    Default 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.

    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.

    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.
