You can also order them online; just do a google search.


I did not know this! I'm going to check them out asap. Thanks

Look for Alt Innsbruck, imported from Austria. Made by a small firm which originally supplied virtually every barber in Austria, this cologne contains only Alcohol, Nicotiana Tabacum (from Virgina Tobacco) and Menthol. Here in Germany, it only costs 16 € per 100ml which is quite fair for a product free of chemicals and synthetic scents. However, depending on where you live, it might be hard to get.

tuscany was the first scent i ever bought and it never went out of production so anyone interested in it should get the regular bottle for less money. they seem to have used the tuscany bottle for their new re-releases.

also, for a tobacco scent try guerlain vetyver. it doesn't smell good on me but it lasts all day and has a strong tobacco note.

Thanks for your help; I'll look out for those colognes here. I haven't seen Aramis in Paris (I'd prefer to try before buying from the US).

Guerlain's Vetiver is one of my favourites - good call.

Thanks John, this is good to know. I tried to find Aramis Havana several years ago, but couldn't locate it anywhere.

(chalk up another one for Prof. Fabulous!)

Try Tabac, has a tobacco smell to me, plus the guys at badgerandblade.com rave incessantly about it. Ive got a bottle and absolutely love it.
