You forgot moth balls!!!!

I have taken to diluting it as well! Stuff stays way too strong otherwise!

Most overpowering, aplomb indeed

this is actually the one thing i do not like about clubman, i love the smell and the burn and everything else about it except for the oilyness (is that a word?). i still use it but only in the winter time every now and then when it is really dry outside.

I love the original Clubman, got the vanilla scent as well. The original is just too strong for me though. After i got my bottle, I got a few of those little 1 oz. pump spray bottles and put it in one of them. When I'm ready to use it, I just wet my hands in the sink and pump out two sprays on one hand. Rub my hands together and apply.

You still get some of the burn and it dilutes it down so it's not too strong. Really, I shave my head too and two pumps covers my bald head and my face just perfect.

I put just barely enough to get the shaved area wet.

+1 to InspectorInjector
The Special Reserve is strong to me. The other scents--not so much

LOVE the smell of Clubman original, though I don't use it myself as I'll smell butch rofl.

I got some for my hubby though and we both like it a great deal, I am currently attempting to get him to pick up either a DE or a Strait lol, will see

I initially started out using it as a splash after a shave, but man my already dry skin would NOT tolerate that at all. So...I started applying it like a cologne, a dab or two behind the ears and maybe a bit along the collar area and presto good smelliness lol.

As Red said I been using Pinaud Clubman original for quite a while, it reminds me a bit of Brute but has an even better scent and throughout the day I catch whiffs of it and pick up diff little smells here and there...anyone ever catch the scent on sandalwood in there? It smells like sandalwood to me, but likely is one of the moss' or whatever.

I DO have ONE cologne that I am REALLY wanting but atm cannot afford, and that is Trumpers Eucris that stuff smells SO darn good. I got a sampler of it through an order at Shave Nation and wow I love it, saving it and using it sparingly until I can nab a bottle later on.

Go ahead and try it, you never know! Maybe you will start a new trend.

Now this be a true story bout Lilac vegetal.

Here in New Mexico we used to execute people in the State Pen with the Gas Chamber until they ruled it inhumane. One day one of the guards had confiscated some package sent to a prisoner and the guard was taking it down a corridor passed death row. One of the inmates grabbed the guard tryin to get the keys and in the struggle the guard hit the inmate right over the head with the bottle. Of course it broke and within seconds that inmate was on the floor thrashing and jerking and begging for his life. By the time the medics came he be dead with a horrible look frozen on his face.
