They've just started advertising Old Spice over here again, so maybe they are going to revive it. My old Dad used to use it all the time, but mixed with his brycreem it smelt awful!

As a Perfumer in my time !! LOL

Most men buy EDT for aftershave because its stronger in scent and does last longer on the skin, but its NOT for the facial skin and WILL sting !!......, but the Aftershave is a weaker substance especially made for the facial area and should not sting, unless one has open pores ....and should avoid the face area just apply to the neck !.

You can get Old Spice on the internet loads of it !!

My OH has used the same after shave for nearly 50 years. It is how he smells.

Imagine the crisis when we discovered the company would no longer sell the product in Australia.

Tried other brands, it was terrible, he absolutely did not smell right.

Family would search distant community shops for bottles of the stuff.

Then we discovered it was still available in the USA. We now buy it on line, cheaper, including the postage, than what we were paying in stores here.

So you have two choices, alternate brands so the other half doesn't become used to one smell.

OR Choose a company which won't take your choice off the market in 50 years time.
