Picked up a bottle at the Amish store for $2. Great smelling stuff. It’s my “special occasion” splash.
What’s Up With Aqua Velva Musk?

It's strong, overpowering and I like it. It couples nicely with my morning dark fired tobacco and black tea breath.
Of course I write this having used vintage Old Spice (in the tankard/beer stein decanter) which always seems a little longer lasting due to concentrating over time. I worked in a small office of eight people, three of which were ladies that I swear each of them were constantly dosing themselves trying to drown out the scents of the others, it became unbearable. The remaining 5 of us solved the issue by pitching in one Christmas and paid up to buy three bottles of the same higher end popular scent--we were still smelling their perfume, but at least it was the same scent...
Weirdly, I noticed this too - that most of the classics have disappeared in many stores, but Brut has held on. Not what I would have expected. I'd have predicted that Aqua Velva would be the last to go.
Two grocers nearby. One has Aqua Velva Ice Blue and Old Spice. The other used to have Skin Bracer but not anymore. Never have seen Aqua Velva Musk locally. Just at Walmart.
I meant AV Ice Blue, just to be clear (though I have seen the Musk at grocery stores - just not as commonly). That's sad about Skin Bracer. Also, I suspect someone has bought or is trying to rehabilitate Brut. To my shock I saw a Brut-branded "tattoo balm" product for sale recently.
Brut aftershave is being sold in a new bottle, so there’s definitely a push going on.
I haven't seen it - do you have a pic by any chance?
I tried to find it online. Maybe I’ll have to stop where I saw it and grab a bottle. Twist my arm!
I think you must do that for the good of the forum!I tried to find it online. Maybe I’ll have to stop where I saw it and grab a bottle. Twist my arm!

I had the one that was blue coloured and I have to say I thought it foul. I was on holiday in Canada at the time and it's not available here in the UK so was excited when I found it but ended up disappointed.
This is what they sell at a local grocer.
Yep, I have that one as well. I keep telling myself to thin out the aftershave stash. Probably won't happen.
Me too. Its probably a blessing I cant find Skin Bracer locally anymore.Yep, I have that one as well. I keep telling myself to thin out the aftershave stash. Probably won't happen.

I saw the larger bottle (5 ounces?) of Skin Bracer at my local supermarket yesterday. They’re selling it for $7.49 a bottle! Hmmm….
Thanks for the bottle pics... waiting to see if MasonJJ came across the same one...
I better buy all of them just to be on the safe side.

That was the one I saw but I haven't picked it up yet.
I like the new bottle a good bit better than the old... might pick one up if I can find it.
