Thread: floid question...

Victor:

Spanish Floid is not in bay rum's neighborhood. For that reason, you might not like it. If you like Old Spice, however, you might also like Spanish Floid. As for Lilac Vegetable, every shaver should try it as least once.

I bought my Spanish Floid from the Vintage Scent.

Regards,

Obie

thanks obie,

i have yet to order from the vintage scent.. but a semogue brush was on my "to buy" list anyway..

also.. on my last visit to the barber i noticed a bottle of gabel's lilac splash on the counter... and i've got to say.. i was not reminded of urinal cakes in the least.. i'll see how the pinaud offering works for me.

Spanish floid has somewhat of a sweet smell. It may be a little bit of a reach, but the closest I can compare it to is Trumper's Spanish Leather, which to me, doesn't smell half as good as T&H Spanish Leather, if that makes any sense.

Anyway, it's a good alcohol splash, but not much in the way of moisturizing properties. IMO, tt's probably the European equivalent of Aqua Velva, and if you buy it locally, is not priced much higher than AV. I don't know why the US importers tend to charge so much for it.

i think i will give it a try and buy the Spanish version.

thanks for your input
