Which aftershave do you use?
Discussion
Well my offer was accepted on that Kenneth Cole RSVP. First time I've ever bought half a bottle of aftershave.
Current favourites are:
Tom Ford Ombre Leather
Tom Ford Costa Azzurra
Tom Ford Noir
Dior Sauvage
I should point out, these are all gifts from family members, I'd never spend that much on myself.

Any experience with Dupeon & Copycat fragrances?
I’ve had my order from Noted Aromas, all 5ml samples and all good. Decent 5ml bottles & atomisers vs TEV.
The Milan is lovely!! I can’t tell much difference between this and Tom Fords Ombré Leather, it’s really nice and I’ll get the 100ml.
Rome (Aventus) yeah a bit similar but not really, smells better than the scent reserve & essence vault versions. Both these smell exactly the same to me but nothing like Aventus, way too sweet & perfumey.
Monte Carlo (BR 540) nice, very close to the original & better than TSR’s version. I’d buy again.
Athens (Invictus) lovely. Smells exactly the same to my bottle. 100% buy again
Aspen (silver mountain water) lovely again, very close to mine.
Longevity, I’m getting around 6 hours out of Milan, 4 out of Rome the other 3 last a good 8-9 hours.
TEV I had:
461 (BR 540) not keen, smells like a cheap aftershave, Noted Aromas was miles better.
200 (Aventus) smells exactly the same as TSR’s version. Too sweet and nothing like Aventus. Noted Aromas was better but still not great.
411 (Green Irish Tweed) a no from me. Didn’t like it but I’m not keen on the original either.
197 (Sauvage) Lovely. I’d buy again.
Next will be going through the different Armaf CDIM bottles. I think this will be my new hobby! And get expensive!!!!

I’ve only tried the three I blind bought in 100ml:
PDM Layton (Manilla) - Smells identical to the 10ml sample I had of the real thing. Don’t like it enough to warrant buying a full bottle if that makes sense, but like to have the clone.
Creed Virgin Island Water (St Thomas) - I have a sample of the real thing currently - there isn’t much in it. Great for the money.
Acqua Di Parma Colonia (Dallas) - My favourite of the 3, smells fantastic and as it’s EDP lasts longer than the real one does. I haven’t smelled the real one in ages to compare likeness but from memory it’s close.
They seem a higher quality than TEV and others. £60 gets you 3x100ml, bargain.
