Did Nordstrom's at South Coast Plaza finally get the Truefitt & Hill products in? Last time I was there in mid April, they still hadn't gotten anything in yet.
 
Just got off the phone with Nordstrom's. Yes and no. Yes, they got the items, but they only ordered 3 of each. They've sold out of a lot of items, but have ordered more (6 of everything). Shaving creams were an item she mentioned they have.
 
Just added L'Occitane. Am going to make a trip there later in the week to see what they have.
 
Just added Longs Drug and Mothers Market. Anyone try any of the Weleda or Herban Cowboy stuff?

I haven't looked in an Albertson's. I'll try to look next time I pass one.
 
It's north of you and not in OC but the ShaverShop in Torrance has Merkur razors and some nice shaving creams, etc.
 
Hmm....

I've seen the Urban Cowboy stuff at Henry's Markets. There's one in Costa Mesa on Harbor Blvd just south of the 405. There's also one in Fullerton, on Harbor Blvd just north of the 91. I tried it. I didn't like it al all.

Also, don't forget Target for Proraso stuff! There are Targets all over Orange County!

LetterK, thank you for taking the time to complile this list. I had assumed the the Penhalogin's store was in Beverly Hills but then again South Coast Palaza is more Rodeo Dr. than Rodeo Drive is now a days.

Is the Penhalogin's store on the main side or accoss the sky bridge?
 
It's in the main side, near the center (where they usually put the big Christmas tree), second floor.
 
A very sad day. I was planning on heading over to Penhaligon's this weekend and just found out they moved to Santa Monica. It went from being a 15 minute drive to an hour. :mad:

What a downer...although that is still closer than a lot of people on this board. I will say though that Penhaligons is one store worthy of such a drive...

John, does that store do any online/mail order sales or is it just walk in business ?
