It's nice to see the two principal adversaries present their arguments with eloquence and appropriate amounts of grace. As a lawyer, for me it's like reading well-written briefs.

I also have no dog in this hunt, but I wholeheartedly agree with Will that modern Old Spice smells nothing like vintage Shulton. But Reserve Spice does.

To give a nod to his opponent, I am still able to find Floid Blue for sale online. Perhaps there's a lot of stock to get rid of following its extinction, but when I checked in recent weeks, it remained available.

Finally, I'm enjoying two gents flexing their legal educations. There's not enough of this high-class discourse out there these days.

P.S. PAA is perhaps my favorite family of aftershave splashes. They intentionally seek to mimic some classic scents, but they are extremely creative, and produce some of the highest quality face feel splashes in the industry. For example, Sk8shop, modeled after an existential perception of what a skate shop smells like, is sublime. I've never been to a skate shop but, next one I see, I'm stepping in and taking a huge whiff...

There are no eggs in a New York Egg Cream and no trout in Baltimore Lake Trout.

That may, in fact, depend very much on where you are in the world when you order it. Tongue

No, not everybody wants to get wrapped up in those issues you obviously feel strongly about. Some of us actually just want to hang out, have a few laughs and maybe talk about shaving. You want heavy, go read CNN.

To continue the spirit of consumer crime fighter I'd like to see you take your plight to another forum - RE Asylum Colonia shave soap. A no two ways about it knock-off of ADP original. Betcha won't. But if you do, welcome to the ban club. Big Grin
