i won't buy it form ebay, but if there's any vendors that have it i'll definitely pick it up right away ....

on that note does anyone know if any online vendors carry it??? :D

[goose819]

I think Joe from Italianbarber.com said they are expecting to get it soon.

[Addallat]

they've got the other 2 new ones guess i'll wait until they get this one to place a big order for the free shipping. can't seem to find any vendor online other than the ebay link that sells it at the moment

[Hippie Kai Yay]

Yeah, I'm waiting 'til Joe at Italianbarber.com gets that product in. Then I'm ordering all three aftershaves, some Proraso sandalwood, and if that doesn't throw me over the edge of free shipping, I guess I will get some Floid Amber! Wet shaving ain't saving me squat!

I've bought from Maguires on the bay a few times and never had any problems. Had razors, soaps and blades.

Anybody ever figure what this new AS balm smells like?

Anybody ever figure what this new AS balm smells like?

Yes:

• A pleasant fragrance. While it won't stay with you forever, it's definitely stronger than the old liquid cream aftershave balm - check if it clashes with your cologne! The scent itself is actually quite complex (and I'm horrible at describing scents, so please forgive me). Starting with a very faint resemblance to Hugo Boss - just a hint to describe the rather fresh, fruity opening notes which reminded me of a bit of watermelon and apple and are gone in an instant - the scent quickly fades into a balmy, buttery, very subtle and rather "warm" note, before it almost vanishes, leaving nothing but a faint aquatic whiff. It's hard to describe, but positively reminds me of some of our classic shaving products - Nivea aftershave balm, Palmolive shaving cream, the Wilkinson shave stick. If you smelled these, followed by Proraso's new balm, you'd nod and say "Yeah, definitely a part of the team."

I should probably update the review. After really enjoying the scent for the first couple of days I now miss the subtlety of Proraso's old liquid cream aftershave. This one is definitely more 'in your face' than before, which makes it a bit harder to use every day.

Thanks, I haven't smelled Hugo Boss so I may have to take a chance and order some.

sounds promising. I enjoy their sandalwood cream. very nice. face-lathers great. hmm, this stuff has many similar ingredients to my arko creams which I combine with the soap stick.

ahh im in the virgin island bay rum flow maybe that will be my aftershave when it runs out
