Curious - do you think the "Florida Water" is in anyway referring or referencing the "Fountain of Youth" water from St Augustine?

 

[GuntherHess]

no, it was a cheap perfumed toilet water.

Wow - I never would have guessed toilet water...not with it having druggist on it?

Funky -

Thanks!

in the 19th century perfumes and toilet waters were commonly sold (and sometimes manufactured) by druggists.
