Ok, I needed some lavender AS, so I thought I would try a couple that I have seen on here. I ordered PAA Planet Lavender and Chatillon Lux Champs de Lavande! No the wait by the mailbox begins!

Consider Stirling Soap's Bergamot Lavender splash as well.. It's one of my all-time favorites.
Looking forward to your reports when received.
It's good you got the two different ones
PAA Lavender Planet is a straight linear lavender overload
CL Champ de Lavande has other notes as well and differs from their Pure

I just added lavender essential oil to some witch hazel until it screamed.
Face-scorching clouds of lavender scent ... perfect after the DG lavender soap.
Also glycerin, of course. Shake well before use.
"Purple haze!"

This, along with hoarding my Lavender Creeper is at the top of my favorites list.

Airmech, out of curiosity, did you consider Chatillon Lavender? If you did and opted not to get it, why not? I ask because I am going to be looking for a lavender aftershave that is floral leaning, and wondering if that might be it.
If you are interested in a really nice lavender scent that isnt just straight lavender, then I would also recommend Dr Jon's Flowers In The Dark.
On their website I see only aftershave balm and pre-shave oil. Afraid I am an alcohol, splash guy.
seems like AOS must have discontinued the lavender lotion in the plastic spray bottle.
if you want something with alcohol, look at trumper's or czech & speake.
keep in mind, many of the so-called 'barbershop' or 'talcum' scents were based on lavender.
happy hunting!

Caron Pour un Homme is a great classic.
B&M Lavanille is quite based on it, if I understand well.

Puig Agua Lavanda -search over 
Alot of PAA's offerings sound great, but they have a seasonal scents and seem to be dropping/adding and re-formulating scents. I'd hate to get one, like it, and then it not be available.
I have Puig Agua Brava and it's nice. Doesn't have the best longevity but it is nice. I guess their lavender is worth a try.
OXFORD & CAMBRIDGE +1
Yup, worth a try for sure. Very clean, has some longevity for me and also pretty good bang for your buck.
I recently acquired a Mickey Lee "Jefferson Square" set as part of a BST deal. Soap is at about 90%, AS is around half full if memory serves. I have reluctantly decided I just don't care for lavender. Happy to pass it along to any of you lavender heads if you pick up the postage. If you're interested, send PM; in case of several replies, first one to reply gets it.
Oxford & Cambridge +2. Amazing scent. A little goes a long way to offset the higher cost.
