Amber Floid Aftershave
Hi all,
Got a sample of amber floid, liked the smell & so did the frau but didn't like the coating of powder on my face,does the floid blue do the same??? haven't been able to get a sample of that but i can get a full bottle although i've read it's getting rare due to it being discontinued.

I have a bottle of the Amber Floid and not really sure what you're meaning..I've yet to feel a powder coating on my face with its use:shrug:
I love the stuff and SWMBO does as well :)
-
What do you mean by coating of powder is it just the way it makes your skin feel or does it leave a coating of powder on your face? I have both Amber and Blue and the Orange Spanish version the only thing different in them is the way they smell. When I first got the Spanish version it had a faint smell of baby powder but as time has passed I don't smell it anymore. My wife says the Blue has the powder smell but likes the smell of the Amber. It is to my understanding the Blue is to be discontinued.
-
once the aftershave dried and i looked in the mirror my face looked as if i had light talcum on.wet my finger & ran it up my chin & and you could see that there definitely was a coating on my face,loved them smell though.
-
Are you sure it wasn't dry skin from the alcohol as opposed to a powder coating?
I've never used it myself, but Catrentshaving was kind enough to bring his bottle and let me have a sniff :) I think I'll put it on my "must buy" list.
(Thanks Rob!)

honestly at first i thought it was dry skin,which i never get,it was like a white coating on my skin,i'll try it again but the coating kid of put me off it.
-
My other question could be where you got the sample from, meaning what type of container was it in or was there some residue in it?
I've used it quite a bit since and never noticed any residue so I'm kind of baffled. But I would have to agree with you, if any aftershave left a powdery residue on my face it would definately put me off as well.

came in a small trial bottle,bought about 7-8 different samples to try from connaught,used them quite a bit,good stock & prices & fast delivery.

I got to try the Floid Genuine (Amber) today and I enjoyed it very much.

i agree....floid amber is really a nice aftershave. once and a while some vendors and ebayers sell 100 ml decants of it if you want to try a smaller sized amount. google/ebay floid Decant and some come up for sale every once and a while.
