Clubman Foraging

[Blondie]

So I went out foraging in the wild for Pinaud/AII products. I was lucky enough to find a Beauty Supply store that stocked the Special Reserve, and Musk. I grabbed 'em, and threw in a 16oz bottle of Clubman Original and an Osage Rub to make the trip worthwhile, y'know with the cost of gas and all. I really like the Special Reserve, and the musk is nice as well. The other two are just backup inventory.

Which for some reason, just continues to grow. It's as if it multiplies all by itself, and I have no control over it.

OMG! How many bottles of Aqua velva have you got there? Are you stocking stuff for a third world war? By the way, do aftershaves, shaving soaps, shaving creams,etc... get ruined with time? How many years do they last?

There's about 15 bottles of AV Blue/Musk, all glass. I stocked up right before they went to plastic. I have not had a problem with A/S going bad yet, and have a few bottles a couple years old. I also just bought a bottle of Chanel No. 5 for SWMBO, that is at least 40 yrs old, and it was just fine, so under the right conditions, it can last awhile. The main enemies are heat and light.

Great haul! I think that it's pretty cool to find the whole line in a store. You've motivated me to go out an replenish my Portugal and Classic Vanilla.

Wow never thought a perfume/cologne could last so long!

As long as they stay cool and out of sunlight/bright light, they should last for many, many years. I have some aftershaves that are 25+ years old, that work great.

Nice start!

Phil - what store did you go to? I've been wanting to get my hands on some osage rub.

Ah, I recognize a fellow hoarder when I see it. Fantastic.

I see we have a glass hoarder.

Sounds like a good store. We have a local drug store that carries clubman original, classic vanilla, musk, reserve, lime sec and the dreaded veg. Needless to say, i have spent a few dollas there in my day!
