Which aftershave do you use?
Discussion
I rotate between:
- Jean Paul Gautier Le Male. Been using this for years. Perhaps overused but a decent nonetheless.
- Bleu de Chanel.
- Ralph Lauren Polo Blue. The Blue Sport is also very decent.
- Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue - light summer fragrance. Girls at work seem to really like this one.

Really surprised at the amount of blokes who still wear aftershave. IMO as bad a a woman with cheapo perfume.
Why would a man wearing good to high quality aftershave be at all similar to a woman wearing 'cheapo perfume'?Is there anything wrong with smelling nice?
Of course if you completely doused yourself in something nasty then yes, you wouldn't be popular to those you sit right next to at work, but no one here is advocating that kind of aftershave use.

Never fails to amaze me just how intolerant and judgemental people can be

Come to think of it, I think he works in our office.

OK, so the sample of Creed came in the post.
I feel like a sexy motherfker and I can't wait to see if the missus jumps on me when she gets home later!

There's a few Creed's I want to try, just debating whether to buy 10ml of each one, can't imagine I'd get more than one spray from 2ml!

I went for 5ml of the Creed Aventus, 5ml of Terre d'Hermes and 5ml of Farenheit. I think there's enough in a 5ml bottle to give you a fair few outings!
Did you get the Eau Fraiche of the Hermes? That one lasts all day long. Went for 10ml of Silver Mountain and Green Irish Tweed in the end, looking forward to trying them when they land.

Joop Homme (the red one) has been my favourite for a long time. I'm currently using another Joop (the green one, can't remember the name off hand) but it's not that great to be honest.
If anyone is into Penhaligon there is currently a great offer in the Bichester Village outlet shop.
Normal price is about 90 GBP per bottle. They are doing 2 bottles for 70 GBP. And if you spend over 130 GBP you get a free bottle. All mix and match.
I got 5 bottles of Sartorial for 140 GBP which struck me as insanely cheap.

I will try some of the Irish Tweed.
They also sent me a free 1ml sample of Creed Royal Oud - haven't tried that yet.
This morning I've gone for a little squirt of Fahrenheit - very nice.
That Green Irish Tweed is the absolute business, just ordered a full size bottle. And, as it's 100ml, it's not bad value. Obviously not cheap, but I can see the value in it at that cost.They also sent me a free 1ml sample of Creed Royal Oud - haven't tried that yet.
