Aftershave. Do you bother or not?

[PaulB]

I have a keen nose so am rather partial to fragrances so this is something that interests me.

I'm quite partial to the Creed range of sniffys but recently came across a fantastic aftershave from Tom Ford. Very expensive but a lovely scent.

What do you go for?

If I can be arsed then whatever wifey bought me 5 years ago, think its Fahrenheit?

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Aftershave? Never. Why would I put alcohol on my freshly shaved skin?

Eau de Toilette or cologne? Every day.

 

[gavroche]

never wear anything on my face. Just shave, rinse with water and that's it.

I don't wear any perfume.

^ that +1.
Never really appealed, any more than man makeup does. I'll admit to using hand moisturiser though

I like the Hugo Boss range of colognes. I've got 4 different ones and they're all quite subtle rather than the 'shouty' stuff favoured by many of less advanced years than me

Recently my young daughters spent some (though I am guessing not much!) of their pocket money on some after shave for my recent birthday from a market stall. I can't remember the name, but from the smell it shoudl have been Eau de cat urine, and the first time I used it (at their insistance) it had a similar effect on my skin to Nitromors.

occasionally wear it but usually not

Boss bottled at the minute but my favourite of all time is E'goiste by Chanel but you just cant find it anywhere anymore.

Think it might make my beard stink a bit! Wash and go man here.

I seldom use any perfume, I derive no pleasure from it.

 

[numbnuts]

WD40 or Black Suede by Avon

Day to day - nowt
If going out or a dress-up do - a splash of Paul Smith (Extreme is the nicest).

I prefer the smell of GT85. .

I only wear a beard.

Blimey I hope it's a really long one.

Not too long though. Getting that caught in your fixie chain would be a tad uncomfortable.
