"Light Feathery Barbershop Aftershaves-Where Can I find Them?

[rgarr]

My wife and I were in Italy...on the Isle of Capri and I saw a bottle of Williams After Shave in the window of what they call a Farmecia or pharmacy. We were too rushed to check it out. Does anyone know where I can purchase a bottle of this in the U.S.? What I'm looking for is a mild aftershave menthol or non-menthol scent that is like the old barbershop scents like Pinaud Clubman. I have almost all of the other scents listed here including Yardley, which I bought on Ebay. If you can help I would appreciate it. Also, where to buy the scent! Thanks one and all!

You may get a bit more help if you post this in the aftershave section.

I'll help you out! Look no further:

or

You will have to wait a little while for shipping since these are both European sites. I've purchased from both and have no opinion one way or the other as far as service. Both great sites. Personally, I like the larger, retro style bottle that Varonia sells.... but that's just me.

Forgot to mention.... the Williams AV aftershave is quite a bit more subdued in scent and menthol compared to the U.S. version. You mentioned that you were interested in that. The scent is nothing like Clubman though. Personally, I like AV better than Clubman.... but again, that's just me.

Ben, I'm interested in the Williams AV (does the AV stand for Aqua Velva?) If so, I can tell you that I like Williams and I like the fact that you said it was a bit more subdued in scent and menthol compared to the U.S. version. What I really don't care for is the regular U.S. Aqua Velva. Is there a difference between the Williams AV and the U.S. AV? Also, is it a watery liquid ( I hope ) or a creamy liquid like the regular U.S. Aqua Velva? Where can I buy the Williams version in the U.S.? Thank you for all your help my friend.
