Thread: Favorite cheap cologne and aftershave?

Of those that I've had an opportunity to use -- which isn't really a lot -- these two are it...

• Aqua Velva (U.S., cheap)
• Hâttric (European, not so cheap but better than the 3T's cost)

I have received more compliments on this aftershave than any other scent i have ever used.

It's called Colorado Sage by Jess Bell. Made by Bonnie Bell Inc. Lakewood, Ohio 44107.

It was very popular in the mid sixties when I was in college. They used to have great ads in the magazines featuring Bogart, Gary Cooper and the Lone Ranger.

It's great stuff.

I agree!

*A great "Ban-Fer-The-Buck"!

Right now, I gotta go with Skin Bracer AS by Mennen. As for cologne, I have some Vetiver (the sweet kind) that was made by a girl down around Baltimore...excellent stuff, and at this rate, it will last me until I'm dead

old spice fresh aftershave classic colonge

Boosters Iced Lime

Depends how cheap. Probably clubman bay rum for me.

Aftershave: Aqua Velva Ice Blue or Ice Sport, Body Crystal Bay Rum with Lime

Cologne: John Varvatos, L'Occitane Vetiver or Eau de Baux

(The colognes aren't literally "cheap" like the aftershaves are. But at about $45, their scent quality and complexity are far ahead of most under $100. So to me, that's cheap).

That or Pinaud-Clubman (which is one of the few scents where the ladies ask if they can work next to me).

For cheap AS I go for Adidas Pure Sport

Pinaud as the absolute cheaperst....the older ladies think I smell great the younger ones think I smell like baby powder or their grandpa's and I'm only 35...hehe

But bang for the buck its Speick 12 bucks and smells awesome, spicy light fragrant, my fav.
