I’m anxious to see it arrive in the US. How does it compare with the Vigoroso currently sold?Gentlemen, here are my thoughts regarding this new, outstanding product. In order to make my mini review detailed and precise, I'll divide it into 3 sections, as shown below:
- Packaging
The sturdy 400ml glass bottle with sturdy black screw cap needs no presentation: it's the tradition one that has never changed. What is new and striking is the label, which takes inspiration from the authentic 1932 Floid label design and adds a touch of "nostalgia" to this world renowned lotion. The label is made of thick, creamy white paper that has the look and feel of a true parchment. It simply could not be more vintage style and beautiful.
- Fragrance
I have no doubts at all. This is the ORIGINAL 1932 Floid scent, perfectly recreated. It features the authentic Floid powdery barbershop notes, with a good menthol kick and a proper alcohol content. Simply put the immortal fragrance we have all loved so much.
The colour of the lotion is also the correct deep orange/brown of the very first 1932 Floid The Genuine.
- Performance
This is where this aftershave truly shines. The added plant extracts make this splash behave almost like a high quality balm. After an initial light burning sensation the skin feels amazingly moisturized, tight and silky soft.
A legendary, timeless classic that is now back.
My vote: 10/10

It doesn't come up when I search Floid on Fendrihan.com, the older version does but not the new.
Do you have a URL link?
Is this the old version?

Sir, the Vigoroso is a Spanish Floid, while The Genuine is an Italian. They have always been different. If I remember well the Vigoroso should have a higher alcohol content and it certainly lacks all the new plant extracts put in this latest version of the 1932 The Genuine.
@Marco I'd be curious to know what is this retailing for there?

Use the Fat, Luke!
Thought I should let you all know that I have let Maggard's know that they have a new product they need to stock.
