I was at the local thrift store I sotted some unique aftershave bottles. Most of the chess set was there I picked one aftershave unopened one and the wild turkey was unopened as well. paid .50 a piece. Do aftershaves go bad with age ?

Not that I can tell.  I have some vintage English Leather and Avon Wild Country in a white rook bottle.  My understanding is that the bottle should be full or almost full so that there is little air inside.

That is cool. They sold a bunch of cologne and aftershaves back in the day. I found this vintage Avon Leather Cologne in a Packard bottle in a thrift store in 2017. It is 6 oz. and appears to have never been used.

Have had TONS of Avon and always still good. The Island Lime and Leather are my favorites. Nice find !

I went back and got a couple some more. All full .The king is Oland, the queen is Spicy ,the pawns are Wild Country, and the car is Tai Winds. Looks like I'm set for a while with aftershave .

You certainly are set for a while.
