Which aftershave do you use?
Discussion
This week has been all about Zoologist.
Panda, Beaver and Macaque were all really nice, green fresh scents lasting a good 8 hours or so. The scent equivalents of a Hendrick's and Cucumber or a Monkey 47 and Lime. All worth consideration of a full bottle.
Rhinoceros today and damn we're back into challenging territory again. Very boozy, then smoke, tar and leather. Similar and possibly more potent than Amouage Interlude. Too strong and dark for summer, this one would suit a cold and chilly Halloween or alternatively you could roll in the embers of a post Guy Fawkes morning.

Any suggestions on places to sell part used fragrances?
I've got a 90% full 100ml bottle of Tom Ford Neroli Portofino, which I want to sell so I can try something else.
Is there somewhere 'good' I can sell it on?
Selling a part used bottle of aftershave has to be one of the pikiest things ever posted on PH. I've got a 90% full 100ml bottle of Tom Ford Neroli Portofino, which I want to sell so I can try something else.

I've given away all the 1/2/5ml samples on PH which I've not liked but having paid nearly £40 for 30ml of Erolfa it'd be nice to see a little back for it if possible. It's an expensive aftershave, not a pair of used pants and someone who likes Erolfa might like a bargain.

I didn't dislike it either but I didn't like it enough to buy a bottle. I could be convinced to buy a bottle of TF Noir Anthracite and Tobacco Vanille though...!

I’ve had two TF Tobacco Vanille bottles now (100ml), and love the stuff. I will definitely keep buying it, despite the price.I didn't dislike it either but I didn't like it enough to buy a bottle. I could be convinced to buy a bottle of TF Noir Anthracite and Tobacco Vanille though...!

I still have most of a 30ml (it's had a handful of sprays) of Creed Erolfa if anyone wants to take it off me? Paid £37.10 for it from Tom's Creed Decants, if anyone would like it for £25 delivered message me through here.
I’ve dropped you a message, buddy! Pulse said:

It's odd; when I first tried it I hated it but it's one you need to put on about 30 mins before you leave as it settles really nicely. I still have most of a 10ml from Scent Samples left, might get a full bottle when that runs out.
I loved it, and tried it at the airport a few times. After a year or two (yep!), I finally bought a bottle for £215! You have money in your PayPal now! Hopefully I did it right.

Tried a sample of Creed Santal and I must say it’s very nice, it was one of them samples off eBay so not sure if it’s the original, longevity isn’t all that and I won’t buy one unless a few people say otherwise.
Proper OS is lovely and sticks around well in my experience - could be the ebay one has been diluted down. Had an email from Tom at Tom's Creed Decants, he'll have some in within a week or so so get it from him if you're going to get some.Pulse said:

Cheers, email me your address, it'll help the postie a bit.
Received! Sorry for the late reply, been crazy busy recently. It smells really good! Sadly longevity (on me, anyway) is max 2 hours. Something to wear on an evening out.

Tom now has Original Santal in - just ordered some.

Says he may expand to some of the TF range too which would be good.

Just discovered my bottle of Bleu de Chanel is bone dry. Not a drop left. What are the chances of half a bottle of aftershave evaporating in 6 months? Haven’t used it since the start of the year.
Stored in the bathroom, not in direct sunlight. The bottle is well sealed, cap secure and never removed.
