Perhaps A Bit Too Nostalgic .....

[Scott0079]

Well, just for the sake of nostalgia today I splashed on some Avon Leather aftershave Circa 1970 (which happens to be 9 years older than myself).....probably not my finest decision....Strong, Strong, Strong , I could see SWMBO drafting divorce papers in her eyes...my four year old nearly fainted....the 3 month old has not stopped crying.

what kind of bottle? was it the Model "A"?

Yeah, love that bottle.


Hurry up and drink it so you can refill it with something else.


Maybe you just want to keep it as a display piece...you don't want to get that label wet.

Abraham Lincoln.....

"Four Score and seven years ago, whoa what is that smell, has Grant got his boots off again?!"

While it is marked AS use it like you would a COL.

I just bought a full bottle of Avon Leather at the thrift shop for $1. I quite like the scent but you are right it is strong, and it doesn't seem to moisturize at all. I think it work better as a cologne.

If Lincoln left you stinking,
And the leather was too strong
If you scared the wife and kiddies
And you think you've chosen wrong

Then never fear, your choice is clear
To put right this domestic squall
A house divided will be reunited
If you splash on Lilac Vegetal







(They'll be beggin' for you to bring back Honest Abe... )

Truly awesome. When people write "Lol" I usually shake my head sadly. No longer.

+1 I have noticed this with a lot of the Avon AS. They are stronger than most AS we are used to, so it is always a good idea to go easy on them.
