I really like Acqua di Parma, pricey and whether it is really worth the money is a moot point, however it is a lovely cream and produces amazing lather.
Ditto..,.one of my favorite creams, great lather, lubicity, scent and moisturizing properties.
I would buy something in Italy that you cannot find in the states. Unfortunately, I have no idea what that would be, except maybe some SMN products.
