An Old Spice PIF from the UK to my friends overseas..........

[EclipseRedRing]

I have been the recipient of much generosity and friendship here at B&B so it is my turn.....

For your interest is a 200ml Shulton Old Spice Limited Edition Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee bottle from 1977 complete with the original packaging.

The bad news is...... it is empty ☹

The good news is......... I can send it anywhere in the World

I am sure you guys can refill this bottle with a suitable aftershave, I suggest vintage Old Spice

It will look great on a window sill and with the sunlight behind it you will get a lovely blue glow in your shave den.

Please be aware that I will use cheapo postage which may take a while - the Royal Mail quote up to 42 days for the USA and even longer for Australia! I will do my best to pack it as well as I can but there is a chance that it may get broken.

I will leave the PIF running until the end of July in case there is no interest in what is after all just an empty bottle - just say 'I am in'. All I ask is that you have been a member at B&B since at least January 1st 2021, that you do not live in the UK, and that you have 100+ quality posts. I will exclude @FarmerTan from the quality posts requirement

Best of luck, Richard

No - the brush is not included!

Not in, but well done on a very nice gesture!
As an aside to the winner, India manufactured Old Spice is a dead ringer for vintage Old Spice!

That’s gorgeous! I’m definitely in!

Not in - great PIF Richard!

How can I differentiate the two versions when ordering online?
Btw how close is vintage Avon Spicy to Shulton OS?

Some say Spicy is close but to my nose Spicy has more of a bay rum note with clove. I like and wear both.

I found one NOS bottle in Poland an use it rather sparingly. I like the scent better than the current OS version available in Europe.

I went on eBay and there were a few listings that specified “from India”. I ordered one, we’ll see what I get.

I usually order from places that specifically state that they are selling the India version.
West Coast shaving is one such place, I'm sure there are others and I am not touting one vendor over another.

Many thanks, this is then again the old „can’t ship alcohol“ thing. I’ll have a look at the Bay.

[sliwolf]

I'm in !! I lived there when my dad was in the Air Force many years ago . Love that bottle !

 

[KeenDogg]

Not in, but if @FarmerTan wins one more PIF, I swear I'll have a nervous breakdown.

Good of you, Richard!

 

[Grundi]

Gorgeous bottle and wonderful PIF!! Respectfully, not in!!

 

[ylekot]

Respectfully NOT in but that is a cool bottle! Looks great paired with that brush as well.

Good of you, Richard!

I'm so sad to hear of your impending breakdown my friend!

But I'm still not in this one! (I actually enter so many, I have forgotten what this one is for! Maybe I'll reconsider?!?)

 

[FarmerTan]

Oh! This was a dirty trick the 'Dawg played on me! I didn't read the whole thread, and it looks like I'm out!

That IS a beauty, friend @Eclipse Red Ring ! If someone here wins it, I recommend filling it with vintage Avon Spicy! Wonderful stuff! Good luck to all.... except that "Dirty 'Dawg"....

 

[Alohawyatt]

I’m in.

I’ve started a modest collection of vintage Old Spice. As to what to put in it? I'm a big fan of Stirling Spice.

 

[AnimalCatcher]

I'm in. Thank you for the opportunity.
