Thread: Girlfreind does not like my after shave

ah yes.. this has been a problem for me in the past as well.. a few girls ago i was forbidden to wear the pinaud clubman original.. yet the bay rum was allowed.. i traded up for a girl who liked both..

just try something else that you'll both like.. and i stress "BOTH LIKE".. do not wear something you don't care for simply because she does..

i find most girls in my dating age range like old spice.. give that a try and see what happens.

The correct answer, of course, is to have her buy all your aftershaves - with her money.

She'll be happy, you'll have 500 aftershaves she loves and you'll be able to spend that money you're not spending on aftershaves on something else - MORE SHAVING STUFF!

In the past I tested different AS. I learned that the smell of the cheap ones my wife likes more (and me too).
Since a few month I only use Old Spice and Brut.
Test it and love it.

I always ask for Old Spice Classic for xmas... I always get it. Great stuff.

That's easily fixed.
Just drag her in to a perfumerie one day and start the testing.
Find something that works for both of you, don't stop testing 'till you do.
We can recommend a lot of stuff, but we all have different preferences in what is a nice smell, and what is not.

+1! Although perhaps a little less of the dragging (hey, girls do like shopping anyways) and perhaps a nice romantic dinner after
Good luck.

HAha yes i plan on being with her for a long time, and i wondered the same thing why see does not like the smell of clubman

MAN YOUR A GENIUS, she loves it and i love it thanks a lot buddy

I'd give up the girlfriend before I would give up the Clubman.

If you can find one you both like it will bring you together, and she will appreciate your effort. Smell is such an emotionally rich sense, you want it working for you-- not against you

This is great advice.

Glad you found one you like. FWIW; my wife likes Stetson, but also likes English Leather. Easy to find. Pretty cheap.

Peace,
