Florena history

Interesting site: http://www.ddr-duftmuseum-1949-1989.de/florena-serie-privileg/

Thanks, this is great stuff!!
You can buy a tube of Florena cream for under an Euro, about a buck!! Its a big tube with 100 mL (3.4 oz), next time I am in Germany I will pick a tube up.

Neat

Cool link.

Well it interesting.The newer florena has silicone in it and that was something tha i don't like because it clogs my pores.One day i was lucky enough to find a 90's tube of the non silicone florena.One of the most amazing creams i have ever seen.

love it

Very cool!

First time I heard of a silicone cream ,that does sound like a pore clogger !

It is actually not silicone, but a silicon compound, Dimethicone, a siloxan compound:

I use the regular Florena cream which smells great and the chamomile in it is so moisturizing and soothing. An absolutely fabulous cream.

The artwork on their soap labels is fantastic. I tried to capture as many of the shave related products as possible ,I know a lot of us don't have the time to go through the entire site,but it is a great look at German cosmetics of the past.. http://postimg.org/gallery/1xggful8c/ interesting to note TUF aftershave is still in production http://postimg.org/gallery/17dwyeccc/ and the soap museum is a masterpiece of design ...

My goodness, Privileg is as old-school German as you could get!
