Another aftershave

Ive been using Old Spice and the knock-off Spice you can get at dollar store, plus i have a nice Sandlewood but i want to find something else. I dont want to spend a lot of money. I see a lot of guys use Pinaude. Any others that you would recommend?
BTW, i started with English Leather as it had no alcohol and didnt sting but the brief sting dont bother me now. The English Leather and Sandlewood have a nice scent but smell a bit ??? If they were beers id say they smell full bodied, thick. I like them but think im looking for freash? I dont know. I like a strong scent and a spicy but neing new to A.S. im kinda lost.

Fine. Makes some nice stuff
Stetson, is nice. No alcohol..!!

Can't go wrong with Pinaud. Join us for Clubman Friday. :beer2:

Clubman also doesn't have a sting. Well at least for me

Proraso! I got a barber size bottle a few months back. Absolutely love the stuff. I think the allantoin really helps your skin.

Checked on the Fine. It has Menthol. I tried Menthol once and after i pealed my face off the cieling from the burn i decieded Menthol was no good. I dont mind a nice burn from some alcohol but menthol is just dont work for me. Im taking notes and will be buying a couple of your sugestion in a couple days. Birthday is coming up and i know the wife is going to ask. I already told her a MK31 but i dont think thats going to happen. Ha.

This stuff is nice if your looking for something different.. and you like vetiver.

Aqua Velva Musk is nice, and its cheap.. you can find it in drugstores.

Have you tried Bay Rum? It's a classic and usually has spices like cinnamon, clove, etc.

Was just thinking about your search as I put on some Pinuad Clubman Special Reserve this morning.
It has the spicy smell you are looking for I believe

Good luck in your search my friend

Thanks for the replys gentlemen. I got tied upbyezterday and wasnt able to get back. I have tried the Bay Rum. The Clove turned me off as my Ex used to smoke clove cigs. Dont need flashbacks from 30 yrs ago!
I think ill have give the Pinaud a go with a couple different ones and try them out. Still watching tk see if something else is recommended.

Aqua Velva is a good choice.

if your looking for cheap I cant help a lot, m wife buys most of my colognes and they aint cheap. but out in the field I get to wear what I like and what John says Aqua Velva, Ice BLue! cant go wrong with it,, now if you want something the wife will like get some John Varvatos Vintage , or Paul Sabastian Design Tc

I'll look into those TC. Big Fancy Names. ha. I ordered some Clubman. Found two scents in 6oz bottles with shipping for under 15 bucks. I figured I could waste that much money if I didn't like it. I read the info on the aqua velva and its a menthol. Dont think I want to try menthol again.

OK, TC, You talked me into it. I ordered the Paul Sabastian Design. Now I got enough smelly stuff to test out for a while. I'm not much into scents but I figured, I'm getting older now, Well the wife says I got old years ago, And I'm growing up, Well the wife says I'm growing out, So I might as well try to smell better than an old fat truck driver.

well clubman has been splashed on us since we we young boys at the barber shop, cant go wrong with it unless you get the Vegetal. that stuff has skunks saying "what smells bad" as for the Design when my wife got it for me, it was one of those, girls coming up close and asking you what it was because they were going to get their husbands some, plus its not as overpowering as some of the oily higher end colognes, the Varvatos is strong but very intoxicating Tc

I read that the Design also lasts a while, where the other one you recommended didn't have the staying power. This is why I went with the one I ordered. Thanks for the help all! I got the reg Clubman and the vanilla. The special reserve being spicy, i figured I got Old Spice for that. And sense Menthol is not my friend I think I'd did ok and thank all for the suggestions.

@tcrideshd, I got all my order in the mail and I do like the "Design". So does the wife. Just wanted to thank you for that one. Oh, And the Pinaud is a nice aftershave. I can see it forever being in my collection of A.S.
I still think I like the Vanilla better than the original. But both are nice.

Rite on, the Cluman Vanilla is a great smelling AS.
And I agree I like it bette than the original, so does the wife
