FWIW (and I hope it's ok to post this), included in the fragrance samples I just posted on BST is a sample of Houbigant Fougere Royale if anyone wished to see what it was like.

Reckon so; not sure. An original sample from Houbigant.  FWIW, the whole lot is sold right now pending funds.

Can't go wrong with Skin Bracer. I may be biased, but I prefer the vintage stuff.

Don’t forget YSL Rive Gauche pour homme.
Several artisan aftershave have been modeled after it; Fine American Blend, RR American Barber, etc...

A well-known Italian YouTuber user called Luca Dinaro have spoken about Fougere Classique from Barrister and Mann for who is into a more vintage fragrance.

Yeah, what he said.

Good thing it's easy to come by in any old drug store chain. And I rarely like any shaving product from any old drug store chain.
(Okay, my local store has Proraso Green croap too, and that's about it.)

Would recommend Bon Monsieur by Zingari Man....both the shave soap and corresponding splash.

It's supposed to mirror the scent profile of Van Cleef's Tsar...one of the all-time greats of the genre.

You could even buy the actual Bon Monsieur fragrance made by Rogue Perfumery.
Their schtick is that they don't shy away from using real oak moss which is an essential component
of an authentic fougere.
