Woot! found voodoo water locally...
I went into the local CVS looking for some glycerin (no dice) and while walking through the aisles I noticed this:

For those wondering, I guess it got misplaced. It wasn't in either the shaving or ethnic sections of the store...it was in the acne treatment section :shrug: An at $3.89 for 7.5oz, it's nearly double what folks are paying elsewhere...but if I added shipping from out-of-state, the price seemed fair.
Scent: This one is easy enough to describe, but might get some getting used to. It's not offensive by any stretch of the imagination, but it's just....different. It's heavy on the cinnamon with just a twist of orange peel; it's a sweet smelling cologne/aftershave. When I mentioned 'different' I really mean it. Imagine yourself smelling like a box of those Hot Tamales candies or cinnamon gummy bears all day! I happen to like both of those candies, but when you associate a scent to something else completely different, it's hard to assimilate the scent to a cologne. I have the same issue with Col. Conk's Lime shave soap which smells just like lemon scented dish soap.
Burn: I haven't tried this on after a shave, but have heard reports that Florida Water puts bay rum to shame on the burn scale...I tried a bit on my face and it started to warm me up pretty good and I haven't shaved in about sixteen hours, so we'll see how it works as an aftershave...gulp.
For the uninitiated, Florida Water is used in the voodoo tradition to bring luck and scare off bad things...I have an interview on Monday, so I guess we'll see if it really works to bring extra luck! :)
