Unfortunately, no, sorry - the Swiss version is hard to find. Won't most mainland Europe-based vendors ship it to you?
There is a Spanish vendor, yourshaving.com. Jose runs the shop. Nice guy.

I have the Croatian clone Ralon. Does anybody know how close it is to the original/Swiss one?
To be honest, I am not a big fan as it is very heavy on Ylang Ylang.

Great info! Thanks.
That's it, the Swiss looks like this:
Nothing like it that I've found although the cedar German stuff is great. (but very different)
www.manufactum.com is for international orders but Pitralon isn't listed. Maybe an oversight. Better send them an email.

I do not know their shipping costs, but they carry all versions of Pitralon.
You can't order this from outside Europe -- since the products contain alcohol they can't be sent via airmail. I have tried and they said it wasn't possible.Las mejores marcas para un afeitado clasico y unico en Yourshaving.com

Why? People can buy alcohol from duty free shops. They carry alcohol in their luggage. But airmail is not allowed? I never understood why.
It's due to regulatory agreements, evidently it's considered dangerous goods for air freight. I'm assuming it might be flammable if the container leaks or breaks. I know that's not a complete answer, but that's the reason given by vendors.
BTW, it can be freighted by cargo ships. Evidently, that's how stores on this side of the Atlantic get their stocks.

The Swiss smells nothing like the green one. It smells very sweet and flowery with a touch of honey.
