    Mediterranean Blue Barbershop
    Fougere
    Lavender that is on the darker side. Not a sweet lavender.
    Tobacco
    Sandalwood: But not the dirty earthy kind. I like Proraso Red and Trumpers take on it.
    Vetiver: Preferably a darker version. But I do like some of the lighter one's as well.

    Had give you my top six. as I'm not sure which one I'd have to remove for my top 5.

    On the Vetiver, have you tried the Guerlain version? I'm about to in a few days.

    I have the cologne and it's one of my favorite scents in my collection. Top 5 for sure.

    I know we're talking about aftershaves here. But if your looking to buy the cologne. Try to find an older version of it. I hear it lasts longer and is a slightly better scent. But the newer version is ok too.

    Troy M Prep: Mephitis mephitis musk

    Spice
    Menthol
    Bay Rum ( I can't wait for it to cool off to bring out the Bay Rum again - not so soothing smelling when it is still 100+ around here)

    That's about it. I'm simple

    I like it in cooler weather. I've tried Captain's Choice and Ogallala. I like them both very much. Bay Rum will give a burn for sure, so just be prepared.

    My ex-wife liked them both because they are pretty "clovey" and thought I smelled lightly like a nice Christmas dinner with ham.
