    From the drug store, I really like Stetson and Barbasol.

    I like the powdery finish of Stetson. It also lasts quite a while.

    Barbasol feels nice and fresh.

    Clubman and Lilac Vegetal. And a long time ago some one got me a gift of Eau de Polecat, or something like that. I still have most of it. I use it for mosquito repellant......

    Old Spice. My wife declared Brut to be the 70's version of Axe. Her loss.

    In my area I can get Old Spice, Clubman and Aqua Velva Ice Blue, all of which I love!

    Old Spice and Aqua Velva are easily obtainable where I am, but Clubman is rarely ever seen.

    Old Spice is eternal.
     
  9. Nivea works amazingly for myself and the smell is incredible but personal, just enough! Any ideas as to what creates the scent?

    Aqua Velva and Old Spice are my favorites from my local drug store.

    I picked up a supermarket brand recently which is an Aqua Velva knockoff for $1.99. Not too shabby.

    Just so I'm clear, that was 7 ounces for $1.99! Menthol scent too!

    All my AS are pretty much drugstore classics! I buy them all at either walgreens (online and b&m) and the local grocery.

    She knows it's a "stray woman repellent." Smart gal you've got there.

    To actually contribute to this thread, I'll add Old Spice and Master's Bay Rum. The Master's I get at Sally's (it's also where I get those tube keys for my shaving cream). Sally's sells them for hair coloring tubes, but they work great for shave cream and toothpaste tubes.

    I tried Aqua Velva Musk once-probably during college. I'm not above trying it again sometime.

    Must have been the Namath factor(to lead your wife to that declaration).
