Hey fellas. I have tried AOS Lavender aftershave and it is too greasy for me. I have oily skin and I need an aftershave that doesn't leave me greasy at all. I have GFT Coral skin food and I love it. I don't like the smell so much, I have gotten used to the scent but I loved the smell of the AOS lavender. Does anyone know of a good smelling lavender aftershave that won't leave my skin feeling greasy???
thanks
Hello, Ramusico:
You might was to try Agua Lavanda Puig. This is quite a refreshing cologne from Spain. Apparently it was one of Frank Sinatra's favorites.
Caswell-Massey has a lavender cologne. It's a hearty one, but all you need is just a little of it.
Woods of Windsor, while not a lavender aftershave or cologne, has some in it, plus bergamot and a few other goodies. It's an absolute delight.

Ohh, Obie. Just as I think my bathroom cabinet has enough in it, you have to go and post that. 'Agua Lavanda Puig' you say. Must. Have. Agua Lavanda Puig. :)
Hello, Alan:
Ah, yes, Agua Lavanda Puig. I found it quite pleasant. By the way, I have a short review of it in the "Reviews" here at SRP.
Now, mind you, I am an eternal fan of Spanish Leather, by both Truefitt & Hill and Trumper, as well as Woods of Windsor. Agua Lavanda Puig is a pleasant variation from time to time.
When ordering Agua Lavanda Puig cologne, please be careful not to confuse it with the after bath version that comes in a 25 mm. plastic bottle. I like that, too, of course, but the cologne, of which I speak, come in a glass bottle. I found the best prices at jbktrading.com and Bowman Beauty and Barber Supply.
Another lavender aftershave I failed to mention in my first post is by D.R. Harris.
Stay well.

Obie
Wait! Hold the train - Harris makes a lavender a/s? I've never seen it. Where can I find it? That is a must have! :)

Hello, Jordan:
Connaught.com, in the UK, carries the Harris Lavender. It's actually "Old English Lavender Water." I have used it for aftershave.
Oh, I failed to mention one more place that carries Agua Lavanda Puig is the Soap Bar. Owner Jacqueline is a delightful lady.

Mama Bears aftershaves are really good I can't say for sure she has lavender but she will custom scent it for you with whatever you want.

Just be advised that lavender essential oil is a known irrittant.
Did you use the AOS balm or gel? I find the balm a bit heavy but the gel is lighter and absorbs better. So if you loved the scent, but not the heavy balm, look for AOS lavender AS Gel.
… to some. As are most things.Quote:
