Is the best Aftershave in the world still produced in glass bottles?

I am, of course, referring to Aqua Velva.

I heard they would make it in plastic only. But I have seen tons of glass bottles recently.

The plastic-only thing was only a rumor. I believe the company decided against it.

I've only seen the plastic in my next of the woods same with Old Spice...

I definitely have been seeing more and more plastic bottles of AV with some glass bottles still on the shelves as well.

Let's just say I won't be discarding any AV glass bottles any time soon.

Since most aftershaves contain a fair bit of alcohol, I would venture to guess the quality of a plastic bottle would have to be rather high, making the cost of a plastic bottle not super economical. I guess there is the shipping issue... weight and breakage but I'm not sure plastic is a clear cut winner yet.

I'm sorry to say that Lilac Vegetal has been sold in plastic bottles for many years now.

Down here the ones I can get are glass bottles.

check out your Dollar General's or Family Dollar type places. also, had some luck at mom/pop grogery stores and Rx's.

Saw the last glass bottles in the past few months. All of the big stores are all plastic now. I would imagine if someone wants glass they could still find them in a smaller shop for the next little while then they will all be gone.

I've always had the same rule with my aftershaves as I do with my liquor...if it comes in a plastic bottle I don't buy it...sorry Phil, haven't touched the Veg yet. Now I'm caught in a dilemma as so many of the good brand are going plastic.

Glass bottle sighting @ Bed Bath & Beyond in Cleveland (Richmond Rd. off 271)..

Nivea Sensitive still comes in a bottle

Aqua Velva is now pretty much all plastic bottles in Canada. If you find some glass bottles, snap them up.

There is one local grocery store that has one glass bottle pushed all the way to the back of the shelf. Everywhere else is all plastic. I check to see if it is there everytime I am in there and keep almost buying it until I realize that I don't like AV.
