Wow, that's stunning
Thank you mate - lost count how many I’ve owned now - but I’d say this is a close 1st out of themWow, that's stunning
Don't tell people that! I had my Blackbird on here for originally £120 inc postage, I'd say a good price, had to reduce it to £100, still no takers, Stuck it on Ebay, sold it for more plus postage. Sometimes forums aren't the best place to sell, limited audience. A lot of forum members want stuff for nowt and still aren't happy.OneBlade - Stay off eBay at night folks!

I fell down the men's aftershave/fragrance rabbit-hole about 8 years ago, I've now got around 14 bottles of various stuff, my favourite for a number of years now has been Viktor and Rolf Spicebomb (the original one), it's a really good Autumn/Winter one with decent staying power. It's quite pricey if you pay full whack for it at the main high street retailers such as Boots (currently £110 for the 150ml bottle there) so I always shop around online (the three websites that I tend to find are cheapest are Notino, Allbeauty and Fragrance Direct), in addition to this if you ever visit the Canary Islands there's a myriad of fragrance shops over there where the prices are just insanely cheap (for both mens and ladies fragrances, all genuine as well, no copies/bootlegs as long as you stick to the main stores), last summer I bought the aforementioned 150ml bottle of Spicebomb for £62. The Mrs and I have been going to Costa Adeje in Tenerife for the last 7-8 years (apart from when Covid landed on us) so we always tend to treat ourselves when we go. I also signed up for emails to the three websites and they email you when they have offers on like % off and free P and P etc (Notino tend to have offers on quite frequently and also sell a selection of DE shaving stuff as well).View attachment 123404
Valentino Born in Roma
Amazing what you'll do when bored to tears om a trading estate. Tried this in Boots and thought 'Shit that is nice'. And so I bought some. There was something it reminded me of but couldn't quite think what.
Only this evening did I realise that although not on the fragrance tree, it's blackcurrant. Well more blackcurrant than violet which is. But then what would I know having zero fragrance nounce
Smells like seductive Ribena.
I hope you got the (older) Mitchell's formulation @Satanfriendly or it's a VERY expensive wooden bowl. Must say, for old times I've considered a Kent bowl as a home for one of the newer Mitchell's formulation. Southport is a long way to drive, mind.
