    Used the VIBR this morning. Transformed a rainy Tuesday morning into a trip to the Caribbean.

    St. John's Bay Rum would take ME there(from what I've read).

    Very brave of you to use it in the thick of summer, I must say. Cloves&summer don't mix for me.

    I don't really get clove when I slap it on. But that could be just me.

    They make samples of this for a couple dollars. I personally use all of the Clubman AS's except the Vegetal Lilac. VIBR is great stuff I always get compliments on how I smell when I wear it, also get lots of compliments on the regular Clubman and the Musk as well. Not so much on the lime sec or the vanilla for some reason.

    Well I'll be dipped... when ever I saw this bottle I always thought it was hair tonic for some reason. Looks like I need to try this out, just ordered a sample bottle.

    :happy069: Another shave with Route 66 "Rum Runner". Finished with Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum for that "fresh as an island breeze" feel.

    Although it's rainy here in Central NJ, I'm enjoying the island sun after finishing off my R E D Friday shave with the Virgin Island Bay Rum A/S by Clubman.
    "Fresh as an island breeze".
    No worries mon!

    Do you have Polo Red?

    No, I do not. I'm unfamiliar with the Polo line. Any good?

    I'll find out if I try Stirling's Polo Blu. I used to subscribe to Men's Health Magazine, which would include in various pages those "sniff sheets"(for lack of what they really are, lol), so I could do "sniff tests". I did like the set (Red, Blue, Green) very much. But too expensive for me.

    Another R E D Friday, another shave with Route 66 "Rum Runner" by @Salty Belle. Followed of course by the one and only Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum After Shave. The Bay Rum A/S others aspire to be!

    Interesting you describe it as "The Bay Rum others aspire to be". I read once-I think on the Clubman website-something to the effect: "Other aftershaves that cost much more have tried to duplicate Clubman, but they just can't do it"(talkinabout the Original, but I suppose now that I think about it, ALL of Ed's variety).
