What's your favorite Aftershave and why

Italian barber Amici AS- I will buy it again because I do not like scents that are over powering- has the pink bubble gum scent we all chewed(Red Grapefruit)- very nice and inexpensive
Nivea freshness AS- Just a pleasant fresh scent that fades a little to quick.
Thayers medicated witch hazel - I like the clove and spices scent but it fades quickly.

 

I love the scent of Lucky Tiger. That's a great orange scent and I wish they made a matching cologne. I actually wrote the company suggesting that, but the answer was.... "NO".

Apart from the scent, it feels good on the skin. Doesn't burn at all, but many times I do like the burn. Like it's killing evil shaving germs or something.

 

Pinaud Clubman because it is cheap and my wife loves it.

 

This one's grown on me these last few months.

I’m thinking my list could run on a bit...

Okay, here’s a couple more

And I forgot the “why” part - Because, that’s why.

 

I like aftershaves with skin food. That being said my favorites in order are:
1. Chatillon Lux - almost any scent (I have 6 so far) the only one I don't care for is Gratiot League Square as it has a strong Leather scent and I don't care for leather scents. CL just feels different (in a good way) than most aftershaves and is long lasting.
2. Stirling - I have 4 but my favorite is Executive Man (their take on Creed Aventus)
3. B &M Reserve Classic. Smells great and lasts along time. I also have Seville but don't like it quite as much.
4. Speick - just a great all around aftershave. Feels great on the face. Scent is not long lasting, however.
5. Proraso - I have the red and the green. I wear the red in the colder months and the green in the summer. I prefer the green.

I have a Fine (L'Orange Noir) nice smelling but didn''t make my list of favorites because they really have no skin food.

 

Bought a $1 bottle of Spice at Family Dollar yesterday. Weak, about 50% what it ought to be. Added a few droppers full O.S. Burley and now it's very unusual but very nice.

 

I've mixed Avon Leather and Avon Spicey ... that's very nice as well.

 

Henri & Victoria Cognac and Cuban Cigars is one of, if not my favorite. It is also one of the longest lasting on me.

 

Skin Bracer has a warm, unsophisticated, honest fragrance that I never grow tired of. My dad and one grandad both wore it, so my brain probably got programmed.

Clubman is more sophisticated than Skin Bracer (that's not saying much), and has that traditional barbershop smell everyone refers to. It's very affordable, and a little goes a long way. I love it, and own a gallon.

Lucky Tiger performs its duties well, and economically. It has a light, pleasant scent that fades quickly to make way for anything else.

Osage Rub smells like a mix of Scope and Listerine, and I LOVE splashing a tablespoon of it on my freshly shaved face. I also mix it 50/50 with Lucky Tiger.

I own a lot of other aftershaves and colognes, but these are my favorite.

 

Where did you get a GALLON of Clubman???

 

Buying in bulk.

 

Fleur de France
Without a doubt.

 

I hope my next Avon will be the Leather. Still a ways to go on the Maxwell '23 Tribute though.

 

Well, it's probably worth repeating

 

John, I believe Mr. RetLEO7 isn't with us anymore....not sure what happened, but I thought I'd reply to what he said anyway .

 

Paul, I enjoyed your response

 

If I had a gallon of ANY aftershave, I'd have to negotiate my way past it to get to my tub/shower.

 

Only a single 6oz bottle graces my bathroom at a time.
