    Default nice smelling aftershave?

    I was just using skin bracer aftershave until I saw clubman lilac vegetal after shave and gave it a try. I love the way it feels and works but my wife is always saying I smell like an old man...lol I would like some recomendations on some that are a bit more modern and maybe have a bit more of a cologne smell=ie:not old man smell....lol Thanks

    proraso may fit the bill. It's one of my favorites in both the scent and performance department.

    I'm mostly an Aqua Velva Ice Blue or Bay Rum guy myself.

    But Aqua Velva also makes a really great aftershave named Aqua Velva Ice Sport. You get a similar bracing feeling as your Clubman, but the scent is much more modern, a bit like Davidoff's Cool Water, if that means anything. It also has some ingredient in it that my skin really likes, maybe the glycerin. It doesn't have the same level of menthol cooling that AV Ice Blue has, but it still feels great and has a nice scent.

    It's inexpensive like Clubman too, so if you don't like it, you're not out much money. Wal-mart has it. Looks like this:

    If your wife doesn't like the smell of it have her go buy you something she likes. My wife buys all my cologne and aftershave anymore, and it's worked out well. It also makes it very easy.

    I like sandalwood ASes. Ogallala has some interesting bay rums, also with nice mixtures (sandalwood, peppercorn & lime or something along those lines), very nice.
