CaD all the way. I saw you mentioned Aloha Smackdown too.....certainly a different category vs. CaD but absolutely my favorite sweet fruit smell ever. I don't use it much but it is stellar when you are in that type of mood. Chocolate Bourbon too, it's light on bourbon but an amazing chocolate. I'd also swear it's somehow the slickest of the four PAA soaps I've had.

Deja Fougere in the big tin
Love it. Pineapple fern smell

Thinking of buying another. Don't mind the $10 postage to UK if the product is good

Question is what one

Thinking either

Cad
The Beach
Aloha Smackdown
Gondolier

I like robust strong scents and looking for one different from the Deja Fougere

If you could pick one what one would you go for?

The Beach is my new favorite. I also have the matching after shave splash. Wonderful long lasting scent.

Got the HTGAM Gondolier being sent out from a member in The Shaving room forum (UK). Looking forward to trying it out

Gondolier is my favorite of their scents, but I am going to try Deja Fougere at some point, too.
Coconut Bay is a sweet bay rum that is very nice as well.

Just a word of warning , I bought the Deja Fougere soap and splash while I was in the States on holiday and it sounded right up my street but I found it to be very floral. If you like that then great but it was just too floral for me amd I moved it on. Razorock Zi Peppino was nice to me but even that was a bit too floral but the Deja Fougere was even more so.

No problem, I'm not trying to put anyone off but like I said I thought from the description it would be something I'd really enjoy but in the end I found it very floral and if you're not someone who likes floral scents it may not be for you. Happy buying! Incidentally Gondolier is my favourite from PAA , I'm wearing it right now.

Only tried the one scent from PAA- The Deja Fougere in both the soap and aftershave. I find the scent intoxicating. I predominantly get a strong sweet pineapple. Yes floral tones there too more so on the aftershave. Not overly fern in my opinion.

sorry about that Slyfox! we do all our labels in house, it keeps costs down and allows us to offer our customers over 40 plus scents at a fair price. hopefully we can sort that out some day soon, but we are aware of our stupidity! :Smileope that makes sense sir!

CAD - Chocolate Bourbon & Cavendish are all in my rotation.
CAD is my favorite barber shop scent - The aftershave is stellar!
