Jim, the scents are very close. I believe the aftershave scent is supposed to be a clone. I've had very few men's colognes, but this one is an all-time favorite. The Parfum is more concentrated than cologne, so I think you get more for your money. I've been using the same bottle for two years, and I've still got most of it left. One spray is all you need, and the scent is just enough and relatively long lasting. I've never seen it on sale in the stores. I got a discount on my bottle in a duty-free shop. If you plan to travel in the near future, this might be a nice way to pick up a bottle. Have a great Wednesday.
Thank you, Charlie! I hope I am not traveling any time soon ( ), but I will definitely keep that in mind if I do.
You have a first rate lineup Charlie. I really should consider the d’Hermes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thank you both. The surgeon is running behind so with a little luck they’ll get started within the next hour or so. I’ll keep you posted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thank you, Clint. I could stick with this set up for a long time and be happy with it. Yes, please give the TDH a try. I think you will like it! I hope everything goes very smoothly for you all today. Living near Atlanta, I'm sure you have access to some of the world's best medical care.
I tried a cleaning method that really did a number on boar bristles. Vinegar is a diluted acid. mixing with water reduces the effect of removing mineral deposits on the bristles. I was hoping to clean a couple well broken in boars, but ended up softening them quite a bit. Might have been too rich of a vinegar solution, or left in for too long. Enjoying the scritch and backbone of my boars I was a little disappointed by how soft they became. Keep in mind Charlie's following prophetic comment; ( And Neal's disclaimer that I added to my signature. )
Beautiful photo and lineup Doug! Well, I would've removed the leaf above the log. Too much contrast, and very distracting. And, the branch next too it. Maybe crop the skyline down a little bit.... Kidding!! I certainly can't show any of my shaving gear your pics. They'd be jealous, since they never get to leave the bathroom, let alone go for a walk in nature!
Thank you gentlemen. I have been taking an online course in outdoor SOTD photography. It's been a really good class. I have learn a lot. The instructor is a guy by the name of @Douglas Carey over at TSDU. He has made go outside off my comfort zone and look for shots outside. I didn't know what I had Andrew until this morning when I started Googling the decanter. It didn't come with the box when I got it. It's called the Big Blue Whistle. It is supposed to be a police whistle. I guess that is why it's blue. From what I found it is from the early '70's. I picked it up for what was inside. Online I have seen it with Spicy and what I have, Tai Winds.
How do you like the Tai Winds ? Any ideas on what its comparable to ? Wild Country reminds me a whole lot of Stetson.
Ummmmm? I thought kind of like their Brisk Spice almost. A little more Stetsony. I am not the best one to ask about scents. Though now that you have I will check again this evening and ask the Wife What she thinks than get back to you.
I would agree with Clint. Shambala and Capri are very similar. Shady Past is a nice aftershave, but again not far removed from Shambala and Capri. In order of likability I would say Capri, Shady Past, and then Shambala.
