I currently use Proraso Green, Haslinger Sandalwood, ToOBS Eton, and Ogalla BRw/Burnt Orange.

I love all the scents, but after I rinse with cold water, splash with witchhazel, apply a bit of unscented moisturizer/balm, and a light dusting of Pinaud Talc under the arms, I can't smell the soap or cream.

Not that I like heavy scents, because IMHO there's nothing worse than a guy that slathers on Grey Flannel, Axe, or some other olfactory obscenity . You know the type, you can smell him before you can see him. Uggh. You feel like shaking them, screaming "Advertisers are selling you a myth! Girls like CLEAN, not overpowering!"

But I digress....

Since smell of soaps/creams seems to dissipate fairly quickly, if not immediately, wouldn't it make more sense to pick a soap or cream based solely on the your satisfaction of the lathering qualities and post-shave feeling of the skin? Even if it's unscented?

I guess if I wanted a post-shave scent, but don't want to use an after-shave, balm, or (gasp) cologne, I could always add a drop of the scent I enjoy to my moisturizer.

What do you think?
