It took me a few days to gather my thoughts for this one, but here it is in no particular order:
-Spanish Leather
-English Leather
-Musgo Real
-Old Spice
-Bay Rum (Dominica is my fav)
-Pinaud Clubman
-Domenico Caraceni
It was tough, but I had to leave out Tabac. It would likely have shown up if this was the Immortal Eight thread.... :)

Penhaligon's Racquets, Endymion, Hammam.
Original Aramis and that house's Tuscany.
Old Spice
Safari
Looking at that list, I guess it's clear I'm an old f@#%t.

I've only worked up to three definite Immortals, so far:
- Italian Floid
- Solea
- Murray and Lanman's Florida Water
Another interesting list would be "A/S or fragrances I'm forbidden to wear but keep anyway". Got a few of those for the days my memory slips. :w

Obie,

I already have the GFT Spanish Leather; Awesome as you called it so now on the way is:
5. No. 6 (Caswell-Massey)
6. No. 74 Victoria Lime (Taylor of Old Bond Street)
on my waiting list is 7. Blenheim Bouquet (Penhaligon's)
To round out my Immortal seven I have to add
Captain's Choice Bay Rum and Ogallala Bay Rum
My entire Clubman line up rolls in and out.
Thanks Obie for all the stellar reviews, opinions and advice Sir.

Im new to straight shaving (have ordered a razor but hasnt arrived yet), so I can only comment from my experience with cartridge razors, but my favourite by far (Ive tried about 2 dozen) is "Wild Lime and Vetiver: aftershave lotion from Perfect Potion, an Australian brand, all natural and top quality ingredients, animal friendly, and about $30 for a 50ml (1.69Fl. oz.). Feels and smells fantastic. Also, rather than splash it into hands then onto face, I bought a little spray to for a few bucks that screws into the top, so one spray on each cheek then I proceed to rub it into face and neck. A bottle lasts quite a while. Not sure if Perfect Potion ships internationally, but if if they do and postage wasn't excessive I would certainly suggest anyone interested gives it a try.
