    Default Ama in Italy at the moment and would like advice.

    On holiday (vacation) in Florence at the moment and only packed Tabac by mistake. Intend getting other stuff here. Any recommendations? Thanks.

    And this is a problem how???

    I can't pick any individual shops, but there's always Cella. As well I believe Xpec is made by Forester Milan, as was Domenico Caraceni. If there's a prayer of finding DC it's probably in Italy....

    If I was in your shoes, I would try Italian soaps and creams you can't get back home, like artisans stuff in Italy. I think if your party is up for it, it would make for a good shopping adventure. Just throwing it out there. Double O

    P.S. and drink the wine on the way!

    Oh my Gosh! What a great place to forget to bring your cream!!

    Tell us what you are getting there!! I love Italian soaps/creams. I know they are selling the new Proraso's there... in case you are looking for an old "standby."

    Happy Hunting!! I am jealous

    If you like a strong "almond" smell (maraschino cherries?), grab a few tubs of the soft Figaro soap. You should be able to find them in many grocery stores.

    Will you be visiting Rome?

    The last time I was in Italy I bought enough Proraso products to last 2 years for
    about $20 cad.

    I miss Italy...
