Thread: Aftershave or cologne?

I don't use colognes but I always equated them with long-lasting scents. Maybe they are just more concentrated and not also formulated to last a long time. I like AS's; the experience of using them is mostly for me anyway. I don't want to smell like them, just smell them as part of the shave experience.

I totally agree

Like Myrsol Lemon. I love it. But I don’t want to smell like a lemon ALL day.

Thanks for that. I haven’t heard that one in a long time.

Many of mine can be too strong to use before work, like Floid, Tabac, & Pinaud Clubman, (depending on how much you use, and I use lots). This doesn't usually apply to me though, because I normally shave at night. I use cologne during the day. Sometimes I can still smell the aftershave in the morning!
