It's hard to tell what you have there from the pic. If that's the Stanley Steamer it had Wild Country or Windjammer. One Good Turn had Tai Winds or Spicy.
I will also add that from the remaining fragrance of the "Excalibur" AS I smelled - I will definitely be looking for some of that to refill it with- LIKE++ ( both the bottle and the aftershave that it use to be filled with
Love the Futura. It was ahead of its time, lol.

I have the green horse head chess piece Avon bottle. I put witch hazel in it
The green one is not a chess piece.

Well, it looks like on.
It has the brass ring in its mouth too.
Right, and chess pieces wouldn't have a ring.
What you have is a replica of a horse hitching post.
Dude,
I don't know, it looked like a chess piece to me.
I'll just role with a horse head of witch hazel.
LoL.

Found a full Avon Barber Pole that I picked up for $3.00 while visiting an antique store today. The Old Spice mug was only $4.00.
The store had the Avon mother load. The majority were empty, a handful were full still. Ranging from $7-$10. I was tempted but thought better of it.

Nice Scores! The barber pole is a nice den decoration. And I love those OS Coffee Mugs. I've got a set of 4 of them.
@Motown313 that is an Avon Chess piece.
Great snag on that Old Spice mug, Toothpick!

you aren't kidding! I'm glad I'm not there, I'd be carting too much home.
If they were a bit cheaper, say...half the price, then I would have gotten a few more. But at that price it adds up quick.
A few arrived in the mail....Spicy (Bike), Deep Woods and Wild Country
I've yet to find the cycle in the thrift/antique stores I visit. still hoping.
Nothing fancy, but after strong recommendations for me to take advantage of buying some Oland - I went back to my Avon lady seller for a full $3 Liberty Dollar of Oland- still in search of Excalibur and Tai Wind
Great scores lately guys. 
nice dollar!
I went to a flea market today. One of the booths had a bunch of Avon marked $1-3. I grabbed all the Spicy I could find plus a few others.
The Supper Shavers, Apothecary, and On Tap are all full of Spicy 21 oz total
The log is full of Deep Woods cologne
The Classic Lion is full of Tribute
The Pot Belly Stove is full of Bravo
On the way home I stopped at an antique shop and saw a bunch more. This time they were marked $12-25 and most were empty. I almost asked if they needed to buy some more.
