Thread: The First Aftershave

Old-Spice.. Still use it too. It's what my grandpa used, what my dad used, and what I use... though I have also added Truefitt and Hill, Stetson and British Sterling to the mix these days.

Man that was loong ago, I remember using Denim the most.
Most used one recently Nivea aftershave balm.

Very good question, Obie.

I'm almost sure that it was Old Spice and the year was 1979 or 1980.
Still using it.

The first balm would be the older Perry Ellis stuff... first real alcohol based AS was Adidas sport... now I mainly use Clubman AS and Nivea AS balm!

For me: gravity and aspen.

brut was mine it was one of the 2 or 3 my step father used and he taught me to shave in a gas staition restroom of all places and is also a looooong story there but now hes gone to the great beyond but brut is still one of my favorites

Avon Wild Country in a horsehead shaped bottle. My sister gave it to me for my birthday with the promise I give her back the bottle. She collected horsey stuff. I still use it occasionally but have matured into more sophisticated scnets. And she still has the bottle.

I think I used either Canoe or Pinaud Clubman. I'm guessing that would have been around 1995-96?

Some of you older guys have a better memory than me. I am nursing a small hangover, though.

Late 70's, Old Spice if I recall right but might also been Tabac, Denim or Blue Stratos.
Amund.

I'm pretty sure it was Old Spice....I probably got it as gift....
