    Default Royal A.S.

    The wife found this stuff in a magazine. Said its been around for 100 years. Anyone know anything about it? If she's willing to order me some I'll go for it but if its junk then I'll stop her. And if you have used this, what scent did you enjoy the most. Looked like they had 5 or 6 different scents.

    Yes it has been around for a long time. Pricey stuff, sells for around $50 for an 8oz bottle. The Bay Rum is very good. The Lime is powerful stuff as is the orange. You put either of those two on and you smell like an orchard the rest of the day.

    it used to be the distributor for the stuff in N.J used to run a sale twice a year around Xmas and fathers day where you could get 4 8oz bottles for like $20 a bottle but you had to buy 4. I don't remember her name or address sorry.

    Had the wife look into it a bit more. She changed her mind. four .29 oz. samplers bottles for 35 bucks. Or 40 bucks for a 4oz bottle. Plus its not A.S. its Cologne. Thanks for the reply thebigspendur.

    My wife really likes the vetiver scent. They have a wood and spice that I would like to find. It is pretty pricey in Canada compared to the US. I believe one of the Canadian online shops has recently started cayying it. Next time I order some stuff I will likely get some of each.

    It's advertised as an all-pupose lotion, a combined aftershave and cologne. I enjoy using Mandarin, as I have quite a few orange scented soaps, but there aren't many orange scented aftershaves. Lime is too potent for me, but I'm tempted to try their spice scent.
