising to you veterans of A.D. ? ) just where my addiction has lead me.
    I was SO innocent, "just a few straight razors......nothing more"

    Oh my GAD!

    Large purple E.P. with original bottle-stopper() is "Stephan's Lilac Cologne".
    Smaller purple E.P. is "Agua De Violetas" (Violet") Water.

    Fun isn't it?
    The older bottles go for about USD $15 around here when found. Maybe more with a savvy marketer.
    For some reason the Amber ones are always higher in price.
    Enjoy a glass for me!

    Many years ago I started in that direction but stopped quickly. I still have a bunch of old barbers type bottles. The old clambroth bottles go for a pretty penny. The koken bottles with the porcelain stoppers are hard to source these days with those stoppers intact.
