today I was in walmart picking up a few last minute things needed for our trip next week and I as usual I walk down the isle with the shave stuff. You know in hopes they remove all the disposables and fill it with DE's. Hey a girl can dream.

That's when I noticed something different.

A RED BOX !!!!!!

I took these pictures with my cell phone and texted them to Freddy. But I still picked one up for the hubby. Oh and the 6 oz bottle was cheaper than the 4 oz bottle. Go figure.

They call it Classic Scent and it says EST. 1938. When I got home I smelled this cologne and the fragrance oil that I have that people say it smells like the old vintage scent they remember that was discontinued. And well to me they smelled alike. So does this mean that they listened to their customers and brought back the old Old Spice version that their customers crave?

It says it's Fabricated in Canada but distributed by procter & gamble in both the US and Canada.

I am including links of the larger pic in the link in case you want to see details.

Gotta love the, "If your grandfather hadn't worn it..."

*shocked* are they suggesting that our grandfathers..... had.... did.... IT !!!!

If this is the same bottle I picked mine up at Walgreen a few months ago.

I always thought that was just new packaging for the same P&G stuff, which I really like btw.

No it's a different bottle. I just took this picture.

But the label now says EST 1938, but it says classic as well.

Interesting. I haven't heard anything about a reformulation, but maybe something is happening.

I don't use the OS aftershave myself because I like the ViJon knockoffs at $1.25 a bottle LOL. However, I did buy the OS cologne bottle in my picture a while back. It had caught my eye because the Walgreen store I was in that day had a mix of the old and new boxes on the shelf, and the Classic box stood out.

have not seen this one or found it on the shaving shelfs in the uk.the only old spice over hear is the original which has it distinctive scent a good old timer which is still popular today.reminds me of my dad.i should get a bottle for old time seick the scent is not that bad smellt a lot worse.
a the OLD SPICEA brings back fond memorys.

Krissy, you inspired me. I decided to wear OS today

Damn right! Reminds me of an uncle I had who used to be in the British Navy. Tattoo on his arm of a mermaid, tales of fighting chinese pirates and seeing nuclear bomb tests in the Pacific - and the unmistakable tang of Old Spice hanging in the air. Awesome memories.

Not sure if I'm quite up to wearing it now - anybody tried Brut recently?

I have and must say I truly enjoy it! My wife does not really like it, but I generally put it on in the morning before heading out the door and by the time I get home, the scent is gone!

My Grandfather had the market cornered on Old Spice. When he passed I found 15 Big bottles at his place.

I detested Old Spice as a kid. The smell seemed to be really powerful, and I didn't like the 'spice' element.

Flash forward 30+ years and I love it, and it seems far more subtle.

I love Brut! If I could drink it I would!

With Old Spice, I like the old soap smell, but actually prefer the new old spice in aftershave form.
