Just the basic, easily available ones in the U.S. Current production only. If you had to pick just one (yes, just one, just for fun). I cannot pick between Brut Splash and A.V. Musk so me no vote.
I picked Clubman due to its versatality. My other choice on that list would've been AV Musk, which I actually like better, but couldn never wear it on a daily basis or use it as my one and only.
I've only been using the Clubman for a couple of days now, but I like that it isn't just alchohol and scent. It has the other antibacterial agents as well. It's been a long time since I've used an aftershave, and it's nice the way it feels like my pores contract as it dries.
Aqua Velva would be a stronger contender for me, if the dispenser were easier to control. Compared to other splashes, it's really difficult for me to regulate the amount of product I get in my palm with it. As a result, Clubman got my vote for both scent and moisturizing properties - surprising from a splash with alcohol.
Pinuad Clubman original is one of my favorites because I can get it locally...If I could find Pinaud VI Bay Rum locally then it would undoubtedly take first place...
Probably Skin Bracer, if I had no other choice; maybe Brut. My wife isn't terribly keen on the majority of "Old Man" scents on that list.
It was a toss up between Aqua Velva and Pinaud Clubman. I had to go with the AV since I couldn't choose both.
I screwed on the white flip-top dispenser from a tall Osage Rub-type bottle and it fit fine. Reduces the flow nicely.
I just started using old spice and like it but if I could only have 1 then it's Aqua Velva Ice Blue for me.
I would have to go with Pinaud Clubman. It's my favorite regardless of price or availability, the fact that is affordable and easily found is a bonus.
I've not used any aftershave in the past, (just witch hazel or a balm) but about 2 weeks ago I decided to try the Clubman after reading so much about it here. I have to admit, I like how it makes my face feel, and I like the smell also. On the third day of Clubman, Ms. Wifey looked at me and sniffed, then said, "Old Man". I replied, "as usual dear, you are exactly right. I am an old man. Lord, but you've a firm grasp of the obvious." I escaped with minor injuries...
