Very tempted by the Skin Bracer and Pinaud Clubman. What do folks reckon is chillier menthol-wise, Skin Bracer or AV Ice Blue?

Re: RE: Williams Aqua Velva
At that price you might as well get both
They may even combine shipping.

Skin Bracer has menthol in it, Aqua Velva don't both smells different and Both are very good, so you better buy both m8 and ask him to combine postage, price is very reasonable. Actually buy three of them; Skin Bracer, AquaVelva and Pinaud Clubman. As a matter of fact, because x-mas coming add the AV musk as well. You won't regret

I think I must have a different aqua velva, mine is totally different to the picture above. Maybe the European version is only distantly related to its US cousin?
There's very little menthol to mine, only a hint.

Damn it! I didn't find anything in Bruges ... not that we were looking too hard, given all the beer and frites on offer. We did visit a couple of Carrefours, but nothing to be found. Shame. Ho-hum!

Oh shame.
Looking into this further, I've found that the US version is regarded as being heavier on the menthol and has totally different packaging, but actually smells very similar.
The Euro version is a little lighter and comes in about 3 different bottles / labels / caps, depending on where it was made.

Can anyone extract Aqua Velva from the plastic bottle opening thingy?
Seems like for the amount that pours into the palm of my hand an equal amount or more dribbles down the side the the bottle and down the sink!

I bought aqua velva & skin bracer from bluemedical on ebay at the beginning of the year.
Both good, I decanted them into superdrug aftershave bottles along with my Floids. After emptying the nasty smelling stuff that comes in them around the garden.

I think your nose might be wired up wrong.
