OOOhhh I wish I got a big order of russian shaving products in the mail today.( I recieved a order from West Coast Shaving today) Those Colognes/Aftershaves look cool ( I cant read russian so im guessing thats what they are). Did you order this from a Website or a person you know?

 

[rickboone1]

That's awesome. Where'd you get them? I have a friend that travels there a bit, trying to think of stuff to ask him to look for.

I have no way to print in cryllic ,so just copy the photos and use them as reference.In addition,one of the finest creams you can buy,Phyto Expert , comes from Russia as well..these came from a friend...

Тройной = Triple (it's the only Russian cologne I'm familiar with)
Шипр = Chypre
Бриз = Breeze (these are all aftershave creams/gels)

Thank you for the link i have been wanting to try some more russian products. So far the only Russian products I have tried are Gillette made blades. Also On the link are all the colognes listed Russian or only some of them If only i read russian I could look up the russian websites. ( I tried to do the google page translator but that didnt work to well)

as far as I know,they are all Russian..The citrus bottles and this Carnation are really great,the carnation is a nice change of pace from rosewater aftershave,and not feminine at all,really refreshing and soothing.Thick glass bottles and nice caps.

Thanks for the link. At those prices a few aftershaves could be worth picking up on a whim.

And I really like the look of that Sputnik razor blades pack.

The Everest shaving cream and aftershave balm are great, and so is the Svoboda aftershave cream.
The Chypre eau de cologne comes in a nice glass bottle.

svoboda AS cream is the white tube in the middle, made by the same manufacturer (свобод&#1072 of the blue shaving cream on the left.
The red one is "пять звезд" (five stars) aftershave balm.

AHH ! Thanks for the info...I only recognized the blue tube of Everest as an a/s balm,I thought the rest were all shaving creams !

'Comme il faut' is also AS gel, and the green Breeze ("бриз") is AS cream.

I think I have seen the comme il faut in the same tube,only a shaving cream,is this correct ?
